  • Episode 25

    Episode 25 clearly shows how out of touch some of these NBAs are. Give Caref a little credit that he makes the “show” of going and carrying his assignment.

But I do not agree how he is pressuring carriers into doing it with in my opinion is fear mongering. A lot of our brothers and sisters are struggling and I’m sorry, brother, but you’re a clown for doing this. And your excuse of well, maybe work some overtime brother no if we get a higher pay wave absolutely I’m sur... more
