Labor Rights Gifts

'Will work for union scale.'

'Just some ancient artifacts.'

The relationship between you and your employer is not one of equals....Being in a union fixes the imbalance!

Balance

"It's not a bad place to work, aside from the totally oppressive confidentiality agreement they make us sign."

"You were 3 minutes late for work today, Jennings. Bruno here, my office manager, doesn't like it when employees are late for work."

"Sir, the robots have gained sentience and are demanding better working conditions."

"....and don't forget to ask for more overtime."

'I've just been laid off. Is it too late to sign that union card you were telling me about?'

'I don't necessarily agree with the pilots' strike, but you gotta love their picket line.'

Week three, things started to get ugly.

'We Want Our Jobs Back'

'I wanted to go to today's anti-union rally but couldn't get the time off from work. I don't have any sick days. . .'

'I see a labor union dispute coming.'

'How come when the workers form a union, it's collective bargaining, but if we do it, it's a cartel?'

BEWARE OF THE DOG!; 'So much for management's pledge to bargain in good faith.'

"It says: 'In honor of Labour Day. I want time off and a raise in my power supply.'"

'Job Killer!'

'Now what? -- The Pharaoh says he's never heard of collective bargaining.'

'Not a problem. On what they pay us, I can't afford lunch.'

Transcendental Mediation

"Why do you always get the biggest sign?"

'When I used to harass non-union workers, they would just quit! Now, with the union, they file a grievance!'

Labor Day 2011

"No, he hasn't had a heart attack - I told him I'd joined a union."

"I'm on a zero hours contract."

'Are those magic beans?'

'I need my illegal aliens - to keep wages low and benefits non - existent!'

"A worker is a human being? Why wasn't I informed of this??"

'John, didn't your mom ever tell you if you had a scab you shouldn't picket cause it'll get infected.'

'No benefits, no time and a half. It's like we're slaves or something.'

'As I've been told by my union, I went out on strike and I will succeed - I'm a one-man company!'

Right to work legislation strangles the unions.

"I remember we used to talk in the staff room about Unions, and what the point of membership was..."

"This isn't going to help our low wage trap a bit."
