Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Unions down to about 12% of the workforce

Them on the tit,rally for it. Them not on it,rally against same.

I'm squarely anti-tit and have never not been gainfully employed.

Never had my job outsourced,nor my position bumped,for any one of dozens of Outfits I booted up for.

Particularily enjoyed the notion that you gotta speak Spanish and work for peanuts,to eek anything out of the Woods.

The biggest slob pieces of [bleep] I've ever seen,were/are Union....................

Penquin,Yup some of these idiots don't have a clue.

I usually have a bit of trouble deciphering your posts,.... but are you saying that tit men are inherently lazy?

I wish some of you would listen to Bristoe cause it's seems to me that a lot of you have your zipper facing in the wrong direction.

Doubly so the tit men,who never had to really work for a living,prior to aquiring suction upon the tit.

Have said it often and it remains a constant,in that I've yet to see a union MAKE a good man,but I've seen 'em ruin more than a few.

Nothing more humorous,than to watch a Union workplace,as their members "work"...................

Sing along evahbuddy!

~~~Look forrrrrrrr,... the union labelllllll~~~

Conventional wisdom (Crosby) claims that 80% of quality issues can be laid at Management's door and 20% at Labor's. That ratio probably applies to many other key measurements.

Crosby's logic is that Management buys the tools and materials, specifies the process, hires and trains the workers (and supervisors).

You can quibble about the percentages, but I think Crosby was close to the mark.

All that being said, 20% of 360 defects per thousand vehicles is still 72 defects per thousand vehicles.

Nothing like getting paid for whatcha do,instead of that which you MIGHT do,to skew relative titty suction perceptors.

I always preferred to bushel,instead of dayhack....................

Your line of work has a way of weeding out the chaff. I know of a few mulerights (I mean millrights) that could/would give you a run for your money where bull work is concerned.

Any/all lines of work,can be configured to allow only excellence. Unions are counter to that train of thought/work ethic and scoop proceeds off the top to boot.

Have never fretted my abilities and I don't work cheap....................

hey indy,



this is still America... anyone can quit a union anytime they chose to do so...
it is true that some companies have exclusive contracts with unions which require union membership in good standing as a condition of employment...
even in states without a right to work law there are many employers who have signed no agreement with any union... feel free to work there if you please.....



there are 22 states which currently have right to work laws in place... these forbid an employer from enforcing any exclusive employment contract they might enter into with a union...

i'm a union tradesman, and i make a very comfortable living... almost 100% of my income is earned in "right to work" states...
"right to work" laws are no hurdle to me or my way of life.... bring them on.....
i am working in a "right to work" state right now, repairing shoddy work done by non union "quick buck" contractors.....

by all means, bring it on.....

The question was directed to Jorge.

Tis easy to get 100K on a set of brakes if you drive from fillup to fillup on the freeway with the cruise on.

Ain't you got some steelhead that needs to be caught????? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

All ya gotta do is endeavor to persevere,... and being as how mankind has repeatedly demonstrated throughout history that it is moral and fair,..you will always get your just rewards.

I used to believe alla that,.... but then Captain Kangaroo retired,... Ward Cleaver chit & died,.. and reality set in.

"Every chicken scratches toward itself".

Water is lower than I like,to get real excited about sluggish Winter fish.

'Tis a reloading/shooting day...........................

djmbow

Even though I am stauch supporter of my union (IAM) I have had a stomach full of those described above and is my firm belief that they should be "walked out" as we call it so that someone willing to give his/her employer a good days work and reap the benefits those before them have fought to attain.
What I am against is blanket condemnations of unions by many for the incompetence of management.
I could tell you of the many hard workers that I work with who only want to provide their families with the best they are able to give in return for an honest days work as well as the piece of CHITT that works next to me that should of been fired years ago.284.

All you gotta be,is not a POS.

A good guy can go work anywhere and for top bucks,because they is few and far between.

That simple mindset,has taken me to many places and I've met many faces and somewhat miss the swaggering Tramp Lifestyle......................

The Unions are a great thing. Just look at what they did for the Warehouseman, Line Drivers & Local Drivers for Consolidated Freightways, Transcon, Lee & Estes, and so many other Long Haul Companies.

All of them are Jugs Up and just watch how hard the Teamsters tried to find all those unemployed members new warehouse or driving jobs and just see how much of a vested interest those drivers have in the Union's Retirement Trust Funds. Not much help there, Yes Sir, they put their stock in the Union and what did they get?

The Shaft, that's what and they had to supply their own Vasoline, the Union sure as hell didn't.

Fair Tax, Fair Tax, Fair Tax!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've worked Heavy industrail construction since 1987. Been with non-union outfits before and glad I lived to talk about it. In our Carpenters Union, Lazy [bleep] don't last a week. Neither do "know it all" pieces of [bleep]. And all the culls are gone by the end of the job. Nothing but qualified craftsmen. And that goes for the other trades as well. If you can't pull your weight your down the road.
Rant and rave all you want. Unless you've worked both sides of the track you ain't got a clue. If it weren't for wal-mart what the [bleep] would all those non trained, non qualified piles of [bleep] be doing. Those pricks should be union. Wouldn't be so many uninsured pukes soaking the system for help.
