5th MEB ~
I was also at one time SEIU [32B] in NYC & they took my money for nothing, for almost five years.
I got canned for being the only Irish American who could not bribe, nor speak in Español, whilst being surrounded by Dominicans and Puerto Ricans...
Racist, corrupt, turds. (IMO)
.
SEIU is the American KGB.

I drove a yellow cab in NYC and had to buy a “union ticket” for $3 on every shift.
God only knows what it is now.
There was absolutely no way to qualify for any union benefits either unless you worked a ridiculous number of hours a month.
Looks like capitalism has put a stake through their heart though

‘There’s no future for taxis’: New York yellow cab drivers drowning in debt
Ride-hail services like Uber and Lyft have saturated the market, and an exodus of drivers from cabs has made medallion values drop leaving many owing money
I didn’t get canned, I quit.
After listening to about 4,000 delegates at that meeting tell me how great JIMMUH CARTER was, I felt like projectile vomiting.
I guess the fact that I had the ONLY WHITE FACE in the whole auditorium might have factored into the threats, jeers, and catcalls I got after making my (conservative) political statement in rebuttal to all their socialist crap.
