Sure makes you proud, doesn't it ?

  Last year Barack Hussein Obama took our tax money and bought out Chrysler. Then he immediately gave half of it to the union...well, not all tax money, some was borrowed and our kids & grandkids will be paying for the generosity of Barack Hussein Obama.
  So how much do those unions appreciate our children being thrown into debt ? Why look at them celebrating our gift, on break with booze and drugs.  Then they go back for 3 more hours of building "quality vehicles".
  Looks like we've put addicts on the gravy train..at our children's expense..

I put that on my favorites.  Half an hour to go get booze, drink booze, smoke weed, and come ,back to the factory.  they didn't have time to eat, get the smell of alcohol and weed off of them, and probably didn't even show up to work sober and fed either.  it takes me half an hour to drive a mile each way, take the dog out, and eat lunch.

HEH, our tax $s at work. The bailout was all about buying votes, and it worked. POWDERMAN.

Another good ole American union, standing there applauding Obama, because he stole our money, and handed it over to them.

IMO they handled this all wrong!!
They should have called the cops and let them in on the deal and busted them right on the spot!!
Now, instead they are just suspended from their jobs and the union is working to put them back to work.
Nothing will happen to them legally because they can't prove they were smoking pot.
Maybe could get them for drinking in public, maybe.

I knew a guy who worled at GE in Lou a few years back. We talked on the cb every night. He actually worked ONE NIGHT a week, but got paid for 40 hrs. He'd clock in every day and go home. There was a big group of them doing this and they took turns staying and clocking everybody out. One night he was really upset, said he had to go back to work, the company finally caught them. There were no punishments, fines, or penalties, the union backed them. Within a month it started all over again. Man, what  do employers expect??? 40 hrs work for 40 hrs pay??? Mercy. POWDERMAN.

Look out fella's... there's a few guys on here who think unions are cat's a$$ and they'll fight to defend this kind of union nonsense.

UNIONS ARE LEECHES THAT SUCK THE LIFE BLOOD OUT OF COMPANIES!!
Just my .02

Union member=scumbag
Government union member=lying scumbag
Tenured union member=lazy scumbag

People join unions so they don't have to work hard.

rather than have a few rich partners or a rich family own and run a business and skim half the profits right off the top and THEN let the trickle-down start falling, let an entire bureacracy fight with the top dogs over who gets more and "fairness" and then the guys on the bottom REALLY get screwed while the union and owners fight over "who's the boss".  it's retarded.

It would have to get big enough first. Then if you didn't feel like working, no big deal the union will keep your job. If you want you could smoke dope and drink beer at lunch time, screw the company, if you get caught the union will have your back. The best part of all is that you could hold your company hostage for more money than your labor is worth. You will be able to hold them hostage for other goodies also. You will be able to come to work late as often as you want, just have a sob story ready for your boss. He can't do anything anyway, you have your corrupt union to back you. Its a good idea to start a union. Heck look at all the tax payer goodies the UAW got. Only thing is you have to vote for people like Obama. No problem there huh. As long as he gets us tax payer money, all is good.
