It’s a tough, nasty union.
Replacement workers better be prepared to fight their way in and out every day.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but it's hard to picture a clerical worker's union being tough. I'm just picturing a bunch of tough clerical workers with pocket protectors lining up to throw pencils and staplers at the replacement workers.

Nah, clerical workers versus ‘scabs’ would signify cat fights.

It's not the clerical unionists you need worry about.
It's their brother unionists.

I've been down this road.
