It became so stressful because a lot of the workers couldn't understand what I was saying,

Public workers are saying 'it's enough' - they won't take any more cuts or burdens.

What they are saying is this isn't good enough. Workers want to be at the bargaining table and not the picket line.

It's frustrating ... one would think that injuries among warehouse workers would be higher.

In general, UTC is doing reasonably well. The Sikorsky workers are well-paid, high-quality workers. But Sikorsky is saying we're doing well, but we're in this competitive environment. I think there's a legitimate concern about health care.

This is not about me. It's just that social workers are needed. ... It really does a lot of good.
