Whew!

Hey people! Thought I'd abandoned this place, didn't you? Nope, I'm still here buried under a pile of everything. What's been going on?
With me? We are currently in the middle of contract negotiations and that along with work, baby, family, and school has me running ragged. I've been neglecting my natural hair and feeding my family quick fire meals. Uh-uh! I need to get back to me and should be able to soon.
About that contract? I tell you, it's hard enough for Unions to survive with hostile companies and the state of the current environment but tell me why members of the Union try to kill it?what do you guys think? Is it the 3 guaranteed pay raises per year (regardless of job performance) that we negotiated for them? Or maybe they don't like the $15 office visit, $35 hospital and emergency NO DEDUCTIBLE insurance that we fought the company to get? I pay $45 per paycheck to cover my entire family btw....... Anyway, we're David fighting Goliath for better pay, better benefits, and better working conditions and yet some of our members refuse to show any kind of passion or appreciation. Hopefully, when this contract is negotiated and ratified, those members will be able to see and appreciate our purpose?

In this economy, we should be thankful to be employed. Most of you Follow me on Twitter vice versa so I know that you guys are grateful for what you've been blessed with. But others? Uuuugh. In the state I live in, 1 out of 10 are unemployed and yet I work with adults that are proud to say each and every day that they hate their job. Oooookay. I just needed to vent...what a bad way for me to return to blogging isn't it? LOL

Nope not a bad way to come back. I made an attempt to return myself. And honestly had trouble blogging so I just wrote what was up at the moment. So how's that baby? Too cute! I don't know if I've neglected my natural hair or I don't know what the hell to do with it. Lately it's been so dry. I think it's the weather here. I've never had dry hair * ugh* well hop back on the bandwagon sweetie.

Sincerely,
Go

Hey there! I'm glad your back you have been missed. I'm truly thankful to be among the working, it's an honor....really. Be blessed.

Back with a vengeance I'd say. I would give both my left arm and leg to be EMPLOYED right now. Folks should be counting their blessings instead of complaining...

Glad you're back and it was a "nice vent" because it's true. I guess some people just don't like change...even when it change for the better.
This economy is getting tough, people better hold on to what they have.

my husband constantly reminds me that if it wasn't for his union it wouldn't have had a ZERO bill when our daughter was born.
