Democrat's Apathy For Unions Is Suicide

194. ....... my 15 minute lunch breaks... really ?

Move past you pre-conceived notions based on your level of success. My 401? yeah its been incredible, better than anytime my whole life, but if you understood what incentives there are, for closing early on the kinds of projects we contract, I'm not sure you could sleep. I'm not paid what I am, to risk having someone else finish my project. If that was a risk, I would not be doing what I do, someone else would be doing it, that's how it works.

That group of "yeah they don't get it, and they'll get theirs" are a dime a dozen, ......the halls are FULL of them....aren't they? The carpenters union is not what it used to be, union training is a fucking bad joke in today's world, it isn't a shade of what it used to be.Why do you think trade union membership is tanking to near irrelevant levels? I've worked projects with union "carpenters", know what they are good at ? making damn sure they don't fart one second longer than mandated, minimal effort, maximum finger pointing, a very clear grasp of break time, and a severe lack of desire to do anything but the absolute minimum required to satisfy being called a "carpenter". They have no commitment to the company, they more or less rent a position, and are given another one when one runs it's course. Except when it comes to complaining, then union carpenters, they shine like the sun. Framers are not carpenters, and the union can barely produce framers anymore.

"Jim Bob Remodeling & Construction" is not what we do. My guys are on the same page as me, because they know I came from where they are, I give them my full confidence, because I HAVE full confidence that when I, LOL LOL stop chasing my carrot, my office will belong to one of them. I don't want anyone representing us, that doesn't have the desire to have more than they do, we don't........ supply "workers" on a job site, we orchestrate project success, and that takes strong willed, desire filled, demanding teamwork, not the "were is my guaranteed pension" clock watchers.
Good luck,..... they still have new pool tables at the hall ?
