He just doesn't seem to get it. It's like explaining something to a brick wall.

Oh, I get it. I still hate them. Do you think people actually like unions?

Yeah we know you hate unions. That's as far as you go with it too.

No, I know that people hate unions. I hate them. But I understand what the deal is with operations at Motiva/Shell and why they join, too.

I understand why they join to, and I wccepted your earlier explanation. I also understand that those people are cowards who refuse to make any difference in the system. They feed into the same bullshite, and they just continue the cycle.

Educating the lock-step minions. I've often thought about how I could shift Union breaking into my career. Currently, I have no connections, personally or professionally, with any union or its members.

So, you are just another lock step blow hard who just squawks your opinions that no one cares about... and especially one that doesn't even have a reason.. or even a dog in the fight?
Why are you in this discussion?
I'm not... I am just wondering why in the hell anybody gives a shite about your thoughts.

I'm not in the gates. I'm on day 3 of 7 off.

In the middle of installing a deadbolt.

His pay and benefits are superb.


And the union is demanding guaranteed 6% annual pay raises, $7500 signing bonus, 90/10 med benefits, and 3/4 union workers in the plants?

If so, the union asshats need to STFU and go back to work and EARN their freaking increases in pay/benefits/membership like everybody else.

How about negotiate a performance based contract? Oh no! That would be too much of the rugged American ideal for those leeches!

You must be a full blown retard!
So you walk into a dealership and they have a vehicle for sale. The sticker price is $50k. So do you walk up to the salesman and say I'll take that one for $50k no questions asked. It's called bargaining. The start high and the company starts low. Yet always meet somewheres in the middle. That's negotiating but obliviously your to frickin special to comprehend. I'm not taking the Unions side by no means bc they are all asshats but if you believe everything you just posted then your honestly a Fotbox.

Clearly people don't understand what it's like to be 21, be offered a 6 figure job and on day 1 be told, you have to join the union or frick you.

I'm 21. I'm joining. This is great. I'm gonna make bank. These dudes love me, this rocks.

When you're 21 and you take a big boy job, you do what the 20 years guys say. Period.

I didn't. I went to the union hall and asked lots of questions before I had signed my name.

There are plenty of reasons to be in a union besides pay, but most people already know everything about unions from a Bon Jovi song.
