A strike by the OCAW is a coercive act at the behest of the democraps.

A friend told me the other day that a qualified new hire machinist at the Exxon refinery in Louisiana starts at $100K, vested in three years and is “guaranteed” to have $1MM in retirement savings in 8 years. These guys often get all the overtime they can stomach as well. Why strike?

I guess you would have to find out the difference between “qualified” and employed. With a Union contract, you really don’t have to be qualified.

But someone who knows what they are doing will always find a job.

I wonder if the vote to strike was rigged.
