I’d love to see the people who post here, their reactions if the company they worked for decided to open up for bid their position in the company.

Have you read the company’s proposal; do you know exactly what the company’s new demands are? Remember … someone will always work for less.

That happens to me every single month of my life.

Many people work in jobs that are exactly like that. This has been the case for many decades.

I'm not quite sure what my reaction would be, but I'm pretty sure it would not be to fling poo at them.

Welcome to the free market. When the company can find someone to replace me at a cheaper rate and swallow what it will cost to do so, they’re welcome to do it. I’ll find someone else to whom I can provide greater value.

That’s called efficient allocation of labor in economy, and is what I believe in. Not in “I’m entitled to my job”.

Yeah, and someone will always sell you stuff for less if the other guy wants too much for it. It’s great how markets work in the real world, where greedy unionistas don’t think of their job as a lifetime entitlement.

I might not be happy, but I wouldn’t be spreading nails on driveways, cutting services to 911 call centers, or pooping on company property over it, I’ll tell you that much.

Most of us must prove ourselves on a daily basis without living in your Workers Paradise. It's called the free market, deal with it you pinko.

Happiness is a union being decertified.
