Brothers and Sisters,
Your Negotiating Committee, along with DBR Walker, BR Mrdjenovich and Organizer Kevin Dimeco, met again with the company to try and iron out some last minute contract issues. After two more passes the company presented its last, best and final offer. The committee spent the rest of the afternoon assembling a summary of all the proposed contract changes.
Please look for the signs directing you to the appropriate door to sign in. We purposely have multiple doors to alleviate any large back ups getting you in. Sign in is by your last name.
Second shift presentation is at 1pm. Doors open at 1230pm. All other members presentation is at 430pm with doors opening at 4pm. Voting will immediately follow the committees presentation. The meetings will be at the Holiday Inn Express at I 95 and 520 (301 Tucker Rd Cocoa Fl)
Come out and listen to the presentation. Vote on the company's last, best and final offer. Don't let someone else decide your future.
