Rough road but the way to kick the Union in the ass is to close the plant indefinitely. It would be a hardship but arm guards should be posted with order that any destructive Union members will be shot.

Gee, probably hard find 800 replacement workers....
What percentage of hourly wage goes to Union Dues?
How many weeks will they have to strike, before company reaches break-even to meet the union price?
Union thugs are the only winners in these battles.

As Democrats and their Union henchmen tighten the noose we can see the entire State of Illinois slowly pass out as they are being strangled to death. Illinois is now circling thedrain.

About 800 union workers who rejected Caterpillar Inc.'s latest contract offer walked off the job Tuesday at a plant in Joliet.

About 800 union workers who rejected Caterpillar Inc.'s latest contract offer walked off the job Tuesday at a plant in Joliet. Best thing would be for them to just go away permanently and let Caterpillar hire folks who actually want to work.

Caterpillar can head for a Right-to-Work state, but will face the wrath of the Union-picked NLRB (just as Boeing did).
Most likely, China will have a new Manufacturing Company locating there.

Why not strike? The economy is solid and grow,,,,,,,uh,,,,,never mind.
To: robowombat
During a meeting of Printing Industry executives a trip to this plant was arraigned. Note is was during one of the few intervals of labor peace at Caterpillar and surprising the unions were not on strike.
As we toured the facility, there were numerous examples of low mentality union workers walking around wearing T-Shirts with “F__K Caterpillar” in bold letters.
We were not impressed. It takes a small union mind to tell the company signing your pay check to get “F—Ked”

They oughta close the whole damn plant, and open a new one in a right-to-work state.
After seeing the autoworkers' union and the mineworkers' union screw my dad around, I have NO SYMPATHY for any union. At the upper echelons, ALL unions are communist organizations, and have only POWER on their minds.

Didn't obama show up here to give a speech about how the stimulus was creating new jobs just days before Caterpillar laid off a couple of hundred workers?

CAT have a huge presence here in TEXAS. Massive plants are being constructed and non union. The little union boys had better grow up, the party is about over
To: robowombat
I worked at Cat in Joliet back in ‘53. Swept floors mostly while learning how to use a CandC and all the other machines. Hones, lathes, radial drills, etc. Great times. Was greatful for the experience.
To: robowombat
Caterpillar was essentially bribed by Gov. Quinn not to relocate two years ago with a bunch of tax breaks. Now the union is flexing its muscles. Time for Cat to abandon this accursed state an relocate to a right to work state. Screw the union thugs. Shutter the plant and move out bag and baggage.
