Can no one not answer my question? Is anyone checking?

I have heard of non-union guys who have billions (Bill Gates). HA....wassesname said:all the union guys i know have indoor plumbing.
NOT in our business. doing the same type of work we do.bamaboy said:I have heard of non-union guys who have billions (Bill Gates). HA....
That is correct. Maybe I'm old fashion, but I don't make the same as a lot of people, but I make more than a lot of people. I have to look at the type of job that I do. Don't think I want to have a doctor who makes the same amount of $ as me operating on my brain. And I don't want the pizza delivery guy driving 18 wheels down the road next to me...woodnnn said:NOT in our business. doing the same type of work we do.

Someone enlighten me.:watsup:wassesname said:bb... what terminal does he pull out of? thats not the guy with all the lights on his dash is it? have you told him about these boards? I bet you two guys have a lot in common.

If you really want to make a difference get your card in so you WILL have a say in the contract we as a group Neg. Like it or not that is the facts. We do not have to have anymore cards signed we are there allready, what we want is more oppinions and ideas to make sure we will get a contract we ALL are very proud of.
Funny, I didn't realize Bill Gates was a truck driver. Or maybe you are talking about a different Bill Gates. I have heard of plenty of nonunion billionaires and millionaires, but none that are truck drivers.bamaboy said:I have heard of non-union guys who have billions (Bill Gates). HA....
Does anybody on here understand the point bamaboy is trying to make here, because I can't for the life of me figure it out. I don't understand what brain surgeons and pizza delivery guys have to do with union/non-union truck drivers.bamaboy said:That is correct.
