Many pundits out there today speculate the origin of the SEIU Local 250 decertification. The wide varieties of stories that have grown have been more numerous than old wives tales of how to avoid pregnancy and how to make a man love you. Well, not that numerous. I mean the decert of 250 only had an impact on a few thousand people.
So one of the many famous tales surrounding the myth and legend of the rise of NEMSA is the founding concept. Once upon a time, a mild mannered psychopathic maniac which remained silently suppressed for a decade approached a young up and coming well liked man. The mild mannered psychopath taught the up and coming entreprenuer a great many things about being an EMS unionist.
Over the course of a few years, the young man learned how to remove his experienced team leader from his position and replace him. A noble unionist move. More tactics would be mastered by the young up and coming business leader. He would sit upon his hands with small organizations, making sure they would not organize under SEIU.
As time passed, the mild mannered soft spoken homicidal psychopath would start to wonder what he created. He was feeling threatened in his security, wondering if some day he would be replaced due to lack of tactful skill.
One fine day in the early part of 2004, trouble arose. Out of desperation, the mild mannered psychopath and the up and coming business man would have to flee their occupations due to lack of performance. They quickly rounded up as many supporters as they could to help in a clandestine meeting to plan the dismantling of the empire known as SEIU Local 250.
With swift action, the mild psycho and shrewd businessman would convert the local supporters and force them into action. They started a whole new concept in multi-level-marketing schemedom. Rapidly the local supporters spread the word that a decertification was a wonderful idea and that it would be easy, productive, right and just. Propaganda started to flow like the Columbia River from the proud supporters of NEMSA.
Mayhem and discontent would ensue when the mild mannered psychopath was placed in hiding. The poor malcontent had no idea how little respect he had, how ineffective he was perceived. The young up and coming business leader would rise and take full control of the organization. He was a master debater. A powerful campaigner. The meek mild mannered psychopath would grow increasingly distrustful of those around him. He started to project his anger into hatred for those that he had been surrounded by for years.
Now I could go on with this one example of a story, but there are many versions. If your version differs, please add it to the list on this: The origins of decertification.
"I have given my word to Amy, Aultum that if they get over 75 signatures that I will with drawl my petition. " Carlos 10/6 "I will not pull the petition. " Carlos 10/10
This is just one of the rumors that I have heard out there. There are some that are even better. I just wanted to avoid any subjects that might offend the moral, ethical and just codes of conduct followed by NEMSITES. So I stuck to the cleanest version of the legend that I heard.
You where right when you said they where wives tales or even better maybe they should be called Urban Legends.......You know why there is so many variations of this story? Its because its not based in fact. Its all made up propaganda......The writers have taken a few small facts and created a large work of fiction

Ah yes. Truth and fiction, both of which 250 staff twist and pervert as rule. As I read your painful rendition of fantasy ( while you sat at your computer, your pants at your ankles) it weeps of a psychological disablity. You have been infected with 250 ( 'cuz they pay your rent) It rotted your brain. Oh yes the same old 250 song and dance...... deny, deny, deny then lie, lie, lie and if thats doesn't work try... deny,lie,deny,lie,deny,lie. Its the Dan Martin book of "unionism"
I don't know Dan Martin personally, but I know he is more solid than somebody like you monster.
It appears more and more NEMSITES have dirty little minds now that they cannot get their relief with the money shots they used to gleefully share.
Well, propaganda. I love that word. Chopping somebody up with a machete, telling them to check the short bus, that is not propaganda, just quotable and printable fact.
See ya out there at the fundraisers...................
