Crash Journal

For Boeing it was the strike, I'm told. No idea how that keeps them from paying their bills, but whatever. Really, no idea on any of the reasons I heard that other groups used.

I'm hoping my coworkers find decent positions elsewhere. I'm still bummed they will be leaving. It's as easy in VA as it is in Texas as well, though a similar paying job in this part of VA might not be so easy, and who wants to uproot their family this time of year.

Nope I did that once it sucked big time

Hope your co workers find something.

These things are growing super fast. I'm starting to want to up pot at least a couple of females to harvest instead of just making seeds. The little one on the left is a GDPA in some raised garden bed soil, and is already starting to yellow. I'm going to have to move it into some coco. Same with the SF seedling in the solo cup. It's the only one that popped in my last seed cracking experiments. I'm learning, though.

A strike is usually only good for the Union. Everyone else gets shafted by higher prices on that particular product.
That's why it cost so goddamn much for a new truck or car. It's called the UAW/ Mafia.
Kinda like the fking Government and raising taxes. They get raises and the ppl paying the taxes always get fked.
I'm am so glad that Texas is a Right To Work State. The little guy starting a business actually stands a chance against the Unions.
I was one of those little guys at one time.

VA is right to work as well. I don't have anything good to say about unions. Probably get myself censored for saying what I do think about them : )

Like everything else, there's good and bad with unions. I never liked them, but worked 30 years in a job covered by one. Even got gently pushed into a steward job the last eight years. Half of my union work was HR stuff, assisting folks who had difficulties working and communicating with management.
Upper levels of unions, like management, becomes more corrupt and self serving. But unions got us 40 hour weeks, paid holidays and vacations, and much safer working conditions which can't be overlooked.

I am not a fan of unions. The one union I was forced upon me only took my money and did nothing for me. I got fired for being in the hospital. I was unconscious having s miscarriage. I no called no showed. They fired me. Later I found out they fired me so they could replace me for 1/2 price. Unemployment had a hay day. I had all the documentation I needed. Anyway the union did nothing at all.

It is the only job I ever got fired from.
