Union-Tribune Seeking More Buyouts Today; Details To Come Later
Yes, you are definitely right...the way they present this VSP II (Voluntary Seperation Program II), this is what they called this program...is very unprofessional! This is a sequel to the Christmas Massacre 2007. There are lots of confusions going on in the workplace, a lot o questions.Because of the limited time they give to those who are qualified and do their homework and be able to come up to a right decision for their family is not enough. Again they used "FEAR" as their weapon against these new ordinary part-time workers. And they want to get rid of those people who believes that their basic human right is being violated every working days! All they want are new people here who doesn't know anything! They dont want any good worker in UT. They only want workers who are lazy & ass kisers who will protect their easy-paying job and put all the blame & workloads to these ordinary hardworking people. "Unbelievable...a very dirty game...a modern slavery in modern times...what a shame! They should know that by this time the silent majority knows everything what is going on! They just keep silent because they need to pay their bills on time. As they say "Is this the future of your workers?" " Are these things makes cents or are these really makes senses at all?" THEY JUST POSTED THE ANNOUNCEMENT LIKE AN ORDINARY WEEKLY WORK SCHEDULE!!!" Yah...we know they dont respect these people! I wish good luck to the future owner of this hundred year-old newspaper.I remind them "They are dealing with human beings & not colony of ants!~"They should be a good leader...in leadership "Communication is good but consideration is the best!" They can always ignore this but in reality this is the truth! Please stop brainwashing this poor workers.... we are in 21st century....wake up guys! http://thecharmsquad.blogspot.com/— September 11, 2008 5:27 p.m.
Union-Tribune fights unemployment claims
I hope my friends & my co-workers in UT Packaging Department will have an interest reading this article (or site) and hopefully wake up and open their eyes and be not afraid to stand up for their rights!Being ignorance & fear are two of our greatest weaknesses, and these are all what they have to bust the union out! Again we should educate the Union Tribune (SKUNK) and tell them " We are not colony of ants they are dealing with human beings, I said HUMAN BEINGS!"I don't know how these people live everyday with words full of lies and what values they have in raising their families & their own kids. Yes, they can run but they cannot hide with their own conscience which I know they don't have either! But all of us has their own mirror(conscience) which we cannot deny, if not they do not belong to us!"Homeland Security is Job Security!!!Truely " They are American Junk!Something stinks @ the Union-Tribune and they are really a SHAME, SHAME & SHAME to America!(goosebumps!)They don't want a good worker in UT. All they want are stupid, ignorant & lazy people in the Packaging Department. "WHAT A SHAME!"These are the kind people we have "Why America Is In BIG CRISIS NOW!" Let's pray for them!!!— April 19, 2008 4:36 p.m.
The Rise and Fall of the Copley Press
Again, I hope someday justice will prevail! They can run but they cannot hide!!!! I hope that someday the whole America & the whole world will know what this 100+ years old company is doing to their everyday hardworking people in the Packaging Department. Their unfair Labor Practices...They are a shame to America's Ideals! I hope someday my friends & my co-workers there will not be scared to their dirty tricks just to ger rid out of the union. I hope someday they would be bravely enough to stand up for their rights & tell them "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!" I hope San Diegans would be aware on "How bad they treat their workers! It is not a joke!!!" A lot of monkey business there, we want real business...REAL BUSINESS! copy & paste this URL READ THIS>>> http://thecharmsquad.blogspot.com/— April 1, 2008 11:04 p.m.
The Rise and Fall of the Copley Press
No wonder "SOMETHING STINKS @ THE UNION-TRIBUNE!" Let everybody know that this 100+ years old company doesn't care about the family of their ordinary workers who works hard everyday!One after another the dirty-tricks emerge revealing Union Tribune's ruthless campaign against workers' rights. When UT Pacakging Employees attempt to stand up for themselves and try to form a union, we face threats, propaganda, discrimination, intimidation, harassment and even firings. Which are clearly contrary to the wishes and values of a True-American. It's wrong, and it's got to stop now!!!It is not surprising why Copley business is dying....— February 28, 2008 7:41 p.m.
