I love the myth that all Union people think their dear leaders can do no wrong. Maybe you should stop debating with the paper tigers you imagine and actually discuss facts. Not one pro-Union person in this thread has said anything remotely close to your statement. Also, are you suggesting that it is OK to use an edited video to generalize about Unions because some members are not 'angels'?
Alright, however you want to justify your attacks, it stills comes across as petty and cheapens any valid point you have to make, IMO. Spanking doesn't offend me. I find it archaic method of discipline and studies show that physical punishment can cause issues in children. But every parent should make that choice. Just ironic to me that you are arguing union is not full of thugs while insulting posters and saying they should be spanked. Would hate to see you on the line arguing with people on the other side . . . I doubt you would be able to control yourself.
What a bunch of uneducated, brain-washed, bumper-sticker-material drivel. I can see why you had to resort to joining a union.
You sure jump to a lot of conclusions. Just to be clear, I am not, nor have I, defended spanking. I made an off hand insult at some twerps. At the risk of offending you I will point out the irony of your position. You are offended enough to speak out in defense of the emotions of these lying twerps, yet you never voiced concern for the workers who were being lied about. More irony shows when you accuse me of 'justifying my attacks' while you attack me over a single sentence (spanking) that has nothing to do with anything I have talked about in this thread. Speaking of controlling one's self...
Yes, because simply telling your kids right from wrong is "good enough" as our society and morality falls to shambles...? Please tell me that was supposed to be green font.
UPS man just dropped some wine off at our office. I noticed he had the entire thing on the side of his truck.
Yes let's speak about controlling oneself (as you leave it out there like you made a point). I am not out here attacking a broad group of people saying they are children who need to be spanked and maybe someday they will get a real job. If I was, I would consider myself being out of control. Instead I'm questioning/attacking your particular statement. I don't believe that is out of control and at the very least there is a clear difference to what I am doing (challenging your specific statement) compared to what you are doing (attacking posters that don't think like you) I also haven't dumbed down my "attacking" you by saying you should be spanked or haven't held a real job in which you didn't have a union to protect you. I also have not defended the other side (as you claim) as I tend to side with unions (although you are changing my mind). I also haven't found the need to call you names to make a point whereas you now have called posters 10 yr old kids, never having a real job and twerps. I can tell you I know many posters in this thread and they are not 10 yr old, have had "real" jobs and if they are twerps I guess depends on your definition but this is the first time they have been referred to as twerps. So yes, you basically appear to be so emotional about the topic as to be out of control while I have limited my discussions to particular statements without the need of using derogatory names to make my point. The only thing I agree with is the name calling and suggested need for spanking has little to do with the issues, yet you feel compelled to end your long post with those thoughts . . . when they have nothing to do with the issues. So who is out of control again?
Umm it was such obvious sarcasm it didn't need green font. I thought better with you man. I'm disappointed
There's no bottled up hatred. I make it well known that I think unions, in general, are a complete joke. And I've already said that those who purposely join a union do so because they know they can't succeed on their own merit. Threads like these just prove my point.
Dude, there are so many humorless fukks here, and the way these posts twists, I admit, I can't always detect sarcasm. Add up the additional ish going on in life, and it's a double-whammy. But I had seen at least one person against spanking in this thread, and I can't keep all you dudes straight anymore.
Not really. If you were mediocre you'd have faced the same fate. Management's dishonesty is why time served is needed as a performance measure to protect workers. Funny that you complain since you receive extra super preferential treatment from the world's largest unionized employer. More qualified non-veterans with more time on the job will always be let go to protect your position, in any federal employment of any kind.
