Hope you all vote NO. You don't need to be influenced or even be smart to see what this is all about people. Read it. It offers NOTHING we aren't already entitled to. We will be giving the DOC what it wants and getting zero in return. Paying it forward so to speak but we already did. We didn't have to give furlough days we lost thousands in holiday pay. Listen... 1. we have a 1% raise pending from july 2010. 2. we are already slated to get 3% in july 2011. Now it is 4% owed. Why would we agree to get 1% this july and not get 3% until next july? 3. they tell us we will get our holiday pay back in july 2012. by then the courts will have ordered it. 4. that comp board proposal is so you will use the time and DOC won't have to pay you for it. 5. The new language only talks about past practice. It doesn't specifically say you will be paid for all 13 holidays. Right now, there is a present and soon to be past practice that the DOC took your holiday pay away. Do not look at any of this as a good thing. There is nothing good about it. Again MCOFU laying down. We got NOTHING for years, no money, no benefits. We pay more in health insurance and still have horrible sick time language. READ IT PLEASE. What ever you do, don't not vote!!!! We have the DOC in a position to bargain...they will not let us get away if it is voted down. The DOC wants to wrap this up by July.
