Carlos did nothing wrong, if he did me and MANY other UAMCC members are wrong too. I have called Russ, and I can name others that are here on PWI and not that have called Russ, you know what we have called or talked to in person or even on the BB's about the benefits to many contractors, NOT just Russ. I have told contractors who ask about the UAMCC, that national companies have in the past called, I have told contractors that a national deal may be in the works, keep your eyes and ears open, you should join. So what
Russ has called me and asked about Carlos and the UAMCC so I tell him what I think. Russ has even said to me a couple times he should join and has said he was going to join and I have passed that on. Russ called today that’s why I am surprised with this thread. So like with any other contractor that I talk to that shows interest in the UAMCC I tell them what I think the benefits are, from our RFP agent getting RFPs from all over the country, to a 20% discount on a fricking rent a car or using the UAMCC logo on advertising and yes I have and many others have told contractors there are things coming up or what has already passed that they might of been able to have. Just like Carlos did
He showed interest so the way I see it, it wasn’t NO shady back room deal like its being made out to be, it was just contractors sharing with other contractors
I don't see the big deal for UAMCC members sharing what they know, to help a contractor that’s interested or thinking of joining and who are asking why they should join. Jack in The Box wasn’t named it was just something is coming. I am sure there are UAMCC members that are here on PWI, that will vouch that I have and other UAMCC members have said things are coming, heck. I and many others are proud to be working on and being a part of the best PWing in the nation today. I hate to use the word salesmanship, but when someone calls and shows interest, you sell them on the Org, plain & simple
I have known Carlos for years on these BB's, became good friends with him over the past 2 plus years and joined in when asked with the UAMCC, I have had countless conference calls with him and the transition team about the UAMCC, I talk to him almost daily about the UAMCC, Family, Friends, Business and more UAMCC talking. Carlos's integrity I would put up to anyones, he's an honorable man trying to do the best he can and I think he with the help of the team and many contractors members are doing a great job.
Russ told me he was going to join before, now he doesn’t want to join, that of course is his choice , but if the next contractor calls I expect that I Carlos or any other member will tell and sell the benefits of the org. The UAMCC and its proud members will just keep on trucking
I like Russ, but NO matter what he says in his post, Carlos is a straight up and hard working man and thats a fact. There are NO choosen few or big names the UAMCC has been and will continue to be transparent and move forward for contractors
I just had to comment have a nice day and carry on.
