Hopefully, although my work is considered a "continuous operation" so I'm sure they'll figure out some way to screw me.

ha ha ha... A parade, seriously? Those seem so boring. You just stand there and watch floats go by with people waving at you and you stand there waving back. Yé. What is the fun in that? I`d rather watch infomercials. Unless you have kids I just don`t see the point of going to a parade.

I Thought there might have been more members of organized labor on CBB

[cog]

I get that all the time even from the union guys

As I said sorry I asked :ne

The best thing is the residual checks % $ for nothing forever

nothing wrong with that

Also its nice to know if your kids need braces scripts dental care its covered

Life insurance cover all my funeral costs

So there is nothing wrong with organized labor

I do at work not in the car.

I have put 22 years in done my work over the years.

Now its someone eles turn.

My goal in the end is to get paid for not even showing up

till then I still show up 6 days a week

[LIVEHARD]

Working for me is fun as well I have 8 full time guys.

I feed them every 2.5 hours.

I cover there gas parking 95% of the time.

My client is happy as F'k

Its a win win one everyones part.

Not the worst job in the world

Yes I believe in the labor movement its been great to me.

I am scheduled to work, but at these union wages I am not bitching. I asked to work, all the other guys are drinking beer and eating bbq dinners. The upside is we also get comped 2 meals for stats if we work. I'll probably have 2 steak dinners. The other good thing is all the manglement will be out of the area, so I can seduce the pooch for 58 bucks an hour.

Good boy it should be 116 hour on labor day.

Since day one an old man taught me on a one off contract all holidays a paid at X2 if not worked and at X6 if worked

Remember the COMPANYS that pay your are worth millions and they right you off anyways.

You loose 1/2 your check to taxes so WTF enjoy

It just cost everyone else an arm and a leg directly and indirectly. enjoy it while you can and we can afford it

yup....Im a manager in a unionized firm.......muahahaha...anyway, the costs are off set to the end user...so these days are limited...Many organized labor groups arent quite so powerful these days....
I was in the union a long time as well, but i was raised on a farm,,,,work your ass off for very little..So when i was making the wages i was i worked like a mofo, only to get union guys giving me shit that i was working to fast....They would say, man, you did that job in 4 hours we take 8...If you keep going like that they will expect us all to do it....
After a quick **** off, they didnt bug me to much anymore....lol..
I have always been a working man, and will always do my best....There were a few of us like that...Then the idiots went on strike after 911, in forestry...Nice company kept us working while, many, many others were laid off, so the dipshits decided to ask for outrageous wages, and heated toilet seats,no bullshit...I refused to walk the line, stood up in the uniopn hall by myself and told them they were idiots, 1 guy grumbled i flipped my chair back and said to repeat himself....he wouldnt....So i flipped them all off, and became a manager for the second time, and thats where i stayed....
I was a union buster for awhile, my name was known throughout many a union rag and im proud of it...my specialty was culture change, and i was good at it.....CAW, IWA, steelworkers all can get carried away in todays times, and **** it up for the majority...
I think unions have their place, but it is getting smaller, and smaller as time goes on....There are still some unscrupulous companies out there that need to have protection, but now labor laws cover most of the woes....

Im going to end my part in this thread I see all the pro's and the cons I have scene the bad the good and the corruption especially in the US

I am taking a management position in 2010 in the USA the deal was too good

to say no.

I support and always will the working man women non union and union

my best to you all and happy labor day

[ironwill]

Good for you......I have been a manger for a very long time.....It is very rewarding....
I have worked both sides of the fence, and i know where my loyalties are, and they are with the guys on my crew....100 percent....
I have a few tickets.......as far as trades go, and a professional designation in management....Ive seen it all prety much in the field, in the meeting rooms, in the classrooms, automotive, steel, hydro, oil/gas, mining ,forestry/pulp/paper... etc....People are people, they mostly want respect, apaycheck, and some fair vacation...If you can motivate them to even further goals, then you did your job, if you can motivate them to do better than they ever thought they coukld, you did your job as a leader, very well....
Th thing many managers forget is, the people that work for you make you...And when you arent there, if they respect you, they will continue to do so..If they do not, you are in big trouble, and they wil break you...

Like the americans,I will pray like this;
-dear lord,we would like to thank you for this generous meal and say thanks to all the hard working people of america;muchos gracias!
