[QUOTE="area43, post: 243312, member: 4862"] Least we never forget. We work for a Unionized Company. I was in the Strike of 97. I believe the last time we struck was 20 years ago in 76 or 77. I was not working at UPS at the time. We become complacent, that it(strike) wont happen to a certian degree. That was the mindset of most in 1997. People were caught with their pants down so to speak. Remember the old Midas commercial, " Pay me now or Pay me later". LOL I guess it should be "Save now or Pay later". I said this before, saving for anything is pretty much non- existent in America. People want to gorge themselves at the economic buffet of spending. Than they want compassion. Hmmm, I drive a late model truck(96) in order to save duckies for a rainy day, but than on the other hand my fellow driver goes out and buys the latest 4 by 4 quad cab, special leather edition, fully loaded, $40,000 ride. Enjoy it, because you just might be livin in it. You know who you are. Eat, drink and screw tomorrow. The day will come when its time to pay the piper. BC fan had some great advice. This is a warning. sincerely area 43 [/QUOTE]
