Yeah, as long as I’m restricted to working 40, I’ll never get ahead. Doctors, lawyers, businessmen, they are not afraid to work 100+. But the union boss says I can’t. Wonder why ambition is looked down upon?
The whole idea of a family having a god-given right to rule is strange in itself, but It makes sense to train persons in statecraft. The advent of all these first-time politicians is showing what a disaster occurs when amateurs are given a little power – particularly when the amateur in question is sure of having a highly paid job waiting when the term ends.
Okay Lou, now try requiring Doctors,Lawyers and Indian Chiefs to work 100 hour weeks. See how long it takes them to demand a union! (And probably none of them will have to die to get one – brave people have already done that for them!)
Meanwhile, you could always fill your spare time with a nice minimum wage no benefits non-union job –you’d probably enjoy that!

Unions gave us everything worthwhile in life.

If standing around making remarks is “work”, Vicky, I wouldn’t mind getting paid for it seven days a week.

Have no use for unions, myself. Queeny, you have to work Sunday because we LOVE you so much!
