Did your union ever demand something and tell the company if they didn't get it, they'd strike? You know, did they use intimidation? Probably not. You were a member of the puss union. |

Yours truly handled the 'strike pay' I have a hammed-up picture somewhere of the female vice president on her knees begging for money while I play scrooge, with wads of $20 bills falling out of every pocket I had. Life on the actual line got tedius after 3 weeks...and of course it was winter. |
