aboutunions, if they post here then we'll know kinda' who they are, not?

I hope 789 members join in the forum wherever they can contribute. They have alot to share with us. It would appear their democracy is working and I'd like to know how they got there.

I've understood that point from the outset, and in-fact if you follow the exchange between Siggy and I on Retail Worker, you'll see our clear difference of opinion. I don't hate the UFCW. I happen to believe there are 100s of 1000s of retail workers who are better off than most non-union retail because of the UFCW.We've had salts in several of the non-union big box operators. The wage and benefit differences are staggering. That says nothing about contract language and protections that come with a collective bargaining agreement.I've tried to be as open as i can with what we do. Our web sites have printed contracts, the recent settlements and now we have posted our by-laws. Being Union is'nt a secret or something to be ashamed of. In my opinion, we should be shouting it from the rooftops.Where there are problems or abuses we should be trying to change them.

Your suggestion for 789 members to post here is interesting, but I too have a different agenda. When we convert to an interactive forum on our YOUAREWORTHMORE site, I expect we'll get our share of open honest discussion and debate. Ultimately, our goal will be to grow the Union and the movement by using the net like you guys are doing on MFD. I also recognize that by opening that type of communication, we will have posters from all over the country, perhaps even Canada. My guess is some of you will try to bring members to your site. So be it. If I have to be afraid of what you guys say or think, I must not be very secure on what I do as a leader.

Here lies the rub. I don't want to destroy anything, I want to build from what we have. I fully accept there are some things that need to change, and actually thats one of the reasons I keep coming back. In my opinion, it is shameful there is'nt a more open process for members to run for Union office. That should be the cornerstone of a free democratic labor movement. No Union officer owns the job for more than the three years they are elected by the membership. If they get re-elected every year for thirty years, because they are doing their job and the members love them, thats not a bad thing, thats a good thing( to steal a line from DDP).

As far as walking to the edge as a reformer, there's a huge difference when you get to just say things as opposed to making decisions that members rely on. Let me be clear, every choice should be the members, but they do look to the leadership for direction. I can show you 1000s of workers who are out of the grocery business because we challenged owners who wanted to gut the contract. They were willing to die in the streets rather than take consessions. That story has been replayed time and time again. It's never an easy decision. There's always tough choices.

Let me close by saying I am UFCW. I am proud of so many of the things we've done for workers. That's not to say there are'nt problems, but when you compare wages and benefits to non-union, especially in retail, being a UFCW member has a value that for the price of dues is money well spent. Thanks for the opportunity to use this forum to spread the word. Someday soon, we'll try and return the favor.

Bill you are right in so many things but no-one seems willing to step up over here.

When I read your above post my knee jerk was That's not to say there are'nt problems, but when you compare wages and benefits we had prior to '97 to the wages we have now, especially in B.C. retail, being a UFCW member has a de-value.

How does anyone regain the faith that is fundamental in a union, when not one leader will address the truth? Not one leader will accept the responsibility of what all sources confirmed was a bad deal. Not one leader is willing to restore the members faith in exchange for their position.

I don't mean to divert the discussion away from siggy's question, but I did have one other coment I wanted to make.

You said:

I came across this Freeman and Rogers article recently and I thought it had some very good points about the intersection of the internet with traditional forms of union representation.

Open Source Unionism: Beyond Exclusive Collective Bargaining

I think it would be an interesting use of the YOU ARE WORTH MORE site to explore how you can move from internet discussion to some kind of coordinated grassroots worker action, particularly in a field like retail where you might have a fair number of supporters spread out through a non-union chain like Target or Kmart, but you don't necessarily have the strength to fight and win a bunch of representation elections. There may still be actions the workers could take to improve their conditions, and through the internet, Local 789 could facilitate those actions.

Anyway, I just wanted to drop that footnote in case you had not seen the article.

Damm had a power blackout and lost my post.

Brother Bill, in reference to the agenda of those maintaing this site. Your fellow ceo's are trying to ruin the lives forever of innocent people who just want a fair union. I have never discussed their issues personally, but if they are mad they have every right to be. What UFCW is doing is wrong, wrong, wrong. I think that this web site is rather mild in comparison to how I might
do or say things. I have always believed that unions need reforming, now I believe that we need new unions, with new ideas and a new format,a new charter. Why do we need to pay all the big wages to union executives and the life style they have regarless of what union they are? Bill how do you personally justify your wage and that of your executive? Are you telling me that you would not be a President of UFCW if you were not making the big bucks. To me Bill, I would respect union leaders who rolled back their wages themselves. I've never understood the concept of paying union ceo's at any level wages that seperate them from the members they serve. For me when I hear someone jusify their wage as the members OK'd it, I find that rather status quo.

quote:


Your suggestion for 789 members to post here is interesting, but I too have a different agenda


My idea Bill is only for you to freely let members have the freedom of speech without union scrutiny. I wish no union any harm, nor by suggesting your members post here am I encourageing any disrespect or dissent for your local. My point only is if you are truly for reform, I feel that you could be a conerstone of reform by promoting your members to interact with this site or any other public site. Do you feel that a site like this one would dwindle your solidarity base?

I think that the free flowing of ideas of your members would strenghten your solidarity with members. Would they not have more respect for you as a leader if you were to say to them, "Here is a web site that has many different union viewpoints, feel free to contribute?"

quote:


I can show you 1000s of workers who are out of the grocery business because we challenged owners who wanted to gut the contract


This is a very interesting point for me. As a President where do you think the line must be drawn between losing jobs at any cost and accepting concession contracts? In Canada, unions are accepting concession contracts left and right, increasing their wages and giving less representation in my political opinion. No member wants to lose their job, but if their wages are cut, benefits reduced, what has any union really accomplised, they have not even maintained the staus quo for members, just the union status quo.

quote:


Here lies the rub. I don't want to destroy anything, I want to build from what we have


Here is where we differ greatly. I do not believe that we can build from what we have. In general the unions are insensitive to members and are off fighting social issues here and abroad. I have no problem with this if they were adequately looking after members rights and liberties here, but they are not and this web site is evidence of it.
I believe, just like we want to renovate our house we must first destroy something to bring in the new. So too must we find a way to destroy the way unions are able to represent members interest before we can have something new that is more representative of memebers in general. We may not have to get rid of the orgniztion of UFCW, but we will have to renovate from the bottom up. Unions are losing their power base and respect. Most everyone is resistant to change and unions and the ceo's who run them are no different. Perhaps members (regardless of union affiliation) across this great land need to lobby government on our own for changes that benefit members and not the union identity. What do you think Bill?

quote:


Let me close by saying I am UFCW.


To me I belong to Cupe. I am a unionist, but a proud unionist first before any affiliation. To me there is a distintion that needs to be made. If you are a unionist too, would it really matter which union name you carried? Your values are in your mind and heart, not in some name. Would you not do the same thing, think the same way regardless of which union you belonged to?
What would you ever do if International told you to stop being a reformer? I guess my main contention is that if you are a devout UFCWer, why not push the edge and protest to International publicly on their drastic need for reform. At the very least if they punish you, you could always find another union as a medium to represent members at large.

Look forward to your reply.

G-t: Thanks for the article, it was very interesting. I've long argued that if we keep trying to organize the same way, we will continue to get the same results. It's amazing to think that some can't understand that simple fact. The entire premise on the YOUAREWORTHMORE site was to engage workers in a venue they felt no fear or intimidation. By moving to a web based organizing campaign, we open up the potential to reach workers at a whole different level. That's why the article was so good, it got us out of the rut of the same old thinking. There are so many non-union retail workers out there, the possibilities to do or be something for them is almost limitless.Does it have to be a tradiditional Union? Only time will tell, the key is to be in a position to reach large numbers of them. I have already asked our executive board to think about another radio advertising campaign to launch the new and improved YOUAREWORTHMORE site. We would invite workers to come, using the same software as MFD,and be whatever they need us to be. It could be as a resource, a sounding board or to organize. I'm excited by the potential, recognizing it will go on long after I'm gone. We simply can't go on with business as usual. The article could'nt have been more on point, we are on the way to irrevelance if we don't change.

About Unions: Let me quickly try and answer some of your questions:

1). How do you personally justify your wage? Strange question given you know what i make. I have members working in grocery stores who make near or above what i do. In-fact, there are some pharmacists in our Union who earn twice what i earn. That's not a bad thing, that's a good thing. I've always insisted our salaries were close to what the highest paid members make.

2). That of your executive? As this site has reported, there are several large salaries in the UFCW. I have been outspoken over the years, but my opinion is'nt what they use to set salaries. I just choose not to waste a lot of energy over something i can't change.

3). Are you telling me you would'nt be pres. if you were'nt making that big money? It's never been about the money. I think i'm fairly paid for what i do, though my wife thinks i work too many hours. To me its a way of life, and hours mean nothing.

4).Where do you think the line should be drawn? (on concessions). That's impossible for me to answer, because ultimately its up to the membership. That's why it's critical to get members back involved in the process.

5). Your last point about being a trade Unionist ahead of a UFCW guy is again a challenge. I have stood toe to toe with almost every Union in the Twin Cities. WE have supported everyone that's asked. Having said that i am proud to be UFCW. However i am a collectivist at heart. There's days i think the old wobblies had the right idea. One giant Union. To get there today would be way too painful for workers. I think we can rebuild from with-in, simply by moving to a bottom-up structure. It won't be easy, but nothing ever is.

Hi Bill:
This bottom-up structure is somewhat a mystery to me. I don't mean to be thick but having asked on several occasions just how this would work with no reply, I wonder if you would enlighten me?

As I understand it, a bottom-up union organization is one that consciously, consistently puts power in the hands of the membership, and depends on the continuous, active participation of the members to set its goals and achieve its objectives. The union rep doesn't tell the members what to do, the members tell the union rep what to do. A bottom-up union may not necessarily have a different constitutional structure than a top-down union, although sometimes structure can make a big difference. The main distinction, though, is always in the organization's culture.

For example, in a top-down union there wouldn't be a big emphasis on getting members to show up at meetings. Rather, the union exec aspires to this situation, so that they can be sure that their supporters dominate and they can ram through whatever agenda they see fit. If anyone complains, they simply blame them for not showing up, regardless of whether the exec showed any consideration in the scheduling, promotion, location, accessibility, or accomodation of people's special needs in the initial planning of the meeting.

In a bottom-up union, on the other hand, everybody's participation is very important to the union. If not a lot of people are showing up to meetings, or there is one group that is consistently underrepresented, the leadership takes steps to seek out these people, find out why they are not showing up, and try to develop ways to accomodate these people's needs or otherwise solicit their opinions.

* * * * *

I also wanted to address About Union's argument. AU, I share a lot of your feelings but I'm also a little cautious right now about pushing the distinction between those who want to reform the UFCW and those who want to replace it. I'm not saying this isn't an important question to consider, I'm just saying its not the only one. Most of us here share at least some of the same objectives - better, stronger, more democratic unions. <whiteway> over in PEI is trying to do that by starting his own union. Demon and Wannabe are trying to do that by switching from the UFCW to the CAW. The REAP people are trying to do that by establishing a formal opposition caucus in the UFCW. And Bill and his staff are trying to do that by affecting local level change in a union local where they are actually in control.

I think ultimately some approaches may prove to work better than others. But with so many different approaches going on, I don't think we necessarily have to decide which is best, yet. I think one thing we should do more of is to take time to celebrate that something is acutally happening, use this forum to share what parts of it are working and what are not, and, where possible, lend support to what each other is trying to do, too.

Open Source Unionism: Beyond Exclusive Collective Bargaining


Damn that article was long!

Maybe it left out one thing: open source unionism has the potential to bridge the divide between managers and hourly employees.

managers are hourly employees who get screwed out of overtime. talk about surplus value!

i like this about the NLRA:

"The first is that, in fact, the law provides very little protection of workers from aggressive anti-union employers. The provisions of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) are neither punitive nor self-enforcing."

the NLRA is anti-union law... Use it when it's in your favor, ignore it when it isn't.

open source unionism. I posted this to the labourstart webmaster forum over a year ago:

The AFL-CIO should hire a small group of programmers around which they would build an open source development project that would produce a version of linux that included a tool set for unions. They should announce that they support the idea of open source software and offer to use the Labor Movement's lobbying power to defend open source licensing against legislative assault by Microsoft and other big software vendors. By doing that, the labor movement would earn the respect the free services of programmers around the world.

So there you would have a browser, a platform, a content management system, an administrative toolset. yada yada yada

...It should all be modular. Develop a linux OS, but also develop cross-platform apps that run on linux and windows. For web apps, this can be done with scripting languages like perl & php, databases like mysql. Larger apps for large organizations would require something more robust, like python (which integrates easily with c++ and java, and works on a large scale). Zope, for example, is written in Python, is cross-platform, and is able to read data from legacy databases like Oracle & Sybase, as well as it's own object database. Also think in terms of creating simple out of the box apps (a phpnuke clone, for example) that can be implemented by a locals individually. Platform limited software like Cold Fusion and ASP should not be part of the development process.

...Hire a group of developers. Write a press release. Do some marketing. Watch the volunteers pour in. I don't know what is the protocol for getting something like this done by say, the AFL-CIO, but it would be a visionary move.

Siggy; To paraphrase; How does anyone regain the faith when no-one leader will address the truth? One of my biggest challenges to having reasonable discussions has been the difference in what has gone on in each of our locals. I try not to be too judgemental, because i'm never sure how or why you got to where you are. I know from a personal standpoint, it's never easy to admit i screwed up. Having said that, i have, and when i can admit it, members have been willing to be reasonable and accept it as a mistake. I know of no member who expects me to have the infalability of the Pope. They do expect me to fight for them, and that's been a pretty easy rule to follow. All I can suggest is to keep the dialogue going. I never think we should have to compromise our principles, but i believe we can find ways to work together. Unfortunately , your situation in BC has broken down to a point where that may not be possible. Although, i'm a hopeless optimist and like to believe that anything is with-in reach. I would encourage local union leadership to work to that end, but again that's up to them.

What tools would unions need that aren't already built into linux?

Python? Robust?

Perls' "there's more than one way to do it" beats Pythons' stricter ruleset hands down!

I think it would be more advantageous for big-labour to embrace and support OSS without actually getting involved in the production aspect of it. Labours' thumbs are in enough pies as it is. Software is waaaay out of their league. OSS (web) apps are easily customizable as-is anyways.

OSS has traditionally (and typically) been *enthusiast* driven. I've got no problem with a local writing their own CMS then open-sourcing it for other folks to utilize. However I do think that packaging it (and whatever other tools you think are specific to unions) all up into a linux distro is a little... well, silly.

Fisher: Globalize-this did a great job of explaining bottom-up, but let me add a few thoughts. I've been fortunate in having worked for local 789 for 25 years. Before that, i was a produce mgr and an active member of the union. I began in the mid 60s when we were active and involved in the process. Members turned out by the thousands to vote on their contracts. In- fact, the president who hired me came out of a Department store to run against a person of questionable character who was given the job by the International(approx.1960). They would'nt let an outsider run our Union. It was that kind of involvement that made our Union strong.

Once we reached the 80s, a new dynamic had taken over the labor movement and our Union. The union leaders and the paid staff became the Union.If there was a problem, just call the Union and we'd fix it. Rather than members being the solution, we were it. That was okay untill the employer started taking us on. Things got ugly with two tiered contracts, concessionary bargaining and trading language for minimal improvements in wages and benefits. Members wondered why we weren'nt taking care of things, and we wondered why members did'nt give a shit about their Union. It became the blame game and we were all losers.The easiest thing to do was what Unions always do.... the same old thing. It was a recipe for disaster.In recent years there has been a small turn around in membership activism.We still have a long way to go.

So here's where this gets good. Members should hold their elected officals accountable. To do that, they have to know whats's going on. That means it 's the leaderships responsibility to make them an active and willing part of the process. It means we have to empower them to be the solution by being the power behind the Union. It can't be the elected officials, it has to start at the membership level. That means we give them skills, knowledge and information to succeed. I know how terrifying that is, because it means someone might come along and take my job. I can't think of a better stimulus to insure i do a good job for the membership. We can start by changing how we negotiate and ratify contracts. Nothing we do should be a secret. If we are embarassed by what we bring to the members, then it probably is'nt good enough. The members are the sole reason for our existence, and we ought to operate from that perspective. Everytime in this business i've had a problem i could'nt solve, the members could. And then , there's the final kicker. Members who think they can do a better job than me should have a fair chance to run for that position. That's what and when true Union democracy will take place.

Bottom-up unionism is just this simple, it's about the membership, not about the leadership. We are not the power behind the Union, the members are. When we get to that point, workers will be fighting to get into Unions.

This is exactly how I feel. To me the name of a union is just that and means nothing more. In fact you don't have to pay dues to be a unionist.

You should have seen the looks on the faces of the two owners of the non union store I work at when I said "I consider myself to be a unionist" during our mini negotiations for my wage etc. I swear they stopped breathing for a second until I clarified my current position for them. Still I am what I am and make no effort to hide it. I work harder than my co workers and do better work. I bring more to the table and give myself the chance to get a better wage. In fact I've done as good for myself as the UFCW in it's hay day [if in fact it had one, a benefit of the doubt just for Bill]

I don't try to hide from who and what I am, I wear it like a badge of honour. However, that said there is no place in my heart for weak, corrupt, self serving dishonest back stabbing lieing cheating despotic criminals who pass themselves off as unionist simply because their friends and relatives pulled enough strings to get them into powerful positions in the union. [whichever union that may be] That simply will not stand and I want no part of it.

I was on the phone today with the NRLB trying to find out if the company was going to comply with a decision. The agent couldn't tell me because the compliance officer has the case now. The process is what is killing us and draining any energy that workers manage to build in the fights.
The owners are always predictable in how they deal with workers organizing and it seems to me that when we buy into the system (NRLB, business unionism, etc.) is when we get screwed.
I am proud to be a Local 789 member and realize that the system that we compete in is flawed and that it is only through worker to worker solidarity that we have a chance.

I noticed that you did not state UFCW. Is there a distinction between associating with a name or associating with a local?

As a UFCW member, how does it affect you when everytime a union member gets caught out of line, and especially when UFCW is the offender?
