I would like to take a minute to thank all of our members for making us the top 3 most organized locals representing 100-249 employees with a 90.6%. That is way awesome but I have set my goal at being number 1 and I will work my butt off to get there. We will have the newest plague to show off at September’s meeting. I would also like to let those of you who have not heard we got a national settlement agreement with management that states there has to be 2 processors on the DBCS at all times except for initial startup and during a 15 minute break and yes this includes Saturday night for Sunday and holidays according to 2012 JCIM article 37 page 76 OCR-BCS-DBCS staffing. I will be asking all Processors to fill out a 1767 every time you are instructed to run by yourself. As always DO NOT REFUSE A SUPERVISORS INSTRUCTIONS. Another topic I would like to touch on is Flint Michigan and there water problems, Sue Carney had hundreds of cases of water which was sold for 1 dollar a bottle or 20 dollars per case which was all donated to the people of Flint, and we also took a donation and in 15 minutes the 2100 plus people in attendance at the convention donated over 12 thousand dollars in cash for a total of 50,000 dollars we sent to Flint Michigan to help fight their struggle with contaminated water. That is just a few of the highlights from our 23rd Biennial National convention. Please check the union board for more great information. And as always thank you for sending me to represent you.
