Who died and made mr.Brown king anytime you have a contract offer you take it to the menbership and give your point of view on whether to accept it or not, if the menbership thinks its a good contract they will vote for it if not they should be smart enough to see that and vote against it, but it shouldn't be up to Mr. Brown to say yes or no.
Willie Brown is an arrogant, bully boy with a fat head. He represents exactly why unions have so little credability any more and have become a liability on society.
It's an absolute disgrace that 5100 people are on strike, the riding public held hostage, and center city is now in grid lock daily, because the head of Septa's local union doesn't like the Mayor of Philadelphia. He should apply the little Ceasar moniker to himself.
He needs to go to jail for his crime.
Oh so again this is about black vs white. Gimme a break with all that nonsense.
Has nothing to do with black vs white flavordave! You have an arrogant leader who did not take the case to the workers, who probably would have accepted the deal. Now, besides himself, he has made his members the most hated people in the city!!! Get your butts back to work! People need their jobs and need to use Septa to get to work so they can pay their bills, keep their homes and feed their families!! Willie you are a jerk!
I appreciate his passion but that's it. So how does a trolley driver become head of a union with a high school education? This is exactly why the general public hates unions. PA is a "will to work" state and as such there should not be any unions. If the regular workers can be terminated for any legal reason then there should be occupations where there is protection through a union, especially one that performs a public service. I would love to see someone do a "Reagan" and tell them that each day they strike the offer gets lower then set a deadline and hire replacements who would love the SEPTA salary and benefits just as they are.
how mant strikes has septa gone on over the years..like 20???!!.. this is a total disgrace... how can that union show complete disregard for the public!!!...going on strike at 3 am....i hope one day that this union get busted wide open!!!!!!!!!!!!!it would be a shame for all of the hard working men and women that work for septa but this is the last straw for me!!!!!!! thay greedy, arrogant union needs to go down!!!!!!!!!
altont is right. Willie needs to serve time for crippling the city
This sucks
This really is not just an attack on SEPTA by the local TWU but an attack on the riders already struggling through these tough economic times. What will only happen is the fare will have to go up again.
"Many union workers are African American, the agency managers largely white" Obviously, this was never about the money, benefits or pension fund, all of which are excellent. It's about a stupid, misplaced sense of entitlement.
He looks like Obama and a 1000 twinkies. Both are the same between the ears.
get rid of septa management they created the problem and nutter is an embarrassment i hope dc33 and dc47 ask for the same raise that nutter volunteered for septa workers
fat slob pig get your men back to work
