If thats what you're looking for then please come out to the next general meeting and state your case.UNIFOR Local 592https://www.blogger.com/profile/11325078369551640127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025702845098461811.post-89204325309934287092007-08-19T10:00:00.000-07:002007-08-19T10:00:00.000-07:00i think we should try to not drag our feet this ti...i think we should try to not drag our feet this time like the previuous two attemps at reaching an agreement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
