I voiced my concerns to our group, but they were overwhelmingly quashed by those who consistently say the dept was doing a great job informing everyone on the issues. Communication is great! good job! So, I went silent, because my view was not shared by what appeared to be the majority. One of the consequences is, we never got a chance to be heard during this Post -NOF negotiation process about these types of decisions....at all, when we could have provided valuable input.
