Rumors are that the mine is up for sale!
hmmmmm!!!!
Why would a company want to sell??
Is it because gold is at a all time high?
Is it because they want to move on to big and better things?
Would it be because the managment is so out of control that the only way to get rid of them is to sell???
BINGO!!!!!
Everyone knows that when a company sells out, the salary employee are the first to go....
Mabey there is a "good person" somewhere in the company!!!!
NOT!!!!
Nothing will change...

"Good People"
MSHA has interviewed most of the people that I suggested. For what that was worth!
One of the most important ones that I wanted him to talk to, he didn't get his statement and it is probably a good thing because,
Now the company is retaliating agains't them for telling the truth....
I was told by one of my X-fellow workers that gave his statment to the investigator that, he (the investigator) was going to talk to the lawyers and that they were
"Good People"....
Their lawyers are
Good People???????????????
If they are "Good People", does that mean he thinks the company is "Good People" also???

"This report can't be used"
This report was a survey that was available for all the
employees to take. There was a PC in the lunch room that was provided for taking it. At the time of my employment it would not work with my user name and password...
hmmmmm .......
Q: Do the employees that took the survey think that the report will actually be used?
A: NOPE!!!
Q: Soooo what happens?
A: Nuttin honey!!!!
Q: Do you think the stockholders will get the report?
A: NOPE!
If the stock holders knew that managment was creating the problem they would all be down the road kicking rocks!!!!!

Question:
What do you do when there is a spy in the company?
Answer:
InstaRep!!!!
Kin Ross picks a person to be their Minor Rep!!!!!!
Yep that is right.... Kin Ross just invented another way to deprive their workers of a safe and happy workplace....
It's called Pick-a-Rep..
They went and snagged a innocent worker that has no idea of what he was being used for.
They said:
"Your our pick to be a represent our miners..."
"You are blessed by HR..."
"Now go out there and spy on the enemy!!!"
He said:
huh
They said:
It's ok, We Know What We Are Doing...
It is OUR DUTY to make sure that...
"Gold is more precious than Safety"

Discrimination
Complaint filed with MSHA!!!
I really don't have a lot of comfidence in MSHA because before I quit I made contact with the person that originally sent me the paperwork to file a complaint. When I told them that I was trapped into a safety violation they said "Oh there is nothing we can do if you have been charged with a safety violation"...... I believed that I was going to be fired because I was a representative of miners.... so I quit thinking if I quit I would have a better case.... NOT the case!!! I was told that if I would have stayed there I would of had a better chance.... Better chance of WHAT????
I was trapped!!! That is all there is to it....
I have proof that there are welders still working there that are given special preference and to this day (01/15/2008) have never been given a proper fit test....
My 8 page complaint is available for to view on the next page.

I would like to share what my last two years was like working for this company. Everything was ok till it was brought to our attention that the air quality was not being checked as we were being told. Around 12-15-2003 one of the empoyees was taken to the hospital because of "feeling sick and headaches". For the three years prior to that incident we were told that the air was tested and was fine. All of the sudden the air as not safe to work in.
This was the first incident of many that led me to become a Representative of Miners according to MSHA (Thinking I was going to do some good for my fellow workers) It is suppose to be a mining safety and health organization that is suppose to help watch over the safety and health of miners. I applied for the miners rep about two years ago on 5-31-2005. When I supplied the information provided by MSHA to my supervisor he went to loss control and gave them the paperwork. I was called into a closed door meeting with Tim G. (loss control) and my supervisor Cade S. Tim G. shook his finger in my face and told me the company refused to recognize me. He stated that "miners reps were for mines east of the Mississippi and the it ended in the 70s". I showed him the CFR section and he said it was old news. After that point I gave up because of the intimidation by my supervisors. I thought that can't be true! MSHA is CFR Code of Federal Regulations and is the law. I and the other rep e-mailed the local MSHA person and inquired. My e-mail was not answered. I took it for granted that the loss control person was right because I never heard from MSHA....That was Feb 15 2006.
Anyway long story short. I was trapped by a safety situation that lead to my possibility of being fired. I was made to wear a resperator that I was not properly fit tested for.
I had made numerous request to my supervisor to be put into another job that would keep me safe and he refused to help me. I was caught with my resperator out of position because I could not wear it under my welding hood and weld in some off positions.
It was intrapmant!!!!
I resigned before they fired me because I felt that was the only way to expose the discrimination....
NEVER IN MY LIFE have I been fired...
Only one other job did I quit and that was because my boss was a crook and I refused to cheat my customers..........
For the rest of the story contact me at the address above and I will e-mail you the whole story....
The supervisor that discriminated against me has quit! Why would you leave a job that you are well established and with benifits and go to another..... hmmmm Do you think it was voluntary?????
shishhh they are in trouble!!!
