  1. INCREDIBLE CNA/NNOC victory in Houston.

    vlynnieg replied to Chico David's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    The ratio in my specific care area is better than the one they were offering, as were some other areas in my hospital. There were only perhaps two care areas that the ratio varied from theirs by one...

  2. INCREDIBLE CNA/NNOC victory in Houston.

    Not all nurses believe as you do, and we are not 'blind' with our 'heads in the sand' if we do not agree with you. The reference to slavery was a nice touch: let's evoke strong emotional responses to...

    Chico David: I am not in the habit of making false statements. I am stating what I saw with my own eyes and what I have heard from my peers with my own ears. The anti-union postings were there from...

    thank you, syndromal65, I truly hate the way these outsiders have come in and caused such divisiveness amonst my collegues. All in the name of 'bringing us together' (under their thumb!) My gut says...

    vlynnieg replied to Chico David's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    "Chosen few"?!? No, as nurses, we are obligated to speak up for our patients. Yet, I have seen how many, instead of speaking up for themselves, sit back passive-aggressively stewing and do not speak...

    vlynnieg replied to Chico David's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Protections? A nurse giving proper care needs no 'protections'. I have always gotten excellent benefits and pay and the door to my director and my CNO, etc, have always been open to me. I'm sorry, but...

  8. INCREDIBLE CNA/NNOC victory in Houston.

    vlynnieg replied to Chico David's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Get your facts straight--we are Rio Grande Regional Hospital, McAllen, TX, and many are already regretting their pro-union votes because they didn't do their homework first. The hospital was placed...

    vlynnieg replied to Chico David's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    It's my understanding that the hospital in Houston has had a union for TWO YEARS and still no contract. So, what exactly is the union doing for them?!? My hospital just recently faced their onslaught...
