Indeed unions can be a good thing, but lately ive come to think that they need to be broken or at least take a step back. For example: does anybody know how much auto workers were geting paid ? And now im supposed to feel sorry for them..not likely.
Im a tradesman in the valley here and i am not union. The fact that im not union doesnt mean that i dont get really good pay or benefits. In fact I get better pay than some guys who have 5-10 years over me , and its because my work ethic is better than thieres. Im sure unions can be a good thing but not when they back up lazy spineless whiners. Maby there would be more production and no need for us contractors. At the same time im not saying all the workers are bad at all, i know alot of them that are great contributers to thier employers.
As for the EI and welfare cruisers, It really does bother me that so many of them are waiting till the last minuite to find a job. Ei only lasts so long, this being said Ei should really be a last resort and soo many people are just jumping on the EI train to hopefully ride out this dryspell. Myself personally i would work 2 crappy jobs if i had to , to avoid Ei as long as i could.With all of this train riding going on it make me kind of worried for the time if i cant find any work at all weather it be my trade or what ever else i can do or even 2 crappy jobs . Will all of the money ive been contributing from my pay take weeks or months to get to me because of an overflow of easyriders?
