I think paying an ADM is silly, however I’m not mad at you if you did. The real problem is the dealers are the only ones with access to inventory from the manufacturer. They can basically hold this inventory hostage for an ADM and the rest of us are basically forced to deal with it. It’s...

what does USOB stand for?

Just got my tear tag. Used Ford chat and get an estimated delivery date of 9/23. I’m in NJ. Order flipped to confirmed as well.

How do you contact ford chat?

Mine says built but I didn’t get an email and I don’t have a tear tag number. What’s that mean?

I know what he means, I’m 4th generation in a building trade union. Still, what he thinks is an at will employee is not an at will employee.

I don’t think you understand what at will employment means. You cannot be an at will employee, and have a labor contract. Union stewards are your protection. You may be in a poorly run local where they don’t actually attempt to protect the members from unfair labor practices, but I promise you...

No need to apologize. It’s not the easiest PR job, and it never will be. You have billion dollar companies spending millions and millions of dollars for decades to manipulate people’s perceptions of unions with union busting firms and lobbyists etc. it’s no surprise people vote against their own...

That’s not an at will employee. An at will employee can be laid off for any reason at any time. You have a labor contract that provides union representation in the case of any dispute with your employer. Let’s say the company says you’re going to do you job for $5 less an hour out of the blue...

What union is this? Having a labor contract is the opposite of at will employment.

A lot of large venues are like that. Who is this “union leadership”? Do you think there’s one person or group of people that rule all unions? You speak in ridiculously sweeping generalizations and there has been far more illegal, corrupt activity by businesses than there will ever be by unions...

Yes, this probably happened. You’re welcome.

Your issue is with OSHA. With all due respect I don’t think you understand how any of this works.

Ok, but who’s fault is that. I’ll say it again. If the non union guys scaffold was compliant there would have been no issue. I get that you don’t like the union guys behavior, but if the company had the right equipment there would have been nothing he could do. It’s their fault. Being a small...

Certainly not. I believe some other examples in this thread wholeheartedly and I’m the last guy to tell you unions can do no wrong. However, the bucket of paint guy is a liar.

I guess I don’t understand what the issue is. If the company wasn’t using non compliant scaffold, there would be nothing to tell osha about, no?

Tactics like what? Did the union members swap their scaffold to not compliant stuff in the middle of the night? Sounds like your BIL’s company did it to themselves.

Sure, probably because they were there for a reason. Every trade thinks they are the most important one in whatever area they are in. Sure, some dumb shit happens from time to time. But anybody that tells you they had to put in a written request and wait for hours to get a bucket of paint moved...
