Workers in unions using BLACKMAIL on their bosses and not the way they should,what about the other people they are interfering with. ungrateful c..nts
Just like tfl are using BLACKMAIL to the workers do this extra unsocial time for fuck all recompense or f*(k off.
If unions are such a bad idea why do big business have one they use to lobby and influence their friends in government and hold them and us to ransom.............. the CBI
that and the general race to the bottom..................that's what gets my goat.

When a medium sized company making millions in profit decides to give a below cost of living pay rise of 1% then unions can come in handy.......as a self employed person youd expect to up your prices as the cost of living rose because you arent a charity and it is no different to other workers......when house prices are already rising stupidly compared to wages then you need someone in your corner to claw back some pennies.........if you were fixing a boiler and someone said ok now landscape my garden and thats included in the price then you'd be pissed off too.
Plus it isnt all aout wages......unions are a support network when the shit hits the fan, injury, unfair dismissal, legal advice [size=78%]etc etc[/size]
[size=78%]Its a shame when strikes affect the public as enivitably there is a bad light cast but it is lso the managemt that have allowed this to happe but nobody seems to shout about that[/size]

Yeah but feeking train drivers strike every month for one reason or another, it has nothing to do with workers rights and them being overpaid lazy pricks.
