The union didn’t build it. Harley did.

I get annoyed at union made/union pride stuff. You’re a cog in the machine.

Back in 2009: Employees at Harley-Davidson Inc.’s largest factory agreed to job cuts of nearly 50%, more work-rule flexibility and an unusually long labor deal, in exchange for the motorcycle maker’s commitment to invest $90 million in the plant.

The unusual seven-year pact at the company’s massive York, Pa., plant represents an acknowledgment by the plant’s work force of the vulnerability of well-paid U.S. manufacturing jobs. Harley had threatened to move the jobs from York to a new plant in Kentucky if the union rejected the contract.

A mostly disruptive cog at that.
