So Much in the Last Month

I apologize for not writing more.  Jeebus, so much has happened in the last month, everything from a new girlfriend to opening my own escort agency to changes in the labor organizing to my diet.  SO MUCH!  I will be catching you up on all of it in the next week.

Union/ Whore Tour

After the release of the website, last month's organizing meeting was the largest we have had, with 20 people attending, including some employees who had been with the company more than 10 years!  So I am feeling positive about the whole organizing process.  We have another meeting in two weeks.  At this point, it looks like it will be even bigger.

James said I am doing such an excellent job that I should ask for a full time paid position from the international headquarters of the union & travel around the country, teaching others how to successfully organize with the use of the internet.  Of course after hearing that, my whore business sense kicked in & I thought I could couple the union travel with a whore tour.  Brilliant...

Organizing Website Goes Live

I finally released the website for my labor organizing campaign & absolutely nothing negative has happened.  In fact, it has been very empowering, with the use of facebook & twitter.  I am able to have anonymous conversations with everyone who has questions about the organizing, which numbers around a dozen daily.

I cannot imagine how difficult it would be to organize without the internet.  Talking to people over the course of several years must have been incredibly cumbersome.  Now, I can reach out to whomever I choose almost immediately.  Thank you, internet god!

Organizing Nausea

I am in the process of working on the final stages of the website for organizing the manual labor company I work for part-time.  Even as I type this now, I am nauseated.  It seems that I am having difficulty completing my project, without assistance from James.

I think all of this stems form the discussion I had with Thomas about the organizing.  Thomas is in the same manual labor industry as I am, but he is not part of the union or the company I want to organize.  Being a very smart man, he gave his opinion of what will happen if I choose to continue.  He said two important things.

First, he said that a group of people never went to the owners of the company to voice their grievances, so trying to organize them would be a professional bitch slap.  Then, he said that the company would go under in a few years, if they had to pay the additional money for benefits that would be bargained for if organized.

When I discussed those points with James & Joanne, James said the bargaining would take into account how much in overhead the company could afford.  Both of them said that individually people had gone to the owners to tell them their thoughts.  In addition, they may have thought they would lost hours if they tried that now, using the word "organizing" in the conversation.

So with the opinions of others in my ear, I am taking a deep breath & continuing.

Union Meeting a Bust

James & I went to the labor organizing meeting few evenings ago.  It was a complete bust, except for the vice-president of the union showing up too.  That was the first time no one has come to the meeting.  It's hard for manual labors to take a evening off, especially in the middle of our busiest season.

Although disappointed, I still have lots of faith about the organizing.  The industry in our city is going to be shaken up quite a bit, once the website, specifically create for this organizing project, is released in 2 months.

I am very proud of my efforts :)

More Organizing Connections

I connected with five more people, while being a wrench wench, who are interested in organizing the manual labor company I work for part-time, when I am not whoring.  I forwarded their email addresses to the Local's vice-president who will invite them to the next organizing meeting next month.

Although the big push will take place, at the beginning of next year, through our website, Facebook & twitter account, much of the introduction to the concept is in person.  I am in the perfect position to do just that, considering I am charismatic, intelligent, & "one of them".

As things progress, I become more excited & positive. :)

Labor Organizing Whore

I am in the process of organizing the company I do manual labor for part-time, into part of the local union.  I am in the perfect position to do it, because unlike others who are afraid to loose their job, if their activies are discovered, I have no fear, because as a whore, I have a job that pays substantially more, along with giving me benefits.

My dirty secret is that I am organizing out of revenge.  The office of the company I am attempting to organize had a position that I wanted for years & I told the owners that several times.  However, when the position was vacated, the rumor is they gave it to the daughter of the owner's neighbor.  That could just be a rumor, of course.  However, in the end, they never said anything to me.  They didn't even announce the position opening to anyone else I know of.  As frequently as they mass email everyone in the office, that would have been very easy to do.

Yes, I know it is arrogant of me to believe they would even consider me for the position.  Perhaps they believed that I was not a good match.  In the end, it doesn't matter.  They did not give me or anyone else the opportunity to apply.

Beyond that, the company is the lowest paying in the industy, although it is the busiest & quiet possibly the most profitable & they do not offer benefits to anyone in the field.  Recently, when I asked one of the new owners if the field people would be getting a raise anytime soon, he said "We will reevalaute things in about two years."  Two years?!

I really love this company.  I love the people.  I love the places we work.  I love the equipment.  I love my work & take pride in it (That's pretty obvious, consider I could be sucking cock, as a whore making $800 a day, rather than $19.50 an hour doing manual labor).  This company & the other people who are not as lucky as I am deserve my time & energy to organize.

"I am very proud of you. I am also a little scared of you."

I am in the process of organizing the company I work part-time into part of our local union.  I am in the perfect position to do it successfully & without fear, because I make such great money as a whore.  I don't have to worry about being caught & loosing my job.

As the president of the union said, "You are going to single handedly organize this company".  He is indeed right, considering once a month, when we have our organizational meeting I bring at least one new person & no one else does.  I also created the member's only website that is dedicated to the project & will be released in late January.

James said to me, "I am very proud of you.  I am also a little scared of you."  He knows better than most that when I set my mind to something, I will get what I want.

I wonder how the other employees or owner of the company would feel about a whore organizing the company.
