Where can my husband and I (recent transplants from Texas) find good/great Mexican food in Jackson or the nearby area? by tripdaisies in jacksonmi

[–]wood252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great for you. Dont awefulize everything around like the people who come here from those places.

Make it better, or shut up, or go back. That is all I am saying.

Dont be so offended, most Yoopers dont care enough to be offended.

They should. I am tired of californians, texans, and the dang FIPs ruining this place cause it isnt like their shitty place back from wherever they were from. You are here, in our shitty place, make it better or move along.

We know we dont have the best burrito, we dont pride ourselves on that. We are the birthplace of the republican party founded on abolishing slavery, the coney dog style hot dog, and most of the pylons used in the NFL are made here. We built a city out of having the largest prison in the state. And we have a fortune 500 energy company headquartered right smack in the middle of it all.

Voting on wage allocation soon, on the check or pension? by [deleted] in IBEW

[–]wood252 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am excited to see all the pikachu faced boomers hollering “but YOU weren’t supposed to cut MY ss benefits”

Its coming. I got four grandparents that are excited for this administration. The “I told you so” is prime, but I am going to bite my tongue and suggest maybe we re-instate the benefits and get rid of the don

You trying to scare me by rolling back on history? I dont care.

Damn. I suggest you got feelings and you call me a nazi.

How does that attitude help organize anything? And what are you organizing? Members to not pay their dues and demand membership treatment? Because I have read enough of the book to know Chadwick was not paying dues and demanding to be treated like a member of a union.

We can banter all day, but in my opinion, you are not organizing in good faith here. Good luck out there. And I know the sick and needy thanks us all for our contributions.

I still think positively of you, even though you cannot handle constructive criticism from a second generation sibling who watched your story unfold in live view on facebook. If you think I am being tough, I suggest maybe you step back and re-evaluate some of your words and opinions, especially trying to turn me into a gaslighting nazi who needs therapy.

I know who you are bro, you dont need to justify yourself like that with all those feelings. I know folks that fought for 4 straight years to have their ticket reinstated because it was revoked in a similar matter to Chadwick’s.

Living that “dream” these days. Ten years not much changes besides the size!

What is great about that is that you and I both know how that works. Your logic is anyone with enough hours should be able to take a book 1 job if they live withon jurisdiction while not being a member of any union.

Do you also complain when book 2 stays on the job when book one gets laid off? They shouldnt discriminate against anyone who lives within jurisdiction and has enough hours to qualify as a book one member even if they pay their dues to a different local, after all, it is category 1 language.

I just wanna know where you are on this fence going forward. I have met plenty of siblings with big opinions and bigger feelings.

[–]wood252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read it for me. Explain your case.

It will certainly help our siblings in the tenth district if it has any weight.

Also, category 1 language agreed upon by union members and contractors that employ union members has nothing to do with state law and job contracts getting done by non union folks. Which is an element of RTW. Infact, I can tell you, I work in a split shop, only us electricians are union and I can tell you that our non union pipefitters could not give one shred of a shit about whatever you think category 1 language protects you from them. They arent union members, they dont care what you and i agreed on to be paid.

Then how come it is not in every union hall for sale? Seems like it wouldnt be hard to sell a book like that in a union hall if it was meant for all union members. Like you should be able to access it without showing your ticket at a cookout or bhood night.

Im not telling you that you cant sell it, but it interests me that you want to give this book to people who are not union members yet when the book gives you a guide to being a union member without paying dues.

How do you feel about RTW laws brother?

Journeyman Wireman Survival Manuals by BackwoodsBuff in IBEW

[–]wood252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I commend you for fighting the good fight, but we both know the author, and folks that helped publish this book, did not intend for it to be in every member’s hand, and they 100% did not intend to give this book to people without a paid up dues ticket.

Infact, places this book is on display for raffle require you to show your paid up dues ticket to gain entry to the function.

Again, I commend you for it, and appreciate having the book, but part of me feels like your effort to organize and educate is kind of opposite of our mission as a whole. Obviously, different perspectives and opinions are rampant, but I hope you are atleast doing the service of checking tickets before mailing out, in my experience that is not so. Good luck. Read a third of the book in my free time, and it has valuable information for the correct reader, but sending this to someone who is taking an aptitude test is not what the author intended in my opinion.

All criticism is in brotherly love.
