Well.... Brother no offense taken..... I'd love to see another member blog....
You see, the self-serving and ego motivated focus on politics by President Holway and other midget Machiavellis in SEIU-ACORN is one of the fundamental flaws of NAGE 5000....
These POS dopes are squandering our hard earned dues and are merely massaging their own bloated egos while convincing no one that their pathetic opinions amount to more than a piss-hole-in-the snow.
Meanwhile members suffer from a lack of effective representation at the bargaining table. SEIU recently squadered $3 million in members dues money (and who knows how much of OUR NAGE dues money went in) in an unsuccessful attempt to influence the senatorial primary in Arkansas! You've got to be kidding right?
Contrast the efforts of a real union: the Boston Fire Fighters.... they are getting 19% RETRO pay raises and they are due back at the bargaining table again, now.....
If they had been rep'd by SEIU/NAGE they'd have gotten ZERO % retro.... and a paltry less-than-inflation increase on a go forward basis, postponing another shot at the bargaining table for 3 more years...... the Boston fire fighters aren't squandering dues on bull-shit social justice efforts like getting amnesty for illegal aliens..... they are spending their dues on getting a decent contract and protecting their members interests.
NAGE fails to deliver on fair contracts time after time, they fail in their duty of fair representation.....
....look at their latest bullshit smoke screen..... trying to make it look like they are doing something for the members
..... their absolute nonsense campaign regarding the alleged "toxic environment" at the DOR Salem office..... this is pure unadulterated bullshit.....
....if things were half as bad as they would have you believe then local authorities would have padlocked the doors long ago.....
....folks this is just meant to distract the all the useful (dues paying) idiots from the dirty deals suffered at the hands of NAGE.... pay cuts, health insurance cuts, and now lay-offs.... don't fall for this crap!.....
Anyway brother good luck with your blog...... anyone's efforts to shed some light on NAGE operations is welcome..... all we get from NAGE is to be kept in the dark and fed nothing but BS.

I also tried to find an alternative union because I wanted to reach out
to them. I had problems at work and I learned NAGE could care less.
They did nothing and I paid a high price for that.
In
the process of defending myself I also learned there’s a whole world of
prohibitive labor practices by employee organizations. There’s no
question NAGE violates their duty to provide fair representation by
their organizational structure alone as do individual representatives.
They have a duty to provide representation and do it in good faith. We all know they don't.
I
was relieved when I found this site and intended to openly contribute
but I can't due to the political views that are expressed. Someone’s
political views are not an issue for me but associating myself with
this site is the same as supporting the political stance and I’m just
not comfortable with that. – I sincerely do not mean that as an insult
or even a political disagreement. I just can’t mix politics with my/our
problems with NAGE.
NAGE members need help and I want to share
my experience, the union's legal requirements, what our rights are and
hear other stories - AKA: get organized.
Maybe I'll create a site myself - again - no offense. If anyone is interested let me know – NAGEmembersforum@gmail.com
By the way if you'd like to read about more about NAGE tactics in screwing members check out this post http://nagemembers-units1-3-6.blogspot.com/2010/05/massive-layoffs-pending-important-post.htmlI think you are naive (with your desire to refrain from mixing political opinion and union business) ... no offense intended....
