I agree.

 

[retired&proud]

Who sez my Saturday is a day off?

Either that or you dont do anything when youre at work? Is that it, you are already a freeloader?

 

[retired&proud]

Glad you've went backwards....

I had to go backwards for a good comparison.

 

[Michigan Bill]

Gotta wait on getting unloaded, but you don't remember that, huh?

 

[Michigan Bill]

I had to go backwards for a good comparison.

Well, it is the way you like to think.....

 

[retired&proud]

No, I use that one a lot with guys that know it all, after something has already happened. Gee, it's too bad you weren't around to give everyone your sage advice last contract, huh?

You cant give advice to someone thats afraid to take risks. Havent you learned anything yet?

I took a risk, won 17k at the labor board, we won the election, still no contract. Can't squeeze blood from a turnip.

All day to get unloaded, youre rght I dont remember that. Times musts have changed.

Its steel, and I've got a few trailers. Lots of wait time. Can't rush the crane operator.

Your idea of taking a risk is holding up your trousers with just the belt instead of the usual suspenders too.

My idea of a risk was starting a union organizing drive after they hacked our insurance.

 

[retired&proud]

Well, it is the way you like to think.....

Its not that I like to, its that I have to considering who I'm arguing with.

 

[retired&proud]

My idea of a risk was starting a union organizing drive after they hacked our insurance.

Thats not a risk, thats a challenge.

 

[retired&proud]

Well, it is the way you like to think.....

What part of I had to go backwards for a good comparison dont you understand?

 

[Michigan Bill]

Thats not a risk, thats a challenge.

Must be neat, working a whole career at the last standing nmfa carrier. You're a lucky guy. Not everyone is so lucky anymore. I tried. I found out, the hard way, how little stand up most drivers have anymore. You stick your neck out, you get your head chopped off.

 

[Michigan Bill]

I was honestly thinking you have reverted to 20 years old with a pension.....

No argument from me here.

 

[retired&proud]

Now that would be nice.

 

[retired&proud]

I really want a picture now. Your argument makes as much sense as the 15 dollar an hour burger flippers. Have you noticed stomping your feet and throwing a tantrum isn't the easiest way to get what you want?

By your logic, all these new bus drivers have to do is vote no and strike and they will be on par with ups for pay and bennies. If they fall short, it must be their own fault.

Sorry, I cant draw. Stomping your feet and throwing tantrums is more your style, not mine. I just get thrown out of meetings for yelling, remember?

Its the non unions that have to try and keep up with the Jones's not the unions.

You've obviously been retired a little while then! Nonunion shops have been upping pay to keep the seats filled, meanwhile the union shops can't grasp that they are worth some coin, and settle for meager increases.


I gotta ask a 3rd time, what shop has a good contract in your opinion?
