Taking Action Requires Endurance! Please share with everyone! This live unscripted, unedited, and unrehearsed video is about the always OVERWORKED/UNDER PAID and disrespected Local 1000 represented employees FINALLY taking UNIQUE action based on courage to obtain financial justice along with respect in the workplace! This special action has never been done before so it also requires steadfast endurance and resiliency. Remember we have nearly $100B in surplus in our State Budget! Organizing (political) that has been done in the past such as wearing purple on Wednesdays has NOT built solidarity nor ever has provided us with job/financial security while under a signed legal contract. A new form of NON-POLITICAL unity must be created in order to obtain a much needed substantial pay increase (21%) and much deserved dignity from abusive management in the workplace. In order to create a new culture of excellence for Local 1000 we require and demand the creation of a NEW MINDSET that is not based on political issues and book taught organizational teaching of the “purple” past but is ONLY focused on quality job representation through arbitration as a final remedy and contract negotiations which require us to NOW use creative and challenging actions for a brighter future for us and our families! Anyone that believes that membership voting elected me as the new Local 1000 President in 2021 and wants to ensure that my 10 Point Platform is implemented should be ready to make tremendous sacrifices! So taking courageous action requires endurance which starts with you! As the first step please email me at richard.brown7437@yahoo.com and state that the following: “A 21% salary increase along with GEO pay and COLA for the next contract starting on July 1, 2023 is required OR we will STRIKE! The 5.11 Dignity Clause will no longer be decided at Step 3 with CalHR as the final decision maker-it goes to arbitration OR we will STRIKE! Please authorize me to email you at either your work or personal email.” Thank you, Richard the Real 7437 408-207-2339 Richard.brown7437@yahoo.com
