THE BURNING EMBER 9

YOUR LOCAL PRESIDENT COMES THROUGH, NOT

In case you missed it, I called it right, the bullfrog failed to show up at the membership meeting on Sunday the 20th. He has now missed more the 50% of the meetings this year that he is required to attend. He has again failed to perform the duties that he is required to perform by the local constitution. The vast majority of the members present at the meeting work full time at the Post Office and have families. They gave up their sunny Sunday July afternoon to attend. Bullfrog did not even have the respect for those members in attendance to show up. He even failed to notify anyone that he was not going to attend. If he pulled that stunt at the USPS he would have been charged AWOL and probably would be facing discipline. He is paid a very generous salary to perform certain duties. Those members who did attend were waiting for him to show. Even his few supporters seemed disappointed. I wonder how much longer they can continue to support him after he has failed so many times. Again the local vice-president stepped up and performed the duties of the President. I do not know how much longer the membership can allow this to go on. Charges were filed in the past for his failure to perform his duties. However nothing came of that due to the interference of National Officers. I believe that the membership needs to call this so called president on his failures. I do not know if the local can survive this for another 5 months. He failed to show up to the meetings over the last week. He has done nothing for the Picnic or the Golf tournament. He is nothing more then an overpaid steward. He is not worth the money we pay him.

You need to give the bullfrog a call or drop him and e-mail and tell him you want him to either start fulfilling his responsibilities or step aside and let someone else do the job.
