Krause will be all over that, lying in his answers to every question.

You really should get some help for your inane obsessions, racist.

I suppose a lot would have to do with if you are answering about how
you act at work and how you are in your private life.


That's a weird answer, but, then, I didn't bother with Yellowstreak's or
Racist's URL.

Then you have no point of reference, why even bother answering?

My point is if you are in a management position you have to be more
assertive and confident in your decisions than you might be in your
private life.
In social situations I am far more likely to "go along to get along".


But not Krause!

Yup, if you are a union member you are, by definition, labor (not
management) and you just get in line, keep your ideas to yourself and
wait for your automatic promotions and raises.
Being better trumped by time in grade. If you have a lot of initiative
and self esteem, they will bludgeon it out of you.



Your assumptions, as usual, are wrong. And I doubt Herring has the
skills, strength, stamina, or brains to hold down even a hod carrier's
job in the construction trades. You might be able to hold down a job as
a punch-list guy, maybe.

Your assertions, as usual, are BS. I've worked alongside many union tradesmen over the years. There were a few that were as good as non-union. Most were just average. The difference is that there were also a fair amount that were mouthbreathers that had barely scraped by getting in, but now that they were in they were set for life. Unlike in non-union shops, where they could be ****-canned for lack of performance.

Performing a union job is absolutely nothing special. There is no incentive to perform beyond the lowest common denominator. In fact, doing so will get you "short-sheeted" by your coworkers, eh? Don't you dare stand out and make the rest look bad. They've "fought hard" to get what they have, if you consider coercion and thuggery as fighting hard.

Uh huh. You really are clueless about me aren't you.



I don't see you welding tubes and pipes at a pharma lab or nuclear power
plant, or working as a manufacturing plant electrician, or as a
bricklayer knowing the chemistry necessary to mix up and apply various
high strength or high or low temp mortars, or the strength to fling 40
pound concrete block all day, or maintaining and repairing railroad
diesel-electric powerplants, or even how to mitigate hazardous materials.
