Brooklyn Carwash Workers Join RWDSU
AFL-CIO ^ | 1/27/2015 | Mike Hall

Posted on 01/27/2015 4:18:41 PM PST by mdittmar

Carwash workers at Vegas Auto Spa in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn, N.Y., voted unanimously to join the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU), an affiliate of the United Food and Commercial Workers, on Jan. 24. They have been on strike since late November over what they claim are stolen wages and unsafe working conditions.

They’re about to find out what “stolen wages” REALLY means, now that they have joined a union!

I wonder if any of these low skill types ever thought about applying self in school?

These "low skill types", as you call them, will either have jobs or they won't. Since this is Brooklyn, which I know very well, if they don't have jobs they will be either collecting disability (from you), robbing with a deadly weapon (you again), or overdosing on heroin and running up a huge hospital bill (sent to you).

It really is a good solution for them to have jobs. And, "apply themselves in school"? You're kidding, right?

There is zero social value, and a lot of harm, sending people like this to any currently existing school beyond 8th grade. They have already done what they can do.

20% of the men aged 18-53 in the country are not working. This is a recipe for collapse, which is already well under way.

Guys working in car washes (guys like this) is a huge win for society.

I won’t use the get in your face reply.I’ll simply state that it is damn sad this nation has declined to the level you describe. Yes, I expect a helluva lot more from this newly elected republican majority as I expect loopholes in going from work to collecting checks and sitting on duff to be implemented. I say no more able bodied folks getting handouts without actively seeking a job. It is high time to stop this insanity and waste.

The carwashes are all staffed by Mexicans, Hondurans, Gautemalans, etc. This isn’t about anything except radicalizing them further and keeping them under the control of the leftist organizers.

There are entire cities now staffed by Mexicans, Hondurans, Guatemalans, Muslims, and on and on.

What’s new?

And it’s all brought to you by the same government which now has more unionized government employees than what exists in private sector America...

And you’re paying these union members salaries....

Well, it is sorta new that car washes as far north as Brooklyn are over-run with Mexicans, etc. The reconquista now reaches all 50 states. That was not so much the case 10-15 years ago.

But, yes, we are funding our own demise.

I'll never be in the same state with that car wash. As for unionized government employees...I don't vote for Democrats.

No matter, you're still paying the salaries of millions of unionized government employees...You have no choice, regardless of who ya vote for.

At least with the stinky little car wash run by illegals, you're not forced to go there like your forced to pay for unionized government employees....Of course one would have to be an idiot to allow these people to enter or even their vehicle.

BTW, I think you should calm down, as you're the only one on this thread who seemed excited or possibly paranoid.

Cheers!

Way old news...Even the so called reddest states are crawling with illegals and have been for many years.

And it’s all brought to you by the same government which now has more unionized government employees than what exists in private sector America...And you’re paying the salaries of those unionized government employees. Every bit of it.
