[QUOTE="CleverNameHere, post: 2034309, member: 51604"] Point taken; did anything I personally advocated for help us as Teamsters get our current, second-to-none rights as workers? No. Forgive my insinuating such as I didn't mean to. I meant more, that in the past people would stand their ground for, admittedly, MUCH bigger rights and issues than we currently face. That attitude, in my humble opinion, seems to be lacking. At least among the BC crowd. Seems a lot of people are more than happy being told how to live and breathe, to eat excrement day in and day out. Fine I'll tone it down a bit: I think the facial hair ban is ridiculously old fashioned, and stupid. Customers don't care that their equally hard working Postal carriers are unshaven (I won't start on fed ex we can all agree there) Entitled...
