Yeah whad up money grip?
Tuesday is here YES!!!!!!!

Just reading about the possible closing of all tube ticket offices and having a wry chuckle. Their fucking cunt union has behaved so appallingly for so long that bosses are prepared to do almost anything just to lay people off. Your fault, cunts. Or am *I* the cunt here?

Alt: I woke up with LL Cool J's 'Mama Said Knock You Out' in my head. I think it's the best comeback record of all time. Possibly the best comeback of all time although Elvis Presley's 1968 effort was a good shout. Who or what do you think is history's finest comeback?

I don't have any personal experience at all, so I'm not really qualified to comment
but it seems to me that, historically, all-powerful unions only ever brought crippling economic problems with them.

Only that?
Not better rights and working conditions for millions of people?

The tube drivers do have it pretty fucking good compared to millions of people though

I think the principle is that we should aim to bring those millions of people up to the level of these 'over-privileged' tube drivers rather than drag them down to a lower standard of living.

It works both ways
Yes of course that's true. But those who are lucky enough to have relatively high paid and undemanding jobs should shut the fuck up about things like not getting TRIPLE time.

As with a lot of these sorts of things I agree with Unions in principle but in practise they often weld power in exactly the same way as the "evil bosses" they try to rail against

Really?
These days they mostly look as though they're pissing in the wind.

Yes really
The unions (certainly the smaller ones) do a lot of good for the general worker, unfortunately and this is viewed from the outside in Crow's case he blusters and threatens and seems to draw any public sympathy from his cause. Maybe its a PR thing but if we look at the recent case with Unite and potential vote rigging etc.
