Comments on: SEIU Files Injunction Today http://www.rumromanismrebellion.net/2009/02/19/seiu-files-injunction-today/ "We beg no longer; we entreat no more; we petition no more. We defy them!" - William Jennings Bryan Mon, 06 Sep 2010 02:57:55 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Erish http://www.rumromanismrebellion.net/2009/02/19/seiu-files-injunction-today/comment-page-1/#comment-17457 Erish Sun, 01 Mar 2009 16:14:49 +0000 http://www.rumromanismrebellion.net/?p=2986#comment-17457 Unfortunately, SEIU did not read the statutes and personnel rules relating to state workers subject to a RIF. They do have an administrative remedy, and all records necessary to achieve that remedy are available to the employee. The two employees who were actually let go had 5 days under DOA to assert their rights and did not. Since SEIU did not advise them of their rights or file the necessary request for review, and assert all other rights afforded to them - those two employees have lost forever their right to a review, alternative placement or reinstatement. That is the sad thing. The case will be dismissed and these two employees are out in the cold, again.

You need to ask why AZ is BK?!?!? The suit was not about money but rather to fight for the rights that should in this day and age not even be questioned, where are we the USSR 1980? Truth, Transparency and fair notice. Hey I got a question, why is it in the eleventh hour the State is out of money? Maybe the crap was shoved under the rug while Nappy got her feet in the White House huh? Why have the Furloughs and layoffs managed to avoid Legislator Staff? This should not have been something of a surprise after watching all the large companies here go under. Who and what kind of forsight committee didn't see this coming? Where are all the funds? I know they wouldn't be working for me... I know we are not cared about by the general public but without the basic functioning of these many agencies there will be no one to take care of those effected by this economic condition and there will no one to collect the funds that are disparately needed. Stop and think before it's too late! Many people stand to lose thier meger wages! You need to ask why AZ is BK?!?!?

Most of your colleagues seem hellbent on seeing those rights observed (like any good citizen) and I can't understand for the life of me how that makes them "lawsuit loving." Our system works because people aren't willing to roll over and take it when their rights are being trampled. Fighting this kind of corruption is something to be lauded, not discouraged. You will someday realize that Brewer and the rest of the gang really don't care that much about you. They know they can treat you however they want and you will still vote for them as long as they keep vomiting out the same republican stump lines (hell, they canned you and you are DEFENDING them). Republicans would just as soon watch you starve. The sooner you realize this, the better off you'll be. Thomas,

Because we all know how much corporate America cares for the little guy, right?
