When compared to any other occupation, union construction workers demonstrate among the highest
heavy alcohol and illicit drug use.

Damn, I didn't know that. That explains a lot of the problems with our infrastructure. Maybe we
should give union workers more money.

If you ever worked union, and I have, pot smoking on the job is common
place. Union will claim they need 6 months off with pay to get better.

When a simple firing is more effective in all ways possible.

Sadly, substance abuse is far worse among non-unionized construction
workers, most of whom work on projects where employees are not subject
to random drug tests.

It has been known for many years that a substantial percentage of
construction workers abuse substances. A lot but not all of this is a
result of a need to self-medicate. Construction workers sustain a lot of
back, leg, muscular type injuries during their work years, and these
take a toll. For some workers, self-medication becomes the only avenue
for pain relief. This is not a country where an injured worker gets
adequate compensation for work-related injuries and illnesses, or even
reasonable access to retraining.

The purpose of my wife's research was not to point out that construction
workers abuse substances, but to explore the barriers they encounter to
seeking proper treatment for their abuse problems. It is one hell of a
document, and is being considered for publication in a professional journal.

Now, about your wife's educational and professional accomplishments,
flajim...Are there any?

Absolutely EVERY article submitted to any journal is considered for
publication. If I submitted this post to any journal it would be
"considered" for publication. It would be **** canned and never would
be published, but it would be considered.

Your wife gets a PhD from a 3rd rate college and you think it is
"special". Does Karen Grear know you were so ashamed of her, that you
had to make up an imaginary career for her to boast your bruised ego?
While you used to pretend she was a Medical Doctor, she was really a
social worker. Now that she has a degree from a 3rd rate college, you
have to pretend that she is an intellectual powerhouse. If your wife
was half as intelligent as you like to pretend, she would have gotten
her PhD from Georgetown. Such shame, but I guess it is better than
getting your undergrad degree from Univ. of Kansas.

What are you going to do now that we all know that your wife is
overweight, has 3 chins, is old and really would not be considered
beautiful (or even cute) by anyone?

In case you can't find the link, here is the abstract. It really isn't
impressive, but what the heck, it is a dissertation from a 3rd rate school

credit for this abstract should go to Karen Grear of Huntington, MD.
"The Impact of Perceived Self-Control Over Treatment Access, Appraisal
of the Consequences of Substance Use, Self-Reliant Attitude Against
Help-Seeking and Perception of Workplace Culture on the Behavioral
Intention to Seek Treatment for Substance Abuse Among Union Construction
Workers
Dr. Karen Grear
Social workers are familiar with the personal, familial and societal
costs of untreated substance abuse. However, more than 95 percent of
adults who suffer from substance use disorders fail to connect either
with professional treatment services or support groups such as
Alcoholics Anonymous. When compared to any other occupation, union
construction workers demonstrate among the highest heavy alcohol and
illicit drug use. In addition, they have a centuries-old organizational
culture that promotes substance abuse and discourages help-seeking.
Research indicates a variety of practical and psychological barriers
impede treatment access. Less understood is the role of individual
attitudes towards seeking help and the appraisal of the negative
consequences of substance use. The purpose of this study was to test a
conceptual model explaining behavioral intention to seek help for
substance use disorders in male union construction workers referred to a
union Member Assistance Program. The overarching theoretical framework
for this study utilized Ajzen’s theory of planned behavior, Bandura’s
social cognitive theory, and Prochaska and DiClemente’s transtheoretical
model of change. Multiple regression analyses tested the impact of the
predictor variables along three stages of the behavioral change
continuum. While the analysis demonstrated that sets of five of the
predictors had a significant impact on one or more of the stages, the
single most important finding was that appraisal of the consequences of
substance abuse had the greatest effect on each of the three stages of
change and was the only predictor of the final stage of taking steps
towards change. This study will inform social workers and others to
understand the barriers to seeking help and to develop approaches that
will enhance the capacity of union construction workers to access and
make use of services."

I have seen John, he is definitely not too thin or does he look sickly.
I guess Harry is so used to seeing morbidly obese people (he looks at
himself and his wife all the time) that his perception is distorted.

Oh? What the hell would you know about it?

There's very little unionization among residential home building
companies producing single family houses, townhouses and low rise
apartment buildings, and a low percentage of non-unionized contractors
involved in infrastructure construction, and on large commercial
projects, especially where governmental funds or guarantees are
involved. There are perfectly valid studies available that show that as
bad as substance abuse is among unionized workers, it is significantly
worse among non-unionized construction workers.

In all seriousness I'd like to see everyone knock it off. It's just
not the right thing to do.

And yes, I know, I know, I really do, so don't dredge up the past.
It's all out there and we all know where to find it.

Two wrongs does not make a right however, and some of you do know
better.



I definitely agree with this post. Family should not be mentioned - by either side. Of course, that
means all the incest and family pedophile comments should go also.

They're sick.



I've been nothing but complimentary to your wife, Herring.

Hey guys, listen up for a minute.

Do you really think it's appropriate to drag someone's wife or other
family member into the so called discussions here?


Harry was the first to do this with Scotty's daughters and wife, loogies
daughter and wife. He's deserving.

The only thing that any of us know for sure about Harry's wife is that

I agree!

You folks seriously have nothing better to do than stalk Harry and his

Knowing the source, I certainly wouldn't waste a second of my time to

Sadly, substance abuse is far worse among non-unionized construction
workers, most of whom work on projects where employees are not subject
to random drug tests.

Bull****.



Oh? What the hell would you know about it?

There's very little unionization among residential home building
companies producing single family houses, townhouses and low rise
apartment buildings, and a low percentage of non-unionized contractors
involved in infrastructure construction, and on large commercial
projects, especially where governmental funds or guarantees are
involved. There are perfectly valid studies available that show that as
bad as substance abuse is among unionized workers, it is significantly
worse among non-unionized construction workers.


More bull****. Although I'm sure the unions have 'purchased' some studies for you to reference.

Why do I doubt you'll be mentioning this next time you run into a
construction worker...

Herring, physically, looks like he could be knocked to the ground by a
passing feather. Remember those photos of thin, brittle-looking HIV
sufferers in the 1980's? Well, our boy Herring looks like one.


Just because you're such a fat, nasty smelly sort doesn't mean that
because someone is thin they frail. I'll bet he's in better physical
shape than you are.


Try following John H around a golf course, on foot, sometime. The man is
a machine.


Well, I wasn't wearing combat boots then either!

I tried walking Forest Green last week. Had to catch a ride for some of the green to tee walks. Old
age catching up.

Oh, I am 6' 3" tall, and my weight is right at 180lbs. Not sure what charts Harry is looking at. I
seem to be right on the mark:

http://www.healthchecksystems.com/heightweightchart.htm

I was supposed to play today, but this damn rain is definitely slowing down the golfing.

I've been having trouble with my drives. At the range a couple days ago, I found that choking up
helped a lot. So, I cut an inch and a half off the end of the driver and re gripped it. Will see
what happens. We're playing Quantico again Monday.
