Thanksgiving has a lot of meaning to us. The most important should be to you and your family. Remember Family and Friends comes first! When reflecting on this day remember that you work with a lot of Brothers and Sisters that would give their lives for the cause. And these same folks would never leave you behind in a time of crisis.
It's to bad we have a Governor that gets to spend his day at his mansion in Brentwood while so many of us our forced to work our shifts plus the shift of a partner that didn't come to work today. In the past if you were force to be away from your family on a holiday at least you could look forward to a little extra money in the form of holiday pay. But our Governor decided that we no longer should receive holiday pay, and hence our partners have no incentive to come to work today.
Partners hope were ever you are whether it be humping the tiers in Central or walking the yard at East, or dealing with the activation of YTS, or hearing the whining little darlings of MSF, that you take the time to say thanks on this day.
I'm hoping that there is a Judge in Alameda County that gives us thanks. And Governor while your enjoying your "day off", I do wish your family a Happy Thanksgiving!
God Bless my Brothers in Green!
Happy Thanksgiving
