re: #64 Locker

No idea why everyone hates Unions and uses them as scape goats for every problem under the sun. I hate to tell you this but as a state worker I’ve been denied my cost of living increase for 11 years in a row, we’ve had our benefits cut, furloughed for almost 2 years and are currently fighting off a 10 percent pay cut.

All this while outsourced projects failed left and right wasting millions of tax payer dollars on jobs that state workers could do themselves. Personally as a regular middle class guy I am extremely thankful that SEIU 1000 is out there fighting to at least stem the tide.

Every single time we sign a contract we have to give up something else. I don’t know where you people get your ideas about Unions but ours is focused on one thing, protecting our jobs.

well not to be snarky but it sounds like you should get a refund on your dues…
