Repetition
To All.. The information I post on our website is based on emails sent out by your Local Chairman.
MAKE SURE that you are on your Local Chairmans email list.
I do try to put info on here that might not have been sent out.
Remember, if you are a member of Div. 75 this is YOUR website. I never get any info from anyone that wants anything
posted on here.
If you have news you think is appropriate, send it to me and I will post it.

Division 75 Picnic
Div 75 picnic on Sunday June 29th at Wyandotte County Lake, Shelter House #8
This will be in place of the Wives Appreciation Dinner. We thought that this would be more of an offering for all members
and their families.
Volunteers are needed for several different formats so Contact Frank Javorsky or Bill Paahlar.
Hosted By our friends at Rathman O'Brien Law firm
Family Leave Act
The Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Unions. I hope this will be resolved in a timely manner.
It's too bad that the abuse of the FML caused all this in the first place.

Brother Andrew Taylor re-typed the Footage Report and Phone List in Microsoft Word. I am posting it here and I have put
this on the palm page also. This is based on the train counter and employee contributions.
Download it in Word format to print it all on one page, or open it in your Web Browser if you do not have Word.
Printing off your browser will result in a 3 page print out.

Engineer Re-Certification
To all "ENGINEERS": When you lay off to take your "engineers re-cert" you can mark off two ways.
The first and highly recommended layoff is ERC as in engineer re-cert. You will be paid your make whole.
The second is to layoff RUL, as in "RULES" and be paid the $200.00 per the UTU agreement.
I don't know any engineers who are taking a rules "TEST" and working under the UTU agreement.
Time for Taxes
Once again, tax time is here and once again, I will recommend "Taxact.com" for your tax purposes.
I have been using them for 4 years now. It has cost me $15.95 a year for federal and state returns and this includes
the E-File.
They import all of last years info and then all you do is edit your numbers. (if you used them previously)
Well, anyway, thought you might try it.
