Thanks rc. I guess I'll have to get it Mon.

Buzz, I worked Mon. & Tues. Do you know if the checks are direct deposit?

In todays Post it says owner of JaFaz let go of 100 matrons that stood with us on the strike. He said due to lack of work, they say he's full of shit.
If I knew how to put the link from the paper I would.

If they don't call you, you can call in at 6:55 PM @ 855-269-4484

I got a feeling that when we go back OPT will be after us. Hope I'm wrong!

Just heard that NY1 said they voted in our favor. The strike is LEGAL!

Buzz, let us know if we get the permit for the SI Zoo tomorrow. Thanks!

Count me in!

Some went through correctly and some didn't. I guess it depended on who did the claim at UI. The woman I spoke to today from UI said; "we didn't have to do any of this. UI has a record of all companies that go on strike and when they did". 

Buzz has a great link about union busting. Everyone should watch it. Bloomys grand plan isn't to save money, it's to break unions and make two classes of people, them(rich) and us(poor). No more middle.

The woman I spoke to from UI said this is going to happen to a lot of us but it can be straightened out. Get in touch with UI and let them know.

Just checked my bank account & the $405 is in there. Waiting for them to send me the overpayment form so I can send the $ back. Everyone should check their accounts today to see if you got paid.

If you get a check, call UI and tell them. They will send you a form of "over payment". Then send them back the money. That's what they told me today.

I finally got though today to UI. Anyone who put in a claim last sunday and was not given the choice of STRIKE will be sent a check for that week. You have to call them and straighten it out. It's an over payment and they are going to want the money back. She said for future claims; "when it asks if you are not willing to go back to work, hit YES" that will stop the claim from going through and at the same time log it in as one of the strike weeks.
This must be new to them or something. She said they are swamped with calls concerning this. Good luck getting through.
When I get my check I have to mail it back to them. Same with you guys.

NY1 says school buses are rolling this morning. They said new drivers & matrons finished their training today. They mentioned Island Charter as one of the companies.
