This is really sad.
The workers are stupid people. They will strike themselves out of a job. Their trademarks and recipes will be sold to the highest bidder.
The Caterpillar workers in York, PA did exactly that; they demande and demanded until they killed the proverbial goose that laid the golden eggs. And the Harley Davidson workers in York came real close, also. Thankfully, cooler heads prevailed in the Harley situation.
Of course they’re stupid, that is why they are worker bees.
“The workers are stupid people.”
For the most part you are probably right. But I bet there are a good many who know they’re comitting economic suicide but the union and peer pressure is just too much.
You’re right; these union workers really are stupid. The contract was “forced” on them not by management, but a bankruptcy judge. So the company is in bankruptcy...HELLO! Does the word BANKRUPTCY mean anything to you union morons? Last I checked it meant NO MORE MONEY. Hostess is broke.
I’ll bet the contract offers more than minimum wage, and bennies, too. After Hostess liquidates, we will see all sorts of sob stories from these “workers” whining about how they can only find minimum wage jobs without benefits. So it seems these fools have a company that’s offering them more than their skills are worth in the open labor market. A smart person jumps on that like a loose football in the end zone. A fool declines it.
These are the idiots who gave us 0bama. They have ruined our country. They will get what they want and deserve.
I ‘wonder’ what the price of the Twinkie brand/recipe will be?............
