SPSE and Staff relations

Why doesn't SPSE collect information from both members and non-members on LLNS Staff Relations practices to collectively demonstrate SR operational patterns instead of letting individual LLNS employees be "picked off" by the SR system?

SPSE employee concerns are genuine, but they need to include non-member attention before they pop out of existence in the LANSLLNS LLC landscape.

Those of you who were not capable of escaping from the lab have only yourselves to blame for SPSE's inability to protect you.

SPSE is unable to "protect" anyone. Unless you give them lots of your hard-earned money. Which they will use to support political candidates you don't like. Sigh...

This individual is completely ignorant to the laws that govern union dues usage. His statement for the use of dues money would be an illegal use.

OK, you thank SPSE for the fact that you got to "work in hell"??

Just what exactly did SPSE do for your money ($300 per year)?? Since they have never had legal authority to bargain for LLNL employees?

Please read again ..."Thanks to SPSE, who saved my neck."
$300 a year was a lose change compared to the work SPSE put in to fight off the fangs of the lab for me. I am grateful to have SPSE at the lab. I was a member of SPSE. I recommend every employee to join the society.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
