HR isn't your friend.

If it wasnt for Unions, companies would pay 3rd world wages. Is there bullshit rules and clauses, absolutely.!

Unions are like the welfare system. People need to figure out shit on their own, without a new set of parents into adulthood.



If unions didn't exist, MAYBE we could teach people how to individually negotiate for what they want?



Naw, too easy.

I work for a Fortune 500 company and have never been in a union. My pay and benefits were determined by the market. "Nah, nobody likes working for company "X", they have horrible pay." Company X either raised their wages or they found themselves getting exactly what they're paying for....less qualified people.

I will say, I work in close contact with union people and it's amazing. They literally cannot do anything wrong.

Guy walks into girls' bathroom, it's okay, he wasn't done talking to her.
Guy starts a fight with someone, it's okay, he falsified a federal document stating what happened and nobody wanted to do the paper work so, the other guy is fired (not union).
Girl spends 3-4 hours of a 12 hour shift sleeping in her car......not a problem.

Could be different because these are fed employees, but the federal workforce is the biggest union around.

Using a company like Ford as an example, let's say they have 35,000 hourly employees. Do you think Ford would rather negotiate with each of those folks individually, or do you think they'd rather do it in one fell swoop via a union contract?

I have a friend that joined the laborers union a few years ago, his stories are pretty ridiculous.

Like how moving the rebar is his job, but tying it is for the iron workers, so if they are running behind he isn't allowed to jump in and give them a hand. He told me there was almost a fight between supervisors one day because the carpenters weren't supposed to be getting their own lumber, they were just supposed to be using it, so by moving their own material it violated some labor agreement.

Sounds like a circus to me.

I never could understand why any competent, hard-working individual would allow a union to limit their earning potential.




A union is just a microcosm of socialism with the producing segment of it's members propping up the lazy and intellectually challenged members.

I dislike unions in general....they have no higher moral standing than an organized mob.

That said, from my personal experiences, there is (often) a large skill gap between an IBEW electrician and your run of the mill non-union electrician. Their training program must be top notch.

(I am not in a union myself, but I have my own IBEW sub contractors at my disposal to use and abuse)
View Quote


Oh yeah, like how in a Union plant I work in that requires their IBEW Electrician to perform lockouts and I am not allowed to enter the MCC Room to verify the correct equipment is locked out. Even though I have the proper arc flash protective gear and am a school trained sparky. This cat fakes a verification check on said equipment to shut me up about it. I didn't know at the time....but I surely found out when the large fan started up when I was removing the belt guards. Imagine my anger and the CYA he and his buddies pulled when I tried to make an issue of it.

Yep, fuck a union. In the 90's I had to deal with one during a start up of the equipment I was installing. They had a crane that moved cylinders around that we plated. I couldn't run the crane, and they required 2 people to run it. One to hold the control and one to fuck off and do nothing. That was they're rules and whenever I needed them to move one for me they would dick around for an hour or two just to hold me up.

One day I took lunch in the room with the crane, tucked off in a corner, nobody knew I was there. All of a sudden I heard the crane fire up. I looked over and there was the biggest troublemaker, a stupid cunt that we all hated. Most importantly, she was by herself. I grabbed my camera and snuck up behind her, then I said "smile". As she turned around with the control in her hand, the crane next to her I took her picture and then asked where her 2nd was. She got this look on her face like "oh fuck". I told her I was giving that photo to everyone and anyone I could find, she started getting all pissy and I told her to fuck off.

The next day I went in the break room and about a half dozen of the turds were sitting in there. I had already ratted them out. One of them said "you'
re pretty brave coming in here". I calmly walked over to him and asked him if he knew who the fuck I was. They're all sitting there looking like they're getting ready to jump. He said no or something, I can't really remember. So then I asked them if they would like I could call the barracks and have my old man and the rest of the State Police come over and beat the living fuck out of them. That he would be glad to beat some pussy union ass because they really didn't like them or the people they worked for. Where I grew up nobody fucked with the SP, and my dad worked organized crime, so he really didn't like them.  I proceeded to dress him down in my best DI manner. They backed down and I never had an issue with them. Someone probably checked and found out I wasn't lying. Anyway, they ended up closing the place down because of all the bullshit, so they all lost their jobs within a year or two. Fuck em...
So you told them you would call your daddy the cop and have him beat them all up ?  

LOL. GD is the best.

Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

Does your daddy still come beat up the people who pee in your oatmeal, or has he passed the wand to you so you can beat up the people who piss in your kid's oatmeal?  Not picking on you or anything.  I always wondered what it would be like to not have to personally cash the checks my mouth wrote.  And to have my daddy do it.  Not my brothers, not my crew, but my daddy.  I'm in awe, man.  Fucking awe.

Either way, it's still funny about snapping the picture of the person violating procedure in the crane.



Thanks man! The other tough guys are obviously tier 1 operators.. Not sure how being dependent on your spouse plays into this. But normally parents, especially bad ass parents, would be willing to give out a beating if they're kid was attacked, I feel sorry for those that didn't have such support. But when you've got a dad like mine you know he's got your back. You guys probably heard of him. He's from TX, he was also a Ranger, last name Walker. I do believe you've come to realize who he is....

Of course.

This explains why ~90 percent of the work force in the US makes minimum wage, lives in mud huts and can't read, right? Because, other than union jobs, the US is straight up third world.

Got it.

It's certainly not the dumbest fucking thing I'll read today but, It's a God-damned contender.

Yep, fuck a union. In the 90's I had to deal with one during a start up of the equipment I was installing. They had a crane that moved cylinders around that we plated. I couldn't run the crane, and they required 2 people to run it. One to hold the control and one to fuck off and do nothing. That was they're rules and whenever I needed them to move one for me they would dick around for an hour or two just to hold me up.

One day I took lunch in the room with the crane, tucked off in a corner, nobody knew I was there. All of a sudden I heard the crane fire up. I looked over and there was the biggest troublemaker, a stupid cunt that we all hated. Most importantly, she was by herself. I grabbed my camera and snuck up behind her, then I said "smile". As she turned around with the control in her hand, the crane next to her I took her picture and then asked where her 2nd was. She got this look on her face like "oh fuck". I told her I was giving that photo to everyone and anyone I could find, she started getting all pissy and I told her to fuck off.

The next day I went in the break room and about a half dozen of the turds were sitting in there. I had already ratted them out. One of them said "you'
re pretty brave coming in here". I calmly walked over to him and asked him if he knew who the fuck I was. They're all sitting there looking like they're getting ready to jump. He said no or something, I can't really remember. So then I asked them if they would like I could call the barracks and have my old man and the rest of the State Police come over and beat the living fuck out of them. That he would be glad to beat some pussy union ass because they really didn't like them or the people they worked for. Where I grew up nobody fucked with the SP, and my dad worked organized crime, so he really didn't like them.  I proceeded to dress him down in my best DI manner. They backed down and I never had an issue with them. Someone probably checked and found out I wasn't lying.

Using a company like Ford as an example, let's say they have 35,000 hourly employees. Do you think Ford would rather negotiate with each of those folks individually, or do you think they'd rather do it in one fell swoop via a union contract?

Unions are like the welfare system. People need to figure out shit on their own, without a new set of parents into adulthood.

If unions didn't exist, MAYBE we could teach people how to individually negotiate for what they want?

Naw, too easy.
 


Using a company like Ford as an example, let's say they have 35,000 hourly employees. Do you think Ford would rather negotiate with each of those folks individually, or do you think they'd rather do it in one fell swoop via a union contract?

I would suggest that any large corporation would prefer to deal with employees individually. They do it all day, every day. Every asshole has a boss, that boss is capable (ostensibly) of determining an employee's ongoing value to the organization and allowing for raises, changes in PTO and other benefits.

Is your argument that unions provide value to the employer in that they don't have to negotiate with individuals? Because, that's how the ENTIRETY of the non-union world runs. There's no value to the employer from the union .... if unions were beneficial to employers, they wouldn't need federal legislation that protected their very existence. It wouldn't be necessary.

If you ever want to figure out when something is harmful and unneeded in commerce, all you have to do is look at what it takes to get rid of it. If there's a law saying it has to stay, it's probably a bad idea, on its face.

Never been union, but I've worked several places where a lot of the blue-collar work was unionized, it could be fucking ridiculous.



At GE - need a power strip with a twist-lock connector to go in a rack in the data center.  TWO electricians come out holding it between them.  Oh, and they scheduled all of their work for after hours, but "worked" a daytime shift, meaning they goofed off or slept in their office all day and any real work was overtime.




At Cox Communications - first week I was on the job, the electrician first shut off power to the data center because his breakers were mislabeled, then a few days later he bumped into the emergency power-off button because he didn't have a cover over it.  Later gets promoted to "data center manager" and fires the guy who had been racking and cabling all of our servers so he could have the union electricians do it.  Who immediately stopped following the color coding standards for network cables (black for console, blue for normal data, pink for crossover, etc) and regularly stripped threads and heads off bolts using their power drills.

i did an internship at this same hotel in late 2004.  when i came back last year some of the same people i worked with then were in the same position as they were 11 years ago, doing the same job at the same prep table.  the only difference is their pay rate thanks to the union-mandated $1 per year raise.

And for the record...he did come pick me up from work one day and they got all excited but he didn't sign any autographs so then they were disappointed.  So in the end they were sad. Although one union guy said he was gonna call his wife, apparently she teaches gym and is pretty bad ass herself. Chuck dad just said to bring it on!

Yep, fuck a union. In the 90's I had to deal with one during a start up of the equipment I was installing. They had a crane that moved cylinders around that we plated. I couldn't run the crane, and they required 2 people to run it. One to hold the control and one to fuck off and do nothing. That was they're rules and whenever I needed them to move one for me they would dick around for an hour or two just to hold me up.

One day I took lunch in the room with the crane, tucked off in a corner, nobody knew I was there. All of a sudden I heard the crane fire up. I looked over and there was the biggest troublemaker, a stupid cunt that we all hated. Most importantly, she was by herself. I grabbed my camera and snuck up behind her, then I said "smile". As she turned around with the control in her hand, the crane next to her I took her picture and then asked where her 2nd was. She got this look on her face like "oh fuck". I told her I was giving that photo to everyone and anyone I could find, she started getting all pissy and I told her to fuck off.

The next day I went in the break room and about a half dozen of the turds were sitting in there. I had already ratted them out. One of them said "you'
re pretty brave coming in here". I calmly walked over to him and asked him if he knew who the fuck I was. They're all sitting there looking like they're getting ready to jump. He said no or something, I can't really remember. So then I asked them if they would like I could call the barracks and have my old man and the rest of the State Police come over and beat the living fuck out of them. That he would be glad to beat some pussy union ass because they really didn't like them or the people they worked for. Where I grew up nobody fucked with the SP, and my dad worked organized crime, so he really didn't like them.  I proceeded to dress him down in my best DI manner. They backed down and I never had an issue with them. Someone probably checked and found out I wasn't lying. Anyway, they ended up closing the place down because of all the bullshit, so they all lost their jobs within a year or two. Fuck em...



Because State cops will just roll to some bussiness and start beating the shit out of people because one of their kids said so?

K.........


Well my dad can beat up your dad..so there.

I would suggest that any large corporation would prefer to deal with employees individually. They do it all day, every day. Every asshole has a boss, that boss is capable (ostensibly) of determining an employee's ongoing value to the organization and allowing for raises, changes in PTO and other benefits.



Is your argument that unions provide value to the employer in that they don't have to negotiate with individuals? Because, that's how the ENTIRETY of the non-union world runs. There's no value to the employer from the union .... if unions were beneficial to employers, they wouldn't need federal legislation that protected their very existence. It wouldn't be necessary.



If you ever want to figure out when something is harmful and unneeded in commerce, all you have to do is look at what it takes to get rid of it. If there's a law saying it has to stay, it's probably a bad idea, on its face.

I will make it short. Iam a Union guy. Our union has supported democrats forever. I dont like it but i live with it.



The new hires coming in are getting fucked. Low wages, no retirement, and 4 years to top out in a classification. It would be worse without a Union.



A fortune 500 company looks out for its stock holders  ( dont get me wrong i own stock too)

HR isn't your friend.

If it wasnt for Unions, companies would pay 3rd world wages. Is there bullshit rules and clauses, absolutely.!

E.G. Job banks, being offended, abuse of the fmla rules and the list goes on and on.



I defend the Unions that look out for the hardworking people. The shitbirds that always have an excuse can fuck off.




Unions are like the welfare system. People need to figure out shit on their own, without a new set of parents into adulthood.



If unions didn't exist, MAYBE we could teach people how to individually negotiate for what they want?



Naw, too easy.

 




Using a company like Ford as an example, let's say they have 35,000 hourly employees. Do you think Ford would rather negotiate with each of those folks individually, or do you think they'd rather do it in one fell swoop via a union contract?

Not exactly true. There is a huge amount of work and cost involved in performance appraisals

metrics etc. Under a union contract everyone person gets paid the same for the same work.

Business save money there.

Raises are negotiated every few years at a very low cost to the employer. In FL unions have

very little power. The union contract brings consistency to discipline. The good sides outweigh

the bad sides for a company in a right to work State Like FL.

I used to work for a company in Jax that was non-union. A few people decided to try to unionize it and were basically told to fuck off by damn near everyone that worked there. Nobody wanted anything to do with them.

Fuck unions.

The majority of the black firefighters don't join the union, They hang with the Stentorians. They get the benefit of the union negotiations, benefits and other union wins without paying dues. I never saw anyone that wasn't a union member take any real grief for it and we were about 97%. In my orientation, there was one day when all the different groups show up and make a pitch. Union, relief assn., benefit&welfare, united way and on and on. It was kinda funny the way the training captains handled it. The papers would get passed left to right. Everyone was signing and passing right. One guy stalled and was asked WTF are you doing?!! Just sign the fucken thing and pass it on!!
The Stentorians don't make a pitch in the open, they sneak into the station and corner some new boot and get them to sign up that way. I saw one guy get tossed out of the station doing that.

I remember when I got hired as a firefighter. They had the union come in during break at orientation. They said you don't have to join the union here in Fla. but all firefighter are in the union and if you don't join now and get to your station and figure out after meeting with the union firefighters that you should have joined. You'll have to back pay from the day you were hired. they meant after you were harrassed and black balled. You were also on probation for a year and could be fired without being given a reason. They could just not like you. They basically strong arm and extort you into joining. Trust me when I say. If you do not join. You are frowned up on very badly and the union will publish your name through the entire dept. so everyone knows who you are. Often.   That is wrong

The union with fire rescue sucked. As someone said the union is Democratic with Republican members and what pisses me iscwhen they advertise that a Democratic candidate is backed by firefighters here in Fla. No they're not. They're backed by a union.

There used to be-and still might be- a pretty good example of how unions had fucked Hostess on one of the Wikipedia pages about their bankruptcy. It was some crazy crap about how they had to have something like 2 or 3 delivery drivers per truck. One drove, one delivered, and neither could do the others job, or assist the other. If there was a third guy I don't remember what he did, "supervised" and maybe helped out the delivery guy, I guess.

Contrary to what your English Lit. professor at the University of Phoenix told you, Wiki can be as accurate as any other source.

Had you ever had the cause to read the entirety of a Wiki article, you might have noticed the blue links and the links at the bottom of the page, citing the source for the information in the article.
