Labour Advocate Gifts

"Sometimes I wonder why we bother with unions these days..."

The International and May Day Terrorism

It's a dogs life

'You can't fire me! -- This is a right-to-work state!'

"But if you were a real boy you wouldn't be allowed to work such long hours."

'Our union contract keeps us from cutting salaries, but nothing prevents us from charging for parking.'

'It is a big day! Ten years ago, yout dad joined the union!'

Bureaucrats held up by the workers.

'Drop dead. Well that's good start to our negotiations.'

"Your employees have lost faith in your ability to pretend to care about them."

When collective bargaining is outlawed!: 'To work here, you have to wear this metal collar!'

"Then I told him, 'Unions are powerless in this country... What can you do to me?'"

"Don't tell the employees, but management has acquired their union."

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

'I told you we should have unionized.'

'In this pyramid we are unionized. We don't accept more than 50 lashes per day.'

The Trans Pacific Partnership! Negotiated in Secret! No input from labor, consumer, or environmental organizations...

The Verdict Is Union Yes!

'The problem is, you don't take enough pride in your temporary, no benefit, below living wage job!'

'Let's be fair and take a vote - how many here think we need a minimum wage increase?'

'Things are going from bad to worse in the auto industry.'

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

'In other words, we want you to get paid like our union employees.'

John Prescott

'The union card does it every time.'

"When given a choice, a lot of them prefer eternal torment over being stuck in a 9 to 5 job."

"We located our factory in your country because there is no word for leisure in your language."

'You're offering me a job, eh? -- does it have portable benefits?'

'My union prevented taking away our dental plan to pay for executive bonuses!'

"A serf? We don't call you 'serfs' anymore. Nowadas we call you flexibly employed staff members!"
