MY Daily UT Weblog

One after another the dirty-tricks emerge revealing Union Tribune's ruthless campaign against workers' rights.When UT employees attempt to stand up for themselves and try to form a union, we face threats, propaganda, discrimination, intimidation, harassment and even firings.It's wrong, and it's got to stop now!!! AND IT IS AGAINST THE LAW!!!

The Penakbet Aftermath! And a meeting of an old friends!



Today I had received a lot of information about the Penakbet incident aftermath. The incident spread so quickly among my co-workers, sharing facts and views.
Another issue that's being talked about is Marina's resignation. I was informed that she can't stand the pressure anymore! Well we don't know how true is this? I am really amazed how the news spread so quickly among my co-workers!

I also hope the same thing works especially if our union representatives has done a good job we should give them credit when it is due! More power to our union-negotiating team Steve, Sinbad, Benny, Ken & Lynn. We should always be sensible and well informed to what's happening. Take the intiative first. Keep updated! Be informed! All they need is our all-out support and encouragement to succeed. We should get up and stand up and speak out! Let your own voice be heard. So that we protect our rights as a worker! Anyway see you this Sunday on the meeting!!!

But before anything else I just want put on record that Me & Ernie Bayalan were asked by Gregg Johanssen to go to the office and gave our statement to Michael Connors about the incident. With respect to them we did our part as honestly and professionally as it is. Michael Connors told me that he had received an e-mail from Andy Smith about the incident since last night. And Michael C. gave his words to me that he'll do some action on this.
My co-worker Pam Uppal told me that she did saw Alex Alcarion having a meeting with Andy Smith and sent him home yesterday (Friday) and not let him work! Well, that's fair!
I also had a little conversation with Cris Valse ( the Victim). He is still upset about the incident and showed me his medicine, and he is trying to see his doctor as soon as possible! Why not an attorney for some legal actions, right? I told him, Go ahead it is your right!
This time I cannot conclude that the management had done it fairly... we have just to wait 'til next week!
