Unions once again throw their members under the bus

[thereisnospoon]

Unions representing Hostess Bakery workers were warned bu the company that a job action would result in the company shutting down and seeking to liquidate assets.
The unions refused to budge and decided the company owners were bluffing. Today, 18,500 workers lost their jobs and an American Icon was put out of business by greedy union bosses.

Yes it certainly was.

This is the very same union we have at our company!!!! and they are WORTHLESS!

What's really weird to me is..that we're with the Grainmiller's union, yet we have nothing to do with food. Our company makes silicone hoses for cars, trucks, Boeing, some medical. Lol! Anyway....like i said, they are WORTHLESS!

Too late. You lost the choice for better product due to unions.

 

[thereisnospoon]

Yeah..it was the Unions.

Correct. All they had to do is accept the reality of the situation and go back to work.
The union said stay the course. Are the union bosses out of a job? Oh HELL NO.
BTW, the unions also fucked over all the employees that were NOT members of the collectives.
Of course they don't care about THOSE people.

That's alright. The Flight Attendants at US Airways are represented by a union of unrelated work.
Happens all the time. It's kind of amusing.

 

[Immanuel]

Now you are catching on.

Dear Union slobs: The company is officially dead. And now, instead of getting paid anything, you get a pink slip. All because you got greedy. So tell me...was it worth it?

 

[Political Junky]

Yeah..it was the Unions.

Yes it certainly was.

Up till Reagan the economy prospered greatly with lots more union members.

 

[Stephanie]

But the FAT CATS like the commie Trumka are still sitting pretty..

Umm. Union membership peaked at around 30% of the US workforce. In the 1970's the decline of union membership was well underway.
Try again.

The better product is still available. The lousy one is gone. (Hostess pies are way too sweet.)

I recall one of the casinos in Connecticut is represented by, of all people, the UAW.

Well, the casinos do take everyone for a ride.

That is why you have them with a glass of milk.

Not if you manage your money properly. When I go gambling, I NEVER lose. I may not turn a profit. But I never get skunked either. It's all about money management.
For example, if you have $300 you don't go to a $25 black jack table. You'll get killed.
Start with $300. Lost the first two hands. You are down to $250. That means the next hand you are risking 10% of your bankroll.
If you lose 10 out of 15 hands you are down to $175. That's a sure way to get "taken for a ride"....

Not workable...they are so sweet they actually make me retch. Why would I subject mnyself to that when there are BETTER products (Little Debbie, JJ's) for HALF the price or less?!
