RE: i'm curious who you think these "real" workers are. ------
A real worker is someone who REALLY works. A real worker is someone that employers (me) hire and they can make money with. A real worker is someone that customers (the rest of you) are satisfied with and served by. A NON real worker is a union worker. I grew up (18-28) in a steel mill. I was a union officer there and I know the game well. Our claim to fame was that we had more "fat people" (people who didn't work) in our area than any other place. One "fat" guy took six thirty minute trips to the can every day. Another took a piece of paper out of his drawer everytime the boss looked at him and threw it out when the boss looked away. That is not a real worker. A real worker gets things done. It doesn't matter how much he/she is paid. What counts is what happens between their arrival and their departure. People who get things done, people who want to work, people who want the company they they work for to make money will get ahead. Cream rises to the top. Regarding the observation that unions determine our standard of living, this is true. The non union states have more job growth. This why we live in the Rust Belt. One final note to those of you who cheered the exit of this employer while you cashed your steady paychecks... What do you compassionate inclusive and diverse people say to the people that your approval, tacit and written, helped put out of work?
