[QUOTE="HarryWarden, post: 5640193, member: 100171"] Lot of projection in this comment. So you think Sean is fighting for higher part time wages to hurt the union? You think Hoffa had the right idea and O’Brien is trying to hurt the union by raising wages? Please explain your math for me one more time. You think higher turnover of initiation fees does more compared to long term higher wage union dues MONTHLY? And I’m the stupid one? LOL So please explain to me how in 1980 the starting wage for a loader at ups was $8.50 an hour, equivalent to $25 an hour after inflation today, and 30 years later it was the exact same wage? How could they afford to do it back then but can’t now? Awfully strange how workers wage have nearly stagnated, while corporate shareholder pay has sky rocketed. Highest paid employee used to get 10x more than the lowest paid in the 1950s, now it’s 500x. [/QUOTE]
