IAM Strikes Boeing

A lot of reasons for them to vote no but one of those reasons is they’re ripping them off on raises. They give them raises with one hand but take them back with the other by eliminating a bonus program that paid them 3 to 4% yearly.

 
Pretty serious condemnation against the IAM Local 751 and IAM hierarchy when you read all the particulars. These members have a definite right to ask why was a pig 🐷 even brought back for them to vote on much less endorsed by the 751 leadership?

When a membership votes down a deal by near 95% and authorizes a Strike by 96% and particularly because if the Membership didn’t vote yes to Strike by 2/3 vote (What the hell even is that garbage) it would have been implemented) that’s a big pig 🐷

This IAM Local going all the way back to 2008 seems to have a lot of questions they should answer for.

751 isn’t a local lodge. It’s one of the largest District Lodges in the IAM.

I never said it was.

I merely pointed out that Boeing upped their offer, and labeled it "Best And Final Offer"
Which isn’t true as Boeing and the IAM have negotiations scheduled for today.

It was obviously true when I first posted on the matter, as clearly illustrated in the very link you provided ...

" Despite Boeing providing what it described as the final and best offer to its striking machinists in the Pacific Northwest and California, the United States, represented by two different International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) lodges, the company and the unions will sit down for another round of negotiations on September 27. "

Boeing clearly tried to bluff, and got called on it - Good for the striking machinists
 
They seem to be holding out for that pension to come back. Not sure if Boeing is willing to do that.
