No Voting Required This Year for SHARE Rep and Executive Board Members

We received more than 50 nominations for SHARE Rep and Executive Board, and there are enough positions for all the nominees. A vote is only held when here are more people running than there are positions to run for.

Congratulations to the new and returning SHARE representatives, who are now considered elected! A list of all SHARE Reps and Executive Board members will be posted soon, right here on this blog.

Questions? Please call the SHARE office at 508-929-4020.

Opthalmic Techs Vote to Join SHARE!

By a landslide vote of 7 to 0, the Opthalmic Technicians of the Eye Center voted to join SHARE last week. Before this, they had been classified as non-union.

Let's wish them a warm welcome to the SHARE union!

SHARE Leader Nominations Open

Now's the time to think about nominating someone to be a SHARE leader. Are you interested in becoming more active in the SHARE union? Or is there a co-worker who you think would make a good SHARE Rep? Nominations are open now for SHARE Rep positions and for some of the SHARE Executive Board positions. You can nominate yourself or a co-worker.

Nominations are due in the SHARE office by Thursday, May 19th at 5pm. If there are too many candidates running for any position, we will have an election on June 16.

SHARE Phones Are Back

Thank you for your patience. The electrician was in today, and the phones are back online . . .

SHARE Phones are Down

Just a quick post to let SHARE members know that our office phones are down, and have been since yesterday afternoon. Verizon is supposed to come work on the problem this afternoon -- with the strike going on at Verizon, we'll keep our fingers crossed that our phones can get fixed soon.
