701?

I believe so, techs are looking for 38hr guarantee and a few more dollars an hours.

the next contract will happen to expire just when manufacturers are introducing more electric cars in like 2025

Rumor has it the mechanic union in the Chicagoland area is close to going on strike again. Get your cars fixed now or wait till it’s over like a few years back.

That worked great for them last time lol. Clowns

Adds blew up everywhere from dealers paying $50/hr for mechanics

I'll never forget the BP strike in 2015. The main issue was contracting out language, even though the oil producers only contracted work out to other unions. So basically these idiots went 3 months without pay just so that the USW could try and increase the # of dues paying members had little/nothing to do with the pay and benefits of the people that walked out

Imaging giving up $30-50k in wages just to help line the unions pockets...you'd literally have to be a moron

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

Oh and the plants mostly ran full production with temp workers during the strike

Not in whiting. Those plants flare stuff off on the reg, but then when the union is on strike and there's a flare they're all posting "OH MY GOD THEY'RE GOING TO BLOW THE WHOLE PLANT UP".

Yup. I did the security cameras at whiting for a few years around that time. Protests were not uncommon, granted it was usually a bunch of morons just waving signs.

Older flare towers always have a flame. Its how they work lol

G/f “I just donated a bunch of clothes I can’t fit into. Some still had the tags on them.” Then eats more than 1/2pt of ice cream and goes to bed.

My inside voice “I can’t fucking imagine why”, as I’m getting my gear together for doing anywhere from 40-60 miles on the bicycle this weekend.
