Most of the anti-union clowns here don't have the aptitude or skills to be
trained as a hod carrier's apprentice. They're resentful of blue collar
guys earning enough to make a decent living. I give their opinions in this
area all the consideration they are worth...which is none at all.

Hey, if you didn't have us, you'd have nothing to complain about.

Besides that, with his vulgar name calling, and insults, if he ever
really was on a construction job site, he'd get his fat smelly ass
beat in a minute!

Not true. I am the consumer from hell, and also the guy who will
not talk to customer support people in India.

Racist!


Racist? There are no racial classifications in India. My problems
with support "offshored" to India has to do with the fact that those
jobs should be held by Americans, that the majority of tech support
personnel I have encountered on the phone in India have not received
enough training to be helpful, that the phone connections typically
are "over the internet and lousy" and that many of the personnel have
a lousy command of English.

It has nothing to do with race.

You hate Asians, Arabs, Muslims. I have all of them working for me in
India.

Harry Krause you are a racist.




As usual, you are full of schitt. Oh...Arab and Muslim are not races.

I'll have to remember that the next time you call someone a racist. Are
we going to go with the three standard races, Caucasiods, Negroids and
Mongoloids?

So, you are stupid, too.

Ok.

A Muslim is a member of a particular religion Islam. It is the same sort
of descriptor as Jewish, Catholic and Protestant. Muslim does not denote
race.

Arabs are part of an ethnic group. There are other definitions, too, but
Arab does not denote race.

You can go with whatever racial descriptors please you. I don't pay
attention to skin color.

I was on a condo construction site last week where a union crew turned
out an incredible three story winding stainless steel and glass
staircase. The tube bending and welds and panels of curved glass were as
close to perfect as any I've seen in my working life. Obviously, what
the job needed was someone with Justwait's skill to tack on some
footpegs and someone with FloridaJim's skill to sweep the floor.

Wait a hold-it Harry,

Are you trying to convince us that your union construction crew bent and
fabricated the SS tubes, and formed the "perfect" panels of curved glass
on site? * I don't believe it.

Or did they simply install them, supplied by a manufacturer?

The staircase was built on site in a closed off area of the parking garage
with special equipment typically used at facilities that fabricate for the
aerospace industry; the glass was produced at a union factory. I took a
few photos, which I might post later. The pricetag for the staircase
was...astonishing. :)

"Special equipment used by facilities that fabricate for the aerospace
industry"?

I call Bull ****. * Either that Harry, or some PR dude was handing you a
line.

To fabricate what you are talking about would require hydraulic tubing
benders, mandrels, etc. .... nothing very exotic. *Normally they would
simply be made in ship-able sizes/lengths and then butt welded together on
site.

But how did they finish them? * Were they passivated? * Electropolished?
Were those tanks set up in the parking lot? * In Boston? * No friggin' way.

What you are talking about is pretty routine work for any fab shop with the
proper equipment.

The glass is something else.

Here's the deal guys. *Harry is in the union marketing business. *He's
essentially a marketer for union labor.

That's what he does for a living. *Kind of like Amway sales in a way.- Hide quoted text -

HEY.......quit dissing Amway sales people. They will surely take
offense at you lumping them in with Harry. At least they know
something about their product!

Good point.

You told me. And you'd be the authority because your nose is always
stuffed up it. Also, anybody that grotesquely overweight and out of
shape must be sweaty and nasty.

There are some pretty serious allegations on this web site.

Cat got your tongue Harry?

Where I worked...no one was forced to sign a card, although under the terms
of employment they paid union dues and enjoyed any advantages the full
members enjoyed. ( except they couldn't run for office in the local)

I doubt FloridaJim or his buddy JustWait could qualify as an apprentice
in any of the skilled unions.

Harry, I didn't know you were a welding expert. Another thing about
your above lie, you can't convince me that the staircase was site-
built. It was pre-fabricated, and sent onsite. So, the union crew only
erected the thing. Quite possibly the manufacturer isn't a union shop.

The manufacturer has the assembly alignment fixtures. They used to
call them jigs, but someone decided that was politically incorrect.
Whichever, that means they can do it faster, cheaper, and better.

Even *mother board* and *daughter board* were taboo at AT&T years ago.
