And why is that funny? Doing what you are told by your boss is a funny premise?? Unbelievable. Be proud of your self ltl1, in your world, you apparently can do what you want and not jump when your boss says so and expect a continuing paycheck.

No simply don't have to do the unreasonable, with out any protection. I guess you would rather go back to the days of slavery? We all have to do thing that we don't want to in life. The anti-union / pro comapny bs is getting real old. They keep forgetting what brought the union about in the first place, and insist on standing up for what caused the birth of the union in the first place. Unfair labor acts, greedy company owners, and mistretment of employees. I guess these individuals are wanting the old days back.

Safety brought the unions on. Unfair treatment of workers was NOT wages or pensions or health care contributions. Long hours, no breaks, unsafe conditions and accountability brought the unions on. Now we have OSHA, NLRB, FMCSA and a host of other guiding departments that make unions obsolete. Wrong argument to talk about why unions were created. Prove to me why they still exist? Oh wait, becasue they can make money off the backs of the employees; oops I mean brothers.

And greedy company owners? You sound greedy. They built a business, they deserve the lions share of the profit.

Talk about brainwashed... sheesh. The teamster mentality is brainwashing to believe that the teamsters only care about as long as you pay your dues. They are the company that is only interested in making money. You striking, justifies their existance. They WANT you to strike. They NEED you to strike. How about you negotiate better wages to stand on the picket line. Were the teamsters paying you mileage to follow trucks?

It's public information to look up teamster officers salary. Do your self a favor and take a look at how much the average Organizer, or BA makes. Compared to what you make... Who's overpaid? who is there convincing you to walk out and not get paid? Your BA is still making his or her income while you suffer.

Then will you go away for good????

These comments appear to portray the Union as God himself. You people are some sad poorly led individuals if you think slavery is gone because of organized crime. God help us all! Think about what you just said. Also, please advise where you were educated so I can make sure my decendents avoid it. And by the way, the anti company bs is real old. Go get a job if you can people.

Technically speaking. It is a failure of management to respond to the needs of its workers that is the issue here. Maybe if the little boys would have learned something from their daddy before putting on their Big Boy Pants, this situation would not have developed.
