@geoffreykeating8172 Like the greedy corporate unions?

@geoffreykeating8172 Are you talking about the increase in groceries that the Liberal/NDP coalition created? Guess what? At the end of the day, unions are greedy corporations! What's it like living with blinders one and being forced into a direction you're told to go? Never mind, I forgot it took brains to rationalize such things!

@geoffreykeating8172 You work 24 hours a day do you? Sounds like a hard feat because normal people need sleep. Shareholders and managers also have the stress of wondering if the babies are going to do something to sabotage the company if they can't get their own way. The typical unionized job is usually only an 8 hour day with huge overtime if they work extra. Hard life the babies have. 😆

@geoffreykeating8172 You're only done talking because you're unable to win an argument and you know it. FORTY hours per week is hardly oppressed, or do you still think you are because you'd rather sit at home and be paid for doing nothing. I'm done talking to lazy and spiteful babies who have hissy fits because they don't earn as much as the person who actually owns the company. Buh-bye

@geoffreykeating8172 Forty hours/week is anything but oppressed, and somehow you can't figure out why people are done with unions. They're full of babies that are unable to see how good they actually have it. What about the owners who have hundreds of millions tied up into a company that lose massive sleep wondering what the babies are going to do to sabotage their business? I know you're the one who has it hard though! Poor thing!

@jonfox4022 So you mean to tell me that unionized workers don't have it as bad as this other clown claims?

@geoffreykeating8172 I like how John deleted his comment to me explaining how bad he has it as a union worker where he had to work a 56 hour week but made $35/hr doing so. I guess he realized he was only proving my point so he deleted it. Guess what Geoffrey? I'm not stupid enough to think that he had to work those 56 hours because I know about a little thing called labour laws. Depending on his contract but I'm guessing 8 to 16 of those hours was 100% voluntary. The poor guy had to miss his kid's 6th birthday celebration because he volunteered for extra hours at work. The poor victim!

@jonfox4022 Your original comment to me is no longer there so someone did in fact delete it. Secondly, if you worked more than what the labour law allows then you did in fact volunteer. I haven't had a reason to look it up for a long time but at one time it was only 44 hours that an employer could make you work. That's probably changed since the early 2000's but there's no way they can make you work 56 hrs/week. If they put you on the schedule for excessive hours then you have the right to file a complaint with the labour board. If you choose not to complain then you are in fact volunteering

@jonfox4022 Okay, I can understand why the hours for railroad workers who actively work on the train wouldn't fall into the same requirements as the labour board. That makes complete sense because it would be impossible for the railroad to schedule you back to a location so you can get in your car and drive home. I never considered that at first, but what do you expect from your employer then? It might be shitty of me to say but that's the nature of the job, and you signed up for that when you went to work there. That's like police officers suddenly not wanting to work nights anymore and striking to get their way.
