Your job

[OAS]

The point you made Polly about representation is the unions big smoke and mirrors game. They convince their memborship that they are doing something that you would'nt get if they weren't there. Unions have done many good things in the past and they had there place in history. Corpse's point is very valid. For his profession and his needs, the union will give him what he needs. Outside of strong union areas of the country, other reputible employers will give people the same thing. If your in and industry the unions control, you have to join the union. If you can't deal with that, work in Colorado or Arizona where laws prohibit unions from having closed shops. There is nothing wrong with blue collar or white collar. It's whatever floats your boat. Always remember though, regardless of what collar you wear, the greed of exectuive management will dictate whether or not you have a job. Just ask all those white collars at Enron who now have ring around the collar because they have no jobs to pay for dry cleaning anymore.
