Posted this to my blog, but still need to vent
Unions should have been abolished long ago, when work standards codes were indroduced to law. All they are are now is an impediment to efficiency, and a self-serving mafia.
The Police Brotherhood in Quebec, the Teamsters, the union of maintenance workers at my work (who won't allow us to replace the 27in tv's that died for new ones so that we can see our group stats and service levels), I have yet to hear of one good thing a union has achieved in the last 25 years.
So fuck you, TTC union, fuck you, Kinnear, and fuck any of the overpaid, fat-assed joystick handlers and cashiers who are bitching about being underpaid at 60k+, while I, with 2 degrees, 3 certifications (soon to be 5), have to struggle to get mid-40's.
If I hear a TTC employee bitch about their pay and work conditions near me, I will punch their teeth out.
