I've never seen anything good come from a union shop in the last 50 or so years. They certainly don't contribute anything to the bottom line except higher costs.

While in college, one summer I worked at an assembly plant that put together engines, transmissions, and axles. I was in the options area where we put all the extra crap on the engines before they went on the line to be mated to transmissions.
Yellow Freight engines were the Cadillacs. You had to put all kinds of extra valves and wiring harness brackets, etc. I can't remember which engine they used though. We had 8 liter Detroit Diesels, Cats, and Volvos. Anyway, Yellow Freight engines were obviously the most decked out. Now, they are kaput. Also, they're not yellow, they're orange! You're ORANGE!! |

Quoted: yeah..this was the unions fault..right? Yellow is saddled with some $1.5 billion in debt as of late March, including $729.2 million owed to the federal government for a controversial pandemic-era loan the Treasury Department extended on national security grounds in 2020 View Quote |

Quoted: The Gubmint will bail out any union retirement plan. View Quote Are their retirement funds in a safe holding situation where company bankruptcy will not impact it? What about the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation? Here is one example: Automotive Industries Plan Averts Insolvency and Reduction of Benefits Through Receipt of Special Financial Assistance For Immediate Release Date July 11, 2023 WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) announced today that it has approved the application submitted to the Special Financial Assistance (SFA) Program by the Automotive Industries Pension Plan (Automotive Industries Plan). The plan, based in Dublin, California, covers 23,687 participants in the transportation industry. The Automotive Industries Plan will receive approximately $1.1 billion in special financial assistance, including interest to the expected date of payment to the plan. The plan was projected to become insolvent and run out of money in 2033. Without the SFA Program, the Automotive Industries Plan would have been required to reduce participants’ benefits to the PBGC guarantee levels upon plan insolvency, which is roughly 50 percent below the benefits payable under the terms of the plan. SFA will enable the plan to continue to pay retirement benefits without reduction for many years into the future. “Millions of people work for years, looking forward to the day when the promise of a secure, dignified retirement is kept,” said Acting Secretary of Labor Julie Su. “Today, the Biden-Harris administration is delivering on that promise for 23,687 workers by providing Special Financial Assistance in the Automotive Industries Pension Plan that ensures they can retire with the dignity they deserve.” |

Quoted: Do you like electricity? Because that's what I do. And yes, I have my crews that run with me, because I treat them like people. They in return, work their asses off for me. Crazy isn't it.

CEOs are the good guys? Don't waste your time. People here love to be fucked by their employer and hate anyone who thinks otherwise. Have you managed unionized employees? For 10 years now. I don’t seem to have the problems GD has. Either a small tight shop or...doubt. Do you like electricity? Because that's what I do.

GD cannot understand that unions only still exist because management types still can't pop their heads out of their asses long enough to treat employees fairly. |

Quoted: My last job was in Utah. Why would I surround myself with low skilled labor? My journeymen take pride in training apprentices safely and effectively. They are their future. Plus they don't want to carry dead weight or be near unsafe people. Again, what industry are you working? If you're working in unionized Starbucks or some other retail store, well, I don't know what to tell ya.

I just did a crew of about 80. Granted it was around the clock, so while I was responsible for nights, there was a lower manager in between. All the talented nonunion people I know went union. Can't blame them, may as well get paid more for your talent with better benefits. The wages and benefits I see for nonunion doing the same work is a joke. You are in Canada, this isn't an apples to apples conversation. And I'm not backing off. Take a group over 100 of (here's the key I am sure) low/no skilled unionized employees and keep them productive...indefinitely. It can be done of course but to suggest it's unicorns and skittles is the height of dishonesty. My last job was in Utah. Why would I surround myself with low skilled labor?

Easiest place to get rid of a shitty worker is a unionized construction site. There are zero guarantees of employment, so you just lay them off and send them to hall. He is probably running electrical on commercial sites like hotels. Generally been the lowest caliber of construction worker I have had the pleasure of. |

Again, what industry are you working? If you’re working in unionized Starbucks or some other retail store, well, I don’t know what to tell ya. Not all unions are made up highly skilled and sought after individuals. I have about 1k union members and about 100 managers. The quality between them is not extreme. The vast majority of them are good at what they do and motivated. There are two reasons for that. I have been with them for 8 years with standards and expectations long set and accepted. Second and perhaps more importantly the positions are filled for the most part with Wyomingites. A more salt of the earth people you will not find in this country. Now...outside of Wyoming? It's a fucking nightmare. DO you think Amazon will 'improve' with a unionized workforce? Do you want our military to unionize? |

You are just full of shit or someone lacking much for diversification as it relates to open and closed shop employees on a national level. Please dribble out more horse shit though and don't forget to indicate your industry and what locals you were working with. Heck if you're froggy throw in some jobsite names for credibility. Just keep telling yourself that while you fill the coffers of the democrats. I'm sure it makes you feel better. Rationalization comes with vestment I suppose.
