Heard that the dispute was not with O'Reilly or Cortes. Moore received a threatening phone call from the current board and said they would mess with his and is wife's work schedule if he continued to run for treasurer. This would totally mess up his home life so a dispute with one of the other candidates was all made up.
I would not put this past the current board and them trying to hold on to their position because if they run on their record the last 4 years they should lose by a landslide. these are the tactics the current board uses if you run against them or even speak out against them at meeting.
What else is disappointing is that candidate that was threatened has not let the membership know what is going on.
Also is it true that Hartman was talking with guys in the 7th pct and told them they are going to try and take stuff off the table now that retro will have to be sued for. If they don't except that they will try to get the current deal through the way it was without retro (suing for retro) or if that doesn't work they are willing to give up more stuff. Sounds to me the current negotiating committee has been beaten down so badly they have no fight left in them.
Time for a change!
Are you shvtting me? If this candidate, Moore(?), didn't tell the membership, it was because he had a very good reason. He was probably threatened that if this got out to the members, his wife would lose whatever position she has that he was trying to protect. I wouldn't put it passed them. They'll pat you on the back, smile and talk nice until you're out of the room and then you're just another p.o.s. to them.
I was told to Google and look at See Through New York. I heard that the salary increases they got in 2011 while the rest of us were financially stagnant was a real eye opener. I checked and sure enough. Anywhere from the mid teens to $20.000.00+. One guy got a little over $40K in just that one year. I wonder how they were able to do that and why they can't work that kind of magic for the rest of us?
