NEUROTICA by Allison Garwood for July 05, 2010

happy 7/5 !

This is why Republicans hate unions, unions make them less able to treat people like easily disposable office supplies.

You got that right, C. A. Brobst!!

Affected, not effected.

Thanks, Govi, you beat me to it.

EXCUSE ME! I am a republican, and I love unions!

In fact, I was a member of the IBEW for quite awhile. I tried to maintain my membership after moving on to other jobs not covered by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, but received a strike notice to walk the line while in the army and subsequently lost my membership. I still have my union card among my keepsakes.

If it weren’t for unions, we would not have an 8 hour day, or a 5 day work week, or decent benefits, or - boy, where do I stop?

Now unions have their problems too, especially with the occasional resort to thuggery, and you know what I am talking about here.

But, the positives of unions far outweigh their negatives, and they are a necessary part of the American fabric.

And I would be arrested for murder if that were me, but a jury would find me innocent by justifiable homicide!

As a Republican, are you at all concerned that the RNC is, for the most part, (h e l l for the whole part) completely hostile to unions?

As for Petunia’s boss, he has her running scared and much less likely to complain about the crappy way she is treated.

my union was not happy that we would get pay cuts they negotiated we all got fired
