The local boat show starts at noon today and runs through
Sunday. Newspaper says admission fee has jumped to $

It should be free.

It should be free but many of these shows are run by large
exhibition companies employing union labor at exorbitant
rates. Traffic control, ticket sales, security, etc. are
all union controlled.

I have attended shows where you would have to literally pay
a union electrician $50 to plug in your extension cord.
Plug it in yourself and you would be charged the same $50.
Simple forklift delivery of your booth materials cost
hundreds. Even worse, they would put their hand out looking
for a tip while they are on the clock. Pretty sad.

Poor Dan. He had to pay a contractor who paid his workers a
decent wage with benefits.

What do *you* do that's worth $50?

Dan speaks the truth Harry. That is the way it goes at the
International Exposition Center in Cleveland. I am sure other
unionized convention centers are the same

So?

You go to a prime convention center, you want work done, you
deal with the contractors with whom the convention center has
contracted. That's how it is in the real world.

He's not talking about "wanting work done". He's talking about
getting charged $50 for plugging in your own extension cord.



Yes, well, the convention center management sets the rules.


The rules are dictated to them by the union.


Yeah, right...a kid dentist living in Naples, Florida, knows how
the "system" works.


So where do the unions send their campaign contributions and who
owns the convention centers?

Dictated might not be the correct word, but the result it the same.



Got any documentation aside from your demonstrated hatred of workers'
rights?



Worker's rights? If they work, they get paid. If they don't, they
get fired. If they can get a better job, they do. What other rights
do they have or need in a democracy?





Hahahahohohohehehe

Back to the middle ages we go.


Funny? How?
