[E. Pluribus Unum]

By "professional bakers" they mean "union bakers."

Too bad, so sad.

[Mean Daddy]

I worked in a union meat packing plant years ago and was paid about $12 an hour back in 1982. Company came and said to take a $2 hour pay cut or they would shut the doors.

Union voted no, company shut the doors and broke the contract. They re-opened a year or two later at $5 to $6 an hour less.
