Stuipd unions.

[acemcmac]

We have a union protesting outside of our office complex, pounding drums, obstructing traffic, chanting something about "the american dream" and handing out fliers saying that they are being "unfairly treated"

fvcking morons... we're living the american dream... what, are you pissed that someone cut off your wellfare checks or something?

If you don't like your sh!tty job, get another job :thumbsdown:

Oh, and in the spirit of Kayne West, White collar, non-union people don't give a FVCK about blue collar union people, especially while we're trying to park our cars on our way back from our 2 hour lunches.

The union workers who are protesting outside your work building are being just as productive doing what they are doing as when they are "working." Unions suck.

Bah, my new job makes me part of the union. Wish I could say "no" and NOT have them take money off my check every week.

for some reason i first read that as stupid onions....i was wondering why would someone rant about onions...

Unions are only interested in one thing, expanding their power and influence. Anyone who thinks they give a crap about the workers is delusional.

Class war? Last time I checked, union workers picking condoms out of the lake water purification plants made close to 100K. That is a good bit more than most white collared workers throughout the US...and Michigan isn't even that expensive to live in...it certainly is not LA or NYC.

unions protect the good, the bad, and the ugly. therein lies their faults.

[Queasy]

Are these actual union workers protesting or are these picketers that the union hired to do the protesting for them?

Thinking back to the union that hired protestors to stomp around outside a Wal-Mart and payed them less than what Wal-Mart pays...

Necessary evil. Over the last 100 years, the benefits of having unions in the country have FAR surpassed any disadvantages.

100 years ago maybe, today they are no longer needed for *most* jobs.

and there would be no chance that eventually things would return to the way things used to be, right? because no one would try to screw anyone for money, right? right?






right?

Unions were formed to fight against greedy power hungry men who only hired there buddies and relatives.

Who runs unions? Greedy power hungry men who only hire their buddies and relatives.

You can say no. There's some law about it. Look into it.

Not necessarily. Depends on the state. Some allow closed shops, others allow freeloaders. (right to work (for less) laws)
