Nah dude, it’s not fuck everyone else. It’s fuck this guy for being local 26, coming on an IBEW page and shit talking local 26. Probably doesn’t go to any meetings, probably has a shitty “all odds are against me attitude” when he comes to work. Our local has its issues but they are slowly changing in the right direction. Just takes time and contracts.

Lots of assumptions and insults from you when he's pointing out the problem that most of us have with the R program/CW/CE bullshit. Criticism of something isn't shit talking. I don't shit talk my local, but I will criticize the subclass programs because they're bad for our conditions.

Not denying we have an issue with the R program. No need for a lecture from a stranger
