Every ten years or so they'd have a strike, and one of their favorite activities was to get on the bridge over the river that also was over our parking lot and drop bricks on the cars below.
Lovely people.
So UAW wants Honda to close up shop, huh? A primary reason these recent manufacturing jobs are going to the South is the lack of union control here. No Civil War pun intended.
If they ever do find the need to lay someone off, I might look at her "productivity" first.
While I do sometimes think labor deserves representation, I’ve never seen it happen without the typical union thuggery. Union officials seem to be some of the lowest common denominators I’ve ever seen. They just wreak of deceit.
Once a union is in, good luck.
On top of the usual intimidation, they mis-appropriate retirement funds. They back people who stand for everything you are against politically, with your money.
It’s really too bad there isn’t a clean above board rational union presence in this nation, but there isn’t.
I discourage unionization. It’s a bad trap to fall into.
Bama ping!
Unions are to labor what OPEC is to petroleum and DeBeers is to diamonds.
after ruining gm, ford, and crysler
let them have a chance at honda.
How come a RICO lawsuit has never been filed against the UAW?
Of course they want to unionise the place. It isn't for the benefit of the employee either, because they will bring home less money after paying union dues than they did before the union foced it's way into their workspace.
Unions need to maintain their cash flow. The unionized shop always see's a reduction of staff and business closures over time, therefore they must constantly be on the lookout for more places to infiltrate.
There was a time when unions actually did some good, but that time has long passed. The new "union" of today which has replaced the union of old is called the department of labor. The nanny state government itself has become the union which puts labor standards into law.
The competition for quality employees among employers sets the wage and benefits package they recieve for their services.
Unions are now obsolete, and have transformed into a left wing marxist political body, which, like no other, gets to extract donations to it by force of law from a majority of people in the workplace who neither supports it's views nor do they want to be a member and pay these dues.
Getting rid of them from the workplace is no easy task however.
Ok, class, can anyone tell us why?
Toyota is building a big plant in Tupelo Mississippi. Another big truck plant just north of Jackson.
No union to be found of course.
Is ANYONE still foolish enough to believe Unions are for the employees?
Unions have many objectives:
- Enrich the Union thugs
- Enrich the politicians to whom they donate the employee’s money
- Extort from Employers excessive benefits that will render their product uncompetitive and CHASE THEM TO CHINA
The best thing Unions could do to benefit workers - is to stay the hell away and let individual merit and the market work its magic...
Ah, the unions. They’ll strike to have someone else hired to do their work while they still get paid. No wonder China does so well.
Sheila should move to Detroit. She’d be happy there.
