So you would like border patrol agents to go on strike? I guess you dont care about illegal immigrants.
“Robust labor unions are a hallmark of competitive workplaces...”
Even in government work, I doubt a more convoluted sentence has ever been created.
Workers collective bargaining against the Treasury is outrageous.
Pfffft.
A lame excuse to do nothing.
Umm no. I believe that he passed that bill in 61 or 62.
Just commenting on history of tomorrow’s date.
I will always remember... not with glee, I assure you.
Go on strike.
Well after doing many salary surveys for Cities, Counties & Federal Agencies in the 90’s even then they were making 20% more than the same job in the private sector. Now more like 40%. as you went up the management levels it reversed. That is why they have to take bribes/s
The post office was going on strike too but changed their minds after Patco strikers who refused to go back to work were fired.
I remember when Kennedy got shot, I was in 6th or 7th grade and all the kids were cheering...Yay the blank lover is dead.
There was no love for JFK in Fla in the 60s.
I would agree that most, if not all of these public sector union pension plans will be in trouble shortly and are not sustainable it must be drastically dealt with sooner rather than later.
I was referring to the say police officers union defending an officer who was in a fight with a suspect and that suspect was tased And it was deemed to be a proper use of force by investigators, but an angry leftist SJW mob decided it was police brutality and a liberal mayor or councilmember try to throw the officer under the bus to appease said angry mob.
I was talking to a family member who worked in a unionized factory in the private sector. A member of the management team picked up a piece of debris that had been dropped on the floor, and was clearly a trip hazard. Well the union filed a grievance because he did not call for a Unionized janitor to pick up said Debris, Consequently the janitor who is assigned to clean that area got an extra four hours of overtime pay because a manager did his “work”.
Yep that’s definitely competitive. /s
Government employees, PUBLIC SERVANTS... Should never have been allowed to Unionize in the first place.
When POTUS, Donald J. Trump gets re-elected in a massive landslide victory in November, 2020....the federal government labor unions will begin to die unless they radically change their ways. The vast numbers of the American public and taxpayers have seen career federal workers at work, undermining, the USA, American Nation Republic. You idiots...your jobs are at stake...you better wise up...and get with the program...or you will not have your jobs in the very near future. You all screwed yourselves!!!
cash cow threatened uh oh
I cannot even imagine “all the kids cheering” or something like that. I was 7 years old and remember as though it were yesterday. Such an utterly devastating day for the country, regardless of which side politically people were on.
If Federal employees want workplace protections, they should just do the jobs they are being paid to do, instead of viewing porn and playing games. The AFGE sucks!
Federal Labor - Two words that do not go together
Govt workers do not need a union. It needs to be abolished.
“I cannot even imagine “all the kids cheering” or something like that.”
Well I can assure you they were all cheering, southern demonrats like George Wallace hated Kennedy.
