Since when do Unions care about reputation?

All the members of CUPE 3906 Unit # 1 are students too. We care about the reputation of McMaster because at some point in the future we'll get degrees with the McMaster logo on them.

Bushra you are so right. TAs could very well be cutting off their noses to spite their faces. Not too bright.

Because they have to be.

We've already seen at least one person in these threads who will be picketing for the money.

CUPE is a fearmongering bully.

If the strike creates enough disruption towards the administration couldn't classes be cancelled?

I'm not sure if you were referring to me...if you were, I had previously said I was going to picket for the money...but this is no longer true.

You may also have meant Michelle, who I'm going to PM in a moment regarding this issue.

If you meant someone else, could you let me know? I have some important info for anyone who is going to picket for purely financial reasons.

DannyV, Taunton all say thanks to Mowicz for this post.

Since CUPE is in strike position this thread is irrelevant. Direct comments/discussion to a more appropriate thread.
