If you want non-unionized servers, hire illegal workers.

oh yeah unions suck... yeah... I like evil bosses instead... I like SLAVERY yeah that's what I like.

Companies that screw their employees suck too. IMO, that's more of a problem than unions, with our real wages declining, while the rich get richer.

let's bring back slavery too!!! serfs and indentured servants too! yo Mike, this post was most uncool. people go on strike as a last resort not because to screw your weekend. t…

the worst thing happening could possibly be this: proletarians kacing solidarity toward their fellow proletarian workers.

What's uncool is that you give me sh*t for this post before doing any research on the strike itself. Mike

Unions played a pivotal role in the worker's rights legislation we benefit from today. They became victims of their own success, it seems. Perhaps in the future there may be anoth…

i think in this case � employees working without a contract � is moderately shitty. they can get fired anytime if the casinos hire another company to provide service. possibly a co…

i work in a unionized workplace....and i have even spent 3 years on the union executive. i have mixed feelings about it....the union *can* do some good but too often they have un…

During the foundation of Unions they had a very valid place in society. They got rid of child labor, brought on the 40 hour work week, and made the work place safer. Now there ar…

my mom got one of the original ones. the first one broke. the replacement worked for a while (i think until it was out of warranty) and then started making an electrical zapping no…

Mine works pretty well. It seems to pick up a lot of dust!

I bought one about a year ago from the sharper image outlet store online. I think it was about $140. I think its works moderately well. It certainly picks up a lot of dust. The…
