Used to have to work with those guys. And the CWA. Sucked to have to call in a union guy to swap out a video card or network adapter. A five minute job took over an hour.
I really did have better things to do.
I used to do electrical work for a company that made modular offices to be installed in factories, utility plants, etc.. Installed one in a Big GE plant East of Cleveland. I wasn’t in a union, I was a private contractor. The union guys really hassled me while I was doing the job. After several days, I finally finished, and was heading to the parking lot. One of the union guys came up and said, “I’m sorry I hassled you! I had to though. You do great work, very neat work. Wish my guys were as good as you.” Made me feel pretty good!
