We invite Union Brothers to recycle used parts removed from mod projects destined for land fill sites and make a few bucks in the process.      

ElevatorExchange.com lets you list anything you want to sell for absolutely free. Their advantage over sites like ebay and Craigslist is that all of our listings are focused exclusively on the elevator and escalator market.

ElevatorExchange does not sell parts directly. They simply link sellers and buyers to the best deals available across the US and Canada.

Typical sellers include: parts suppliers and service companies with excess inventories (who want to sell for cheap), modernization companies (who want to clear out perfectly functioning components removed during renovations) and anyone else looking for an easy way to sell parts that would otherwise be taking up valuable warehouse space.

Companies purchasing at ElevatorExchange include any elevator and escalator service, repair, modernization and new installation business looking to acquire parts and components for significantly less including used and hard-to-find parts that cannot be located by any other means.

When you post, your email and contact info is not listed so that you can remain anonymous and avoid unnecessary spam. When someone is interested in purchasing your part, you will simply receive a notification in your inbox and you can follow up with them as you please.

ElevatorExchange.com -- Find it for less. Post it for free. Sell it fast.

I knew Charlie at Devens. He was a great friend and an inspiration. When his wife died, it was a tough time for him, but his faith, temperament, fortitude and grace enabled him.
I used to play the guitar while he played cards with the other guys; he used to comment " When the Hell are you going to learn some new notes!'
Rest in Peace, old friend.

TThanks for posting the email  about "The Villages" IUEC Retirees Club.  But I spoke a little too soon.  The meeting of The Retirees Club has been moved to October 20th due to our Golf Outing on October  21st.  However I do appreciate the thought & extend an invitation to all to attend our meeting and enjoy the company of your Brothers (no Sisters yet)

Hello Brothers


After a long hot summer, the winter season of the "The Villages" IUEC Retirees Club is upon us.  As the snow birds fly back to their coops in The Villages, the weather seems to be cooling down a bit.  We have a few added starters in "the Club".  A couple of Brothers from the Florida Locals, one from the Washington DC Local and another from one of the Ohio Locals.  We seem to be spreading out quite well.  We also have Brothers from Palm Coast, Orlando, Tampa & Ocala.  I've included several of our "Elevator Constructor" Correspondents in our mailing list with hopes that they might include a little paragraph about our "Club" so some of the Brothers from their Locals, in our area, will enjoy the fellowship that we've enjoyed @ our luncheons.  

It is apparent that an Elevator Man is an Elevator Man, no matter what part of the country we come from.  And the best part of our luncheon is building elevators - no tools - just memories, of which I'm sure we all have a lot of, from our career in the Industry.  Bro. Dick Noval from Local #4, Boston has made up name tags for all of us so we won't be guessing @ names.  I'll email Dick with the names of our new members so they will have the tags @ the meeting.

Bros. Ed Brock & Ken Kuhn reconnoitered the Country Clubs in "The Villages" and decided to have our Luncheon @ the prestigious Arnold Palmer Legends Country Club (the place won't be the same after we're through with it).  The date is set for October 21st.  So set aside the date & we'll firm up the time in the near future.  That's it for now Brothers - MARK OCTOBER 21ST on your calendar and in the meantime - PLAY SAFE AND STAY OUT OF MISCHIEF

Fraternally
Frank Dolan, Sr.

Jim is Local 8

Hi,

I am a retired Elevator Man that had worked on both sides of the fence in the Western States (Union/Office) for 40 years. I have just finished a 6” x 9’ 240 page book “Elevator Man Stories”.

The book is a collection of funny, colorful and serious memories of working the past 40 years in the elevator trade. Our industry now has a pretty accurate recollection of what it was like back in the 1960's, 70's and 80's. It was a different time working on equipment that required a high level of expertise.  A must read for anyone connected with the elevator industry!

It is now in publication and will be available for shipping in about two weeks.

It is available for advance orders at ElevatorGear.Com and EBay 110584219029 And Amazon.com in the near future

The price is $20.00 w/free shipping to US & Canada

Immediate payment is not required

Or contact me at: elevatorinfo@comcast.net

I think you guys will get a kick out of it.

Thanks & Work Safe,

Jim Collett

THE FOLLOWING AMENDMENT WILL COME TO A VOTE  THIS THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 16, 2010 AT THE UNION HALL IN L.I.C.:
 
ARTICLE IV : DUES, FINES & ASSESSMENTS


ORIGINAL LANGUAGE:

SECTION 7. A member being incapable, from any unavoidable cause, to pay his dues, fines or other monies, shall report his case to the Secretary-Treasurer, in person or in writing. The members may exempt him from paying the same by a two-thirds vote or grant time extension.


Whereas: the current dues structure places a financial burden upon an unemployed member.


Be it resolved:

Any member in good standing who has been employed less than 80 hours in any calender month for any of the following reasons: Laid off for lack of work, Disabled due to any injury whether work related or not, or Disabled due to long term illness, shall be required to pay only Per Capita Tax fees to the International Union and any other Per Capita Tax fees to other trade organizations the Local pays on the members behalf in its jurisdiction for that calender month. The member shall retain all rights as a member in good standing under this provision.

The Per Capita fee schedule shall be furnished to any member on demand.

The member will only be obligated to pay the Emergency Relief and Death Benefit assessments. No other assessments shall be levied for the length of the members unemployment.

In the case of unemployment due to lack of work, the member must be ready, willing and able to work and seeking employment through the hiring hall. Any member who refuses a job referral in His/Her class shall not be eligible for dues relief under this section.

In the case of disability due to injury or long term illness, the Secretary-Treasurer may request the member furnish supporting documents signed by an M.D.

 

I URGE ALL MEMBERS WHETHER THEY ARE EMPLOYED,UNEMPLOYED OR UNDEREMPLOYED TO COME AND ASK QUESTIONS AND THEN VOTE THEIR CONSCIENCE.
