>>>My good friend is an electrician. He takes great pride in it, works very hard, and buys himself nice tools to use. He recently joined the union and he is unable to use his nice new tools because not everybody has them and it is deemed unfair if he does. If he is caught using them, we can get a really stiff fine. What a crock.

>>And I will tell you a situation I came across with unions recently. I have a customer, hospital. The woman who was administrative assistant in the department was absolutely super: all data entry was always accurate and done in timely manner. Then one day (about 2 months ago) she sends me email and says that she is being laid off. In place of her they put a woman that was moved from another department, never done the work before, and I am not sure if she is good at this work. But they explained to me that the seniority is all that matters, not who does a better job.

>Ding ding ding. Unions are a prime example of what's wrong with this country.
