Maston is adamant that the decertification effort reflects a vocal but unrepresentative minority, giving little credence to the idea that any of their grievances are legitimate.
“We just came back from our national convention that was in Grand Rapids, Michigan,” Maston said, “and there were well over 1,100 delegates there, probably close to 2,000 rural carriers. And it was not angry people shouting about RRECS.” I asked him if perhaps the people who spent money to attend the union convention might not be a representative sample of unionwide sentiment. “I wouldn’t say that,” he replied. “I would say the people that come to the convention are the most involved and the most educated.”
When asked what he would tell rural carriers considering signing a decertification petition, Maston said, “You need to really read and understand what it actually means to decertify….it is just beyond my understanding why somebody would think that would be a better route to go.”
Maston is an arrogant pr**k who will still collect his fat salary and spend our dues money on free vacations, no matter how low our salaries go. Tick tock, the union’s days are numbered.
Our new presidente is an arrogant pr**k who will still collect his fat salary and spend our dues money on free vacations, no matter how low our salaries go. Tick tock, the union’s days are numbered.
Print out this form and get as many rural craft co-workers to sign it as you can. Send it in to the Southmont, NC address well before the Dec. 28 deadline. They have about 11,000 signatures and need another 26,000 or so:

It’s been said that people get the government they deserve.
If you do not stand up to the NRLCA and continue to get screwed, you will be getting the union you deserve!
