Union Leader Gifts

Individuals can and do make a difference, but it takes teamwork to really mess things up.

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

"Of course in those days there was no problems with unions."

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

"We had the union meeting here because I felt this was the most appropriate place to present management's contract offer."

'Job Killer!'

'Corporations Sitting on a Mountain of Cash, and they're not Hiring!'

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

'Holiday's over! Everyone back to work!'

'Teacher layoffs adverted.'

"In our states you have the right to work...for less!"

"Once upon a time and a half..."

Throwing away the right to work and collective bargaining.

"I hear the workers hate your guts Batson. Keep it up."

"Where do you want the new guy to start?"

Jimmy Hoffa in hell.

'How can this be happening!?!'

Strike, Strike, Strike, You're Out.

"Employees bound to their employer by desperation and fear of unemployment. Now THAT'S my idea of a union!"

"It's Spanish for 'duh'!"

'Management says we've had it too good for too long. They're demanding concessions.'

"Unbelievable!! I allow you to sit warm and dry in company 12 hours a day, I allow you to use my office tools and you've got the impudence to ask for a salary??!"
