Day five of the AFS Negotiations

Day Five Of The AFS Negotiations

We started the week with hopes of completing the non-economic process by close of negotiations today.

In a show of Solidarity, members from 2nd shift arrived at noon with a surprise lunch for the Negotiating Team. Brother Raymond Poole, Strike Committee Chairman, brought the IAM flag from our local, and we all enjoyed hotdogs and chips and visited on a bright, beautiful afternoon.

At the end of the day, we were able to make two passes which managed to clear some of the less important issues from each side's remaining non-economic list.
Remaining major non-economic issues:

1. Article 35 - Seniority Aspect "You can download the attachment below for the proposal."
2. Overtime
3. Training

Remember, all the above adjectives are in response to the company... But WE WILL continue to be professional providers to our customers needs.
