That would be too bad.
But who do those layabout stadium workers think they are, anyway? Demanding 2% annual wage increases? Of all the nerve. (Want to keep the union out of the workplace? Foster a working environment where the union would be unneccesary). You have to be a bit empathetic with workers earning 9-10 USD an hour and hoping to merely keep abreast of inflation. Quite a bit different than the boat shows that unions screwed up on the east coast- there were some shows at one time where as an exhibitor you were prohibited from unpacking and setting up your own display.......(had to call in a $100 minimum Teamster). Once you had your booth erected, you were required to pay a member of the electrician's union a minimum amount (probably $75-100) to "connect exhibit to stadium grid"........IOW, plug in your extension cord. The BC thing sounds like its the actual stadium folks- ushers, ticket takers, janitors, etc.....asking for a 2% raise. |
