I like that one... LOL
Something else I find funny: The maids at the hotel I work at are members of the US Steel Union.
Can somebody explain that one?

A local "nail salon" has manicurists(??) represented by the garment workers union...

Of Course.... having destroyed the steel industry there were no more steel workers so the bosses dredged up any ignoratti they could con into paying dues.

I used to work for a major copier company and I was in sales. The manager said that the mfg. group had a union and said 'guess what union it is'. I guessed Electrical Workers...nope...other guesses...nope.
He said that mgmt. knew a union would have to be in place sooner or later so they gave them the weakest union they could. The garment workers. Copier mfg. people in the garment workers union?

Yes, The Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical and Energy Workers (PACE)(which include service workers) and the United Steel Workers of America (USWA), recently merged. The new union of unions is known as the United Steel Workers (USW). I believed they dropped the "of America" part because the PACE union represented workers in Canada.
