Most of the jobs at stake could be done easily by idiots. I don't begrudge
their contract, but greed is the bottom line.....that and Teamster control of
the retirement funds. (see organized crime).
Part timers are being hired because of government regs that increased bogus
entitlements. In France, NOBODY, hires a Frenchman if they can avoid
it....it costs too much.
So they make BILLIONS.....how much money did YOU invest in equipment, etc. ?
None, huh?
The Teamsters are the WORST of the unions (who only represent 10% of the work
force, by the bye)
If yopu don't want your job....quit!
Somebody will take it. (and ship my parts)
