    most recent would be what happened with the auto industry, tells chrysler to sell to fiat, buys GM, saves the union (big fucking mistake) BK made a lot of current contracts null and void, but then bent over for union favor and votes..

    hmm you could start with the coal strikes in the first part of last century, work your way up to the strikes at ford inhe 20s, strikes in the late 30s in the steel mills, and many war production plants even through the first part of the 40s. It does happen

    I know Mitch. He runs my side of the unload. I'm jogging my memory of sports fans that I've worked with on the unload on day. Your name's not Kareem is it? :lol:
