Morning All!

A day of moving and taking stuff to salvation army today. Then some yard work and redmeat on the grill.

Side note; Hoping everyone has voted on location and place for the fall GTG. It is looking like Lansing (fitzgerald park in Grand Ledge) is the leader and the 23 of October is the likely date.

As stated it is bring your own, some of us do not drink ( medical reasons ) for me. Also it is a good drive and to get stopped and have my CDL taken is not worth it.

So bring what ever you want to drink. It is left up to you for yourself.

We need to know what type food you will bring so we can check it off. Also how many are comming.
This is to be sure we have plenty for everyone. Kids and all.

I'm glad I'm typing this now instead of last night where I was in the corner at my union (whats left of it) meeting.

I'd like to show my displeasure in our state and local legislature (elected officals) on the passing of these unreal bills that affects everyone but themselves.

Snyder just like every other politican has promised the world, but has back stabbed all unionized workers. My union backed him as did POAM (police officers association michigan), and come Jan 1st he just stuck it to all unionized workers in the rear without any lube.

Dooms day is coming the 1st of Jan for all state/local employees that dont have a contract signed by the 15th of this month.

Thanks "1 term Gov", next time you speak can you "blow us away" as if we dont have enough people leaving.

Side note: After my meeting the turbo purchase won't happen

No, no job loss. The police and Fire had to push a milage increase this past March. It was the first increase for public safety in 20 plus years. If that one failed, then most likely. Go figure the city is budgeted for 158 police, but yet we only have 138, and dont plan on hiring anyone. Wonder were that 2.1 million is going, along with the added milage increase. Fortunitaly the majority of the citizens like us since it passed by 83%.

Wonder how they would feel knowing we didnt/won't hire anyone and were down 20 people we are budgeted for.

Much more to say, but I can't type that fast, and soccer practice starts in an hour.

The GTG will be in a Sunday in the afternoon, hopefully you can make it down Jasmin. Would be good to meet you.

Holy crap AL. That totally sucks, hopefully there will be a decent resolution to the issues soon. We need our law enforcement to stay in place. At least it's better than Allen PArk being bankrupt due to a couple Movie cintract that pulled the wool over there eyes.

I didn't have time to stop in the corner today, but I did find my way there this evening...........
