Building Management at the Chanin Building decided, once again, to go with non-Union labor for some small projects. The last few days I've had to pass the 12 foot tall inflatable rat. This morning was a special treat, 10 men were chanting and blowing whistles and playing loud music supporting the Union and their right to protest and complain
So instead of getting out there looking for new business and impressing potential clients with the sense of duty and work ethic that you find in Union employees, the Union is PAYING people to fuck off and protest.
Is this time and money well spent? The Union is free to spend their dues however they want, that's their business. However, instead of protesting it might have been better if these 10 guys went canvassing for new clients.
