A weak cup of coffee.

YOU KNOW WHAT PISSES ME OFF? THE FACT THAT THE RTD WORKERS ARE STRIKING KNOWING FULL WELL THAT THEY CANT GET A BETTER DEAL FROM MANAGEMENT. THEIR OWN UNION BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDED THEY TAKE THE DEAL, BUT THEY DIDN'T LISTEN. NOW THEY WANT TO GO TO ARBITRATION...TOO LATE FELLAS. YOU HAD A CHANCE TO GO TO ARBITRATION ABOUT A MONTH AGO WHEN YOUR UNION FILED A NOTICE OF INTENT TO STRIKE WITH THE LABOR DEPT. NOW YOUR TOO FAR GONE. I THINK THAT RTD SHOULD JUST FIRE ALL THE PICKETERS WHO DON'T WANT TO WORK. CONTRACT OUT THOSE ROUTES TO LAIDLAW OR CONNEX WHO PROVIDE THE SAME OR BETTER SERVICE LEVELS AT UP TO 25% COST SAVINGS OVER "IN-HOUSE" RUN ROUTES. DON'T THINK THIS RTD THING EFFECTS YOU? GUESS AGAIN. 1% OF EVERY DOLLAR YOU SPEND IN THE METRO AREA GOES TO RTD. YOU PAY FOR IT WHETHER YOU USE IT OR NOT. SEND THE PICKETERS HOME AND GET SOME PEOPLE WHO WANT TO WORK FOR MARKET-RATE PAY BEHIND THE WHEEL. WHILE WE'RE AT IT, LETS THROW THE UNION UNDER THE BUS.
