Unions

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

Well there you go. You're a company owners dream.

I just dont see why the staff get to go on trains for free - even get paid thanks to fucking unions while the rest of us pay through the nose.

Or
2. Cunts

I think it's unfair to make us choose one. Can't we be both?

Or me, the third type, I am simply trolling mat who cant reply because his 09.42 from Cleckheaton is 4 hours late due to a hedgehog on the line.

I have been in 3.

Been pissed off with one of them, had to leave the second because I moved countries and reluctantly joined my present one because it is the only one recognised in work.

I would always say join a union and be in one even if it isn't your prefered one.

Does being married count ? if so they are shite. Paid in all my adult life - got fuck all back.

They wouldn't be shitting at work if they were busy grafting.

If it's baked in works time surely it's only fair to offload in their time too?

FFS, you'll be after soft three-ply and a 40% pay rise next - shop steward?

ex shop steward, a long time ago. A clean bog with bog roll, a lock and seat is a good starting point, bit like in a pub anything else is a bonus.

Amazingly ignorant mostly red topped tabloid led Thatcherite views expressed by all the usual suspects.

If any of you just stopped to think for one minute - in many cases union recognition is welcomed by employers - I have had experience of this myself. In large organisations things like T&C's, job losses or wages and rewards are better negotiated with a single entity - its simply not possible to set up a system which is done on an individual basis that can be done quickly and efficiently. When done individually it invariably leads to accusations of nepotism and results in a disgruntled workforce that is not productive as it could be and lots of employee churn.

In fact when I have been involved with a union the single biggest complaint from members is that the union reps are "in the pockets" of the business and don't get them the lazy well paid gig they want.
