MEMORANDUM

To: — All Personnel

Subject: — Excessive Absences.

Due to the excessive number of absences, the

following rules and practices will be put into effect as
{ of this date.

my dinner, miss” .

SICKNESS: No excuse — we will no longer accept
your doctor’s statement as proof, as we believe
that if you are able to go to the doctor, you are able
to come to work.

DEATH (other than your own): This is no excuse.
There is nothing you can do for them, and we are
sure that someone else with a lesser position can
attend to the arrangements. However, we are glad
to let you off one hour early, provided that your
share of the work is ahead enough to keep the job
going in your absence.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE (for an operation): We are
no longer allowing this practice. We wish to
discourage any thoughts that you may need an
operation, as we believe as long as you are an
employee here, you should not consider having
anything removed, as you will need all of
whatever you have. We hired you as you are, and
to have anything removed would certainly make
you less than we bargained for.

DEATH (your own): This will be accepted as an

excuse, but we would like two weeks notice, as we
feel it is your duty to teach someone else your job.

SPECIAL NOTE: Entirely too much time is being

spent in the restroom. In the future, we follow the

practice of going in alphabetical order. For in-
stance, those names beginning with the letter “A”
will go from 8:00 to 8:15; ‘“B”’ will go from 8:15 to
8:30, and so on! If you are unable to go at your
appointed time, it will be necessary to wait until
the next day, when your turn comes again.

THE MANAGEMENT

FIRST THINGS FIRST

ND QUOTE: Impatient Customer: “I only get an hour
.. Waitress (in a hurry): “I’m sorry,

-ean’t discuss labour troubles with you now.”

TO RESUME

Canadian grape boycott
organizers say the successful
boycott, which was cancelled
last year, may have to be
revived.

The campaign was called off
after 98 percent of the south-

_ western United States table-

grape growers signed with
Cesar Chavez’s United Farm
Workers’ Organizing Com-
mittee.

But 10 large companies are
holding out. Bill Masterson, the
young organizer in Toronto for
the UFWOC, says the 10 are
regular shippers to Ontario
markets.

“We have already drawn up
plans for mass demonstrations
at the food store level, picket
lines and the passing out of cir-
culars and handbills,”’ said Mr.
Masterson.

NEW BUSINESS AGENT of Local
1-424 IWA Prince George, Robert
Stewart, from 100 Mile House, had
his appointment confirmed at the
Local’s Quarterly Meeting June 27,
in Prince George.

DERBY PARTICIPANTS enjoy light refreshments at the
Local’s Hall at the end of the day.
