Labor Relations Gifts

'The grievance committee never comes to me with anything other than complaints.'

'Well, if you consider normal corporate surveillance, interrogation, and harassment 'union-busting,', nothing I have to say will change your mind.'

"He's non union. He works days as a hunter, and nights as a gatherer."

'I think you're being overly pessimistic about how your grievance will turn out.'

"A tea-break every four hours, a rest-room with TV and air-conditioning throughout the meeting, otherwise no agreement."

'Another setback - the mediators just went out on strike.'

Transparency and big business.

'Management and labor working in tandem.'

"All I said was we completely agree with all of your proposals."

'Hell, I was hoping we could avoid binding arbitration.'

"If the men go on strike, we'll run the plant ourselves. Somewhere find out where it is."

'No raise and no overtime! What do you think this is, a union shop?'

Your a steady worker. In fact you're motionless.

'We've spent millions keeping the union out, but the joke is, unions would be good for us!'

'It's like working a non-union job. You run around in circles and never get anywhere.'

'I need more vacation!'

"The union is objecting to our 'grotesquely inflated' wages, do you think they'd settle for 'outrageously inflated' instead?"

'We've decided to call off our go-slow.'

'What makes you think management is trying to manipulate our union rep?'

'And finally, on these wage demands I give no quarter; a dime is my last offer.'

'It's a shut-and-open case.'

With these new Harper postmen, no more collective bargaining woes, boss!

I hope we don't settle until after the hockey finals.

'The last walk-out was very painful for me. I suffered a fractured bonus.'

"Keep your money, sir. I'm on strike!"

"Add that union workers need not apply."

"But apart from the crushing workloads, lack of support, crippling levels of unnecessary admin and terrible pay what is making you consider strike action?"

"What the labor-relations board doesn't know won't hurt it."

"And tonight we’re offering 5-1 odds on a kitchen strike."
