"I'm not sure how you think that employees having the same right as corps to get all they can is socialist TK. Why don't you volunteer a pay cut where you work? Take one for the gipper."

Stlhd. I get paid after I complete the work and then only if it is successful. Up until that point I am working on my own dime. Why don't you with out a net if you think your work is so valuable?

Labor unions served a purpose once and now that purpose is long gone. I worked for a construction company one summer while I was in college. The going rate in 1978 for unskilled contstructuion labor was about $3.50 an hour. This shop paid me $10 and hour because of the union. I could not come in before 8 am. At 8 I could load the truck and head to the job site. By the time I got to the jobsite it was time for the first 15 minute break. By union rules I could not skip the break and work. After the break I would work for 1 hour and 45 minutes and then it was time for lunch. After lunch I would work for 1 hour and 45 minutes then it was time for the afternoon 15 minute break. Then it was time to load up the turck and go back to the shop. Unload the truck and punch out no later than 5:00 PM. The shop stewrad and the union rep where after me daily to join the union. I had 90 days to join or quit. I knew I was headed back to school so I just rode it out. This company is no longer in business. Wonder why?
