[QUOTE="Rain Shield, post: 1720590, member: 52948"] Mine was when Ron Carey was on the news and said we were going on strike at midnight. I come from a conservative family. My dad was in management in his company. I am still conservative to this day. I remember being young, dumb, and scared. My dad told me to man up and get my butt down to that picket line. He said I signed up for it, and I had to go over that hill as if I was in the military. After a week, we were at a family gathering. I had to leave early to go to the picket line. Another family member, who used to be in management at Eastern Airlines, said we should all be fired. I guess he was not management material, because he did not know law. Anyway, my dad chimed in and took upnfor me. Be told this jerk of an extended family member that we all would not have 40 hour work weeks, child labor laws, paid vacations, and Holidays if Unions had not fought for them first. I always respected my dad, but those 2 weeks he supported me in an endeavour that he did not 100% agree with, but backed his son, and pushed me to do what was right. [/QUOTE]
