[quote:Anonymous Coward 27758970:MV8yMDUxNDY1XzM0NDc2ODYzX0RFMEREMUMx] So if you have given up pay twice and the company wants you to give up pay a third time. Even though the higher ups have given up nothing you are a "THUG". Union workers are contracted employees. Say yes or say no to the contract. How can that be that hard. If you have a contract does that make you a "THUG"? I'm Union employee! I consider myself a conservative guy. A gun lover, a lover of my savior. My contract allows for atleast someone to say something when double standards are implemeted because of my race or my gender. I work alot of 16 hour days. My friends work those and holidays. We have a contract to protect the working conditions and the amount of pay we recieve. I've been in manufacturing for 13 years. There's always someone looking to push the limits of myself and my family. My contract helps me to be protected. There's alot of people drinking the Koolaid on Unions and their contracts. Remember the people telling you alot of this stuff they themselves work on a contract. I've read some of Rush Limbaugh's books, but even he has a contract am I right? (no offense Rush luvya!) alot of things about unions are true alot are not. The war against Union employees are just another tool of control. [/quote]
