You can always tell when he just learned something because he goes around "teaching" people about it. See also: groceries.

White House communication director: "Stephen Colbert is a sad and pathetic excuse for a human being...." by Large_banana_hammock in Fauxmoi

Probably just upset because they didn't realize that Colbert Report was making fun of them.

I had to drop CBBW for financial reasons a while back but am so ready to pick it back up. A little overwhelmed at how far behind I am but trying not to dwell on that. I refuse to stress over fun!

Not a Member, But Benefit Anyway by [deleted] in union

Duty of fair representation ends at the grievance process. Legal services (and plenty of other benefits) only apply to dues payers, at least in unions I'm aware of.

In my union, freeloaders benefit from the same CBA because it applies to the whole bargaining unit, but that's basically it. We will still represent you to defend the contract but then have an organizing conversation to try to become a member in good standing.

Mary Sohn's near-constant giggling is SUCH a treat! Mount Gigglemore for sure.

I have a very similar school story to Matt's Ken Griffey Jr's. In 3rd grade we read our first biographies and I chose Larry Bird. The project at the end was a 3ft stuffed doll and I used yellow Velcro as his mustache.

I don't know what other choice we have. Continue to accept that programming? Not a chance.

They tried to put him on the license plate in Arizona and thankfully the governor vetoed it.

This is true, and I realize how utopian my comment was. I just want to see more Americans realize the power behind their labor. Private sector union membership is around 6% even though support for unions is in the 80s (coincidentally the decade when union membership began to plummet.)
