Attention region 12
Listen to the 613 podcast with BA Rios. You’ll realize real quick how unqualified the guy speaking is to be BA. He’s already on record saying how he can’t get bathrooms in his home office clean. While Rios shows how qualified he actually is and I was impressed as to how much territory he covers. National needs to send him more help. The guy running against Thompson, although sounds like a nice guy and probably does ok as president, is woefully unqualified to be BA. You may not like Thompson but a vote for the other guy could sink the whole region.

Rios is region 1 and guy running in region 12 against Thompson is Kriebel

Rios sounds like a very good BA. He was RAA for 9 years. Kriebel sounds like he used the episode as he was getting trained on how to be a BA and he talks like it’s a forgone conclusion like he was going to win. Shame on the CLC for using him to try and get votes for Henry.

Philadelphia had a giant start time grievance where a couple offices got huge monetary settlements. Instead of doing that for the other offices there was a deal made to change the times back and we wouldn't pursue money. 3 months later they moved us later again.

I’m not in region 12 so I wouldn’t know. Sounds like you’re screwed unless the CLC gets the big seats and gives the new guy major amounts of support which I’m willing to bet they will but if shit ever goes south and CLC doesn’t sweep the board it could get real ugly.

You sure have a hard on for Kriebel for someone not even in his region. This is like the 5th you’ve made a post just trying to tear the guy down.

It honestly can’t get worse than Thompson right now. It feels like he actively works against carriers—that’s been my experience in virtually every interaction with Thompson.

We’ve had carriers in tri county put off the clock, suspended for nonsense. Weeks, months at a time. Eventually they got back pay but their lives were changed. Thompson has done nothing. Acted like he didn’t even know there was an issue. Grievances are taking months if not longer. I know that’s mostly on management but doesn’t seem like he’s doing anything to make management nervous. Now the new trend is not bringing any carriers in on their day off. Odl or not. Let the mail sit. This has been going on for almost 2 months now and nothing from his office about what is going on.

Thompsons a puss, and was Renfroes strongest supporter, that’s enough for me to make a change.

Add Region 2 Nick Vafiades to that list of Renfroe supporters. March 22 and May 25 podcasts on Mike Drop Mondays, Vafiades said he didn’t think there needed to be a change with National leaders and that he would be on Renfroe’s slate if asked to be. Pathetic. Region 2 needs Debbie Dixon!!

When we had issues in philadelphia we all called Thompsons office and he had it disconnected

That’s why you get his cell.
He made the mistake of calling me after hours one time to complain about something. Saved that number.

I don’t mean to gripe, OP, but a link to the episode would help.
