Can't help myself (and now that it's in the Lounge): Dwight, you're full of sh!t. You obviously are part of the problem with your simplistic thinking that the corporation has no overhead over the damn plant you worked at. They have to pay for the non-working union folks that have caused the downfall of so many industries in this country. Your beloved union is still trying to hold on to the full-pay layoff provision that was supposed to be deleted as part of the bailout. [Just engaging in some fun discussion...see this:
]
No we're not all in this together...you union folks and your fellow travelers (that's a commie term BTW), the environmentalists and other brain-dead rainbow coalition maggots [note:
], caused this crap and now our children will have to pay for it.
BTW, I teach labor and employment at the university level. The things you think the unions brought are not all good, and most certainly were not brought in by unions...and I go back to the 1600s in my history.
