After all the lies and dishonesty from the big corporations why should the union members believe any thing these crooks say. I don't understand why people think its ok for a company to make gross profits but if the folks who actually do the work ask for few bucks more its some kind of a crime against society.


Sooooo,... you're saying that "if" companies are making (gross) profits, then union workers are entitled to demand (more) gross wages? LOL

Who (in the various unions) decides when a company's "profits" meets the definition of "gross profits"?

Do union workers think their wages should (in reality) be based upon a company's profits,... and are their "union demands" based upon a percentage of a company's profits?

Every union worker I've ever talked to, always whined like a little kid and seemed to hate the company he works for.

I always ask them,... "if you hate who you're working for so much, why don't you just up and quit, and get a different/better job somewhere else?" (the usual response is a blank stare)

I've never heard of a company holding a gun to the heads of their employees, and forceing them to work for them if the employees would rather be working somewhere else.

Next thing we'll know,... union workers will be refering to themselves as "poor, down trodden, and repressed company slaves". LOL

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point ... [Read Article]
