My mother was a member of the union where she worked.

She told me once that she did it to protect us. That if she didn't join the union "bad things" would happen.

Every few years we tightened our belts and had to budget things harsher than usual, because that was when the contract was expiring and a strike was possible.

Mom was a union member but she hated everything about it. I could tell stories about the corruption and ineptitude that she saw there.

Unions perpetuate to protect their misleadership...who are often literally in bed with the mismanagement.

Especially the NEA and AFT.

Hmmm... How is that union-labor built Gordie Howe bridge coming along?

Stinking communist bastards never miss an opportunity to yank on the heavy chains around our necks...

More proof that:
The only good communist is a dead communist...
It is our duty as citizens to help everyone be as good as possible...

If we are unwilling to do our duty, maybe we should not complain...

25 trillion dollars and 70 years later, the bridge will still be unfinished.

Eff this greasy banana republic we live in.

So, did the immigrants fixing the potholes when the bridge collapsed have a union?

The Republicans should tell Biden that the union can replace any rail lines that were on the original bridge. He’ll go for that.

No idea as I haven’t been following it that closely. I got that date from some press release webpage.

We used to employ men from at least 4 different unions - oh how I hated the leadership who were just crooks. Heard various stories from our employees about how they threw their weight around. Crooked, dirty bastards who thought they were king - and unfortunately they were.

The union leaders are soulmates with FJB.

What is so virtuous about union membership?

Being around family members? Literally, hiring family members and nepotism.

Having 3 guys to do the work of one (guaranteed jobs and salaries, but screw getting the job done efficiently).

Getting time off the job when called to man a strike line for brother unions.

Guaranteed increases of pay and benefits when the union leadership strong-arms companies with threat of strikes.

We demand full recognition and representation for the Functionally Incompetent; all preference must be given to those who are not privileged to be capable of doing anything right, especially important things.

ALL POWER TO THE SUPREME IDIOCRACY!!!!

Great.

It will be accomplished shortly after the California High Speed Rail is completed.

Cost?

If you have to ask...

Oh, and they'll rename it after some leftie icon.

Oh, but so many union leaders will also be able to afford vacation homes on the beach and pretty young second wives.

BIDEN CAMPAIGNED IN 2020 “THAT EVERY SINGLE JOB IN THE USA SHOULD BE A UNION JOB.”

I hope he chokes on those very words.
