It's one thing to demonstrate on campus with students and faculty and quite another when it comes to disrupting medical facilities. |
It's unfortunate that before we even arrived at the meeting place yesterday, the students who called for the meeting had announced another public protest. It felt like they were more interested in getting publicity for themselves than they were in hearing if any real progress could be made or an agreement could be established. |
Right now we think we can get our work done with the workers who have showed up. We will do what it takes to meet the obligations of our contract. |
That fact could have been ascertained with one phone call to our offices. If that accusation is representative of the quality of the research in this report, I think we can reasonably conclude it's not worth the paper it's written on and the union should ask for its money back. |
The market for this kind of labor in southern Florida is what it is. We can't arbitrarily raise the pay if no on else wants to do that. |
The union's actions today shows that it thinks nothing of using distorted facts and fear tactics to achieve its goal of converting our loyal employees into dues-paying members of its struggling organization. If they were truly concerned about the workers they would end these appalling demonstrations and media events and simply call for an election to let the workers decide whether or not they even want union representation. Why are they so afraid of Democracy? |
This is a very fortunate resolution. |
This is what desperation looks like. |
We thought at a time when you're introducing a new technology, it is probably wise to do so in a way that encourages public trust rather than public distrust. For-profit sites face the same hurdle as any other site on the Internet: What is the motive behind the people providing the information? That begs the next question: What do they do with the information I give them? What's their agenda? |
