I didn't know what I was going to start...

if people (in general - not any of you guys out there specifically)get the details on this particular situation, one will clearly understand how inept the union's position is... and how ineffective and damaging modern-day unions are...

In this particular case the Union's position is clearly out of line when you consider that the average dock union worker is making at least 125K a year with minimal education, many of them only work 4 hours a day, and management has offered significant pay increases and guaranteed no job losses in the new contract.

Personally it hurt my biz because I import Honda oem parts. It hurt me/honda/dealer because the hardtop sat on the docks.
