More Union Negotiating at WDW

[Yen_Sid1]

Everyone knows that the STCU (Service Trades Council Union) is still re-negotiating for a new contract. But also this coming week the CMC (Craft Maintenance Council) which includes all Computer Techs, Ride Electricians and Mechanics, Reedy Creek, Resort and Restaurant maintenance, Painters, Carpenters, Horticulture, and many others in the maintenance field. There is about 4,000 workers represented by this contract. They will be voting on a new contract this week also.

I hope everything goes smoothly, because I would hate to see the ride operators and the maintenance workers all go out at the same time.

And I believe that Actors Equity is also in negotiations as well. No wonder the company cancels scheduled bargaining meetings claiming they need more time.
