trucker40 I will try to answer several questions here so do not think this is all on you. I have a union card in my desk draw. Local 406 Operating Engineers. Yes I keep the dues up because I have a pension coming from them. But I no longer work union. It got to be you had to be a friend rather than a good worker to get the best jobs. I now work for a non union company that our wages are controlled by the union companies to try and keep in line and find good employees. This union is the teamsters.
I am not against unions because I know my pay and benefits; even at my non union company is controlled by union shops.
I just think this new law; if it goes into effect will hurt rather than help. It will allow unions to come in the back door and get 50% cards signed and take over. No chance for the employer to give his side of the story; no discussions what so ever. If this law was good then tell me why is the unions lobbying so hard to get it past. What is wrong with our present way of voting in a union.
Right now the way it works is 50% sign a card. Several weeks pass while the employer talks it over with employees. He may give them a raise to keep the union out. He may tell them the shop will close if the union is voted in. At least he gets to say his side of the story. Then a vote is taken and both sides go with the vote. There is nothing stopping any shop from going union right now with present laws in place.
So why is the unions pushing so hard to shorten the process???????????????

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
