I have a question for the pro union.
What do you do at work when you have a slacker or a lazy guy doing the same thing you are (job description)? From what I understand it's hard to get rid of him.
I also thought it was interesting that your union gave millions to obama’s campaign, and he lost Westmoreland county. In fact he lost all of Pa except for Allegheny and Philly. Makes you wonder.....
What about the same guy in non unions?Union workers are subject to discipline actions, & dismissals.I find it intresting that the republicans,got caught with their fingers in the cookie jar.10M of tax payers money to political campaigns.Makes you wonder.

Steel,
I'm really asking a question. One of the problems is that everybody hears stupid things that happen in a union shop.
I also understand stupid things happen in no union shops, but in the above case the slacker is simply fired. Can you do that in a union shop?
The other thing is how do you justify paying someone 15-18.00/Hr to push a broom?
My statement on the union donating was to show unions could do things against the majority's wishes. I'm not saying unions are bad, I just don't think they are right for EVERY shop.
Where did you read about the republicans in the cookie jar? I'd like to follow up on that.

Have you ever considered that what your definition of "butt kisser" really is someone who is following the companies rules without the union mentality arrogance against owners and management?

Did you read the post, or are you just another obama-ite looking for trouble?

One that I don't need to join with a mob in order to advance and do my job well and make a good living.

Why can't you do that on your own?

I do my job well, make a great living and don't kiss anyone's butt. I also do it without the need of joining anyone or paying anyone dues.

What IS your obsession with butt kissing? Is that part of the local's indoctrination?

So, what is your opinion of the clowns in the video picketing themselves and accusing their union president of union busting?

As I was checking on the weather conditions I happened to notice the tags at the bottom where people can post comments about a subject of their choosing. I learned something from it. Every post in regards to something happening in the Latrobe Area winds up resulting in 40-50 comments where people merely insult each other. I am throwing my opinion out with this. WHO CARES! In the Latrobe Area you win by insulting. What method of argument is that. I can call you every name under the sun but never have any substance to an argument. You are all a disgrace to this community and one of the main reasons we stay stuck in a society of bigotry and stupidity.

Now I look forward to the insults where somebody makes a comment about my reasoning for no question mark after one of the sentences. Before you type it, get over yourself.
