fuck unions, they're shit

@Saul my union gives us yearly raised

raises

i get a yearly raise i negotiate and it's beyond what your union can probably get you

none of you actually know the definition of socialism?

and i just got a 4 thousand dollar check for vacation after 5 months but okay

it depends on the union and how the union organises, surely?

your boss knows whats best

if i don't like it, my skills are valuable and i can sell them elsewhere

@Saul a dollar raise on pay, 2 on pension and 1 on vacation every year

i own shares and index shares as well so

I mean I'd hope he is my boss...

@Saul have fun

@BabaBooey did you see im a utopian socialist of a sorts

Straight from page 33-34 of the communist manifesto I see 😉

@BabaBooey <:sadgon:544640228166598657> He doesn't have any boots for me to lick.

@BabaBooey ok their jimmy hoffa don’t be surprised when the mafia opportunists worm their way in and shoot ya as soon as you lay the bed rock for them

@BabaBooey i get double that on pay, pension is regulated by government and goes up with inflation & we get a flat £1000 a year bonus in november and holiday pay is your base pay regardless..it doesn't have a seperate rate

not only that but overtime is paid time and a half, i earn Lieu days & get double pay when i do more than 16 hours over time in 12 weeks.

i work in the offshore industry in a company that is rapidly expanding

Marx is the diagnosis, Lenin is the the prescription

And Stalin is the reality that comes out of it

@ubermensch okay ill keep working to strengthen my union and keep making fat stacks meanwhile

Go figure

The diagnosis? so, you are being oppressed by your employer?

@BabaBooey, fat stacks? Incorrect. You'd have a wealthy few, with an unemployed horde. That's what happens whenever you disrupt labor market equilibrium, and you disrupt wage-growth, along with causing firms to operate at revenue losses, until they eventually have no choice but to close their doors. Unions, in the U.S., are responsible for about $4 trillion in annual dead weight loss; they are the destruction of said fat stacks, you fucking idiot.

@BabaBooey i earn fat stacks with share dealing

@Joshyyy duh

oy vey gevalt

communists...

how?

can't we just bring back slavery

@BabaBooey oh boy now your all for mafia style pressure to keep people in line for the sake of lining your pockets

Genius

@Saul alone you beg, together you bargain
