Quoted: Funny how quickly the ignorant show up to yell their nonsense. Go to China, or India, or Vietnam, etc, to e see what the working conditions are without unions. Go actually read history and see what it was like in the US before unions. You blame guns for “gun crime”, right? So it’s the unions fault corrupt people ruin some of them? Not a perfect analogy, but it works. View Quote A lot of that was pre OSHA and a host of other laws. Non-Union jobs seem to be doing quite well and are not in any of the conditions of the other countries. Unions have out-lived their usefulness. |

Good. Refuse to work and I’ll refuse to pay. See how that works.

I'm old so only guessing but is this one of those 'fuck around and find out' type of situations? Elon don't play Holmes.

Oh, you didn't post any because you're like the brainwashed liberal college kid who tries to take on some like Ben Shapiro with nothing but feelings based talking points given to them by their favorite talking heads. Have you .YOU been to factories in India and China where kids work for 15 hours a day and basically get paid food (barely) for the day? Have you been to these factories when a worker gets hurt? They get whisked right off to the hospital and given the best treatment! Oh .wait. The opposite happens. And guess what, smart guy, the same thing happened here in America not 100 years ago. So yeah, you're ignorant. You don't have a clue. Not a fucking clue. You turned on the tv, your brain switched to a highly suggestive state, and you got fed bullshit.

I wish him well, but I wouldn't be surprised if it all burns to the ground. |

Lol SEIU. What a cum guzzling dumpster fire of incompetence and corruption.

Zero Fucks Given. They should not have protested after the 20 (probably excess, like everything else at Twitter) were let go.
Unions today mostly stand for paying people as much as possible for doing as little as possible, and zero accountability for fuckups. |

Quite possibly the most easily replaceable worker on planet earth. Where the hell did they get the idea that they had any bargaining power?

Quoted: So you are willing to work in the same conditions? Unions even if you do not like it are why we enjoy a safe working environment, 8 hour work day and 5 day work week. All of you need to look up working conditions during the industrial revolution in this country. It amazes me how many of you are fine working for next to nothing in slave like labor conditions. View Quote LOL, our union actually fought for a pay cut. Oddly enough, they won. Nothing like being forced to work 10 yours of OT a week for straight pay. Their reps stood before congress and said we wanted it because it would make our paychecks "more predictable". There was never a vote amounts members and of course it was bullshit. Strong work NBPC. Corrupt fucks. |

My personal experience with and why I detest unions comes from when I worked for UPS. I was there during the Teamsters strike in the 90's. The main issue was who controlled the pension. UPS was paying millions into a Teamster's pension that went to fund many other companies besides UPS employee pensions. UPS wanted to create their own pension fund for employees that they would pay less into and employees could get more.
UPS offered all the employees a several dollar an hour raise and a cash bonus of $500-1,000 with the condition that they would control the pension. Most employees wanted to vote on it and it would have likely passed. The union would not allow a vote. Eventually the strike ended and we all got a $.25 an hour raise, and no bonus, but most importantly to the union, the teamsters maintained control of the pension money. So those who claim how great unions make the work environment can go suck it. The unions are in it for themselves, not their members. I had a buddy who worked at non-union FED-EX who was making more then I was, and had better benefits, then me at unionized UPS. |

Maybe they're the reason YOU don't work 16 hours a day for 10 cents an hour, but plenty of us have skills beyond that and enough brain cells to rub together to make our own decisions and negotiations. It only takes a village for the village idiots. |

Do you guys remember that 'illegal migrant walk out day' or whatever the fuck it was back around 2005?
It was when the illegals started getting really brazen to the point that they organized a day where illegals that actually had a job would not show up for work that day in protest? Well, I worked at a large company in Florida. We had a nightly cleaning crew that from the few times I saw them was 99.9% Mexican women that basically couldn't speak 2 words of english. When the 'protest' happened, they happened to not show up that night and the next day all of our office trash cans were still full and the 3 paperclips on the floor happened to still be on the floor. I found out a few days later that whoever dealt with the contact fired them a day or two later for not showing up. The rest of us basically laughed at this 'protest' as the only effect it had on us had you gotten deported because you're an illegal, was that we needed to take out our own trash at the end of the day - Your terms are acceptable. |
