which part of it was untrue?

a union employee can sit on his arse & collect o/t while his machine, equipment, computer, etc. is fricked up, many times due to his own ignorance or his own intention of fricking it up, and while someone else comes in to fix it are for the most part


I admit it is the fault of a braggart workforce that only tries to accentuate the positive parts of their field and deny there is a shitty negative that goes with it.

I've personally observed it for 3o + years, yes, it's true. I was curious what you disagreed with, seems like nothing.

same said for a non-union employee. its the field that we work in. if something breaks and its beyond our repair then we extend the work to other crafts who specialize in whatever has broken. its not always about just sitting back and collecting OT. I admit, there is downtime but that is after you have done your job and are 100% sure that your equipment is reliable shape.

I'm speaking more to your description of the union worker.

Well, considering the fact that many do brag about it, in detail, very openly, and some are caught on camera literally committing the acts, one can surely understand the "bad taste" it leaves when the company can do nothing about it because their jobs are protected by the union.
