[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1397282, member: 4362"] I have had little experience with union people so my understanding is limited. However, several years ago the BIL of a friend was complaining about how his company was downsizing and moving to Mexico. He said he was reduced to working only three days a week and he couldn't support his family on this so I offered him a job during his off days. The work was hard manual labor in some rough conditions but the pay was what I thought exceptional so I was doing it six days a week so it wasn't like I was asking him to do something that I wouldn't do myself. He lasted three days even though he made more than he would have had he worked all week at his factory job. The work was beneath him I guess. My SIL was union. She made good money but was constantly complaining about how she wasn't paid enough and how they were going to strike about this or that. Her company moved to Germany and now she only speaks of how good she had it. I've learned that good money doesn't insure good help but good help deserves good money if you intend to keep them.
