Wait - Wuh?? Some Hostess Workers Feel 'Relief' at Losing Jobs ??????????
Hostess employees in Nash County, North Carolina on Friday were relieved that they would lose their jobs because union workers would not agree to an 8-percent pay cut, which was approved by a bankruptcy judge, and end their strike, which crippled the company's factories across the United States.

THATS what you idiots shoulda "negotiated" when you allowed that union to organize your employer......dumbass "fuck you - pay me"

Re: Wait - Wuh?? Some Hostess Workers Feel 'Relief' at Losing Jobs ??????????
years ago on long island....back in the 80s -

theres was/is this industrial pk in hauppauge.

and the unions were trying to organize them.

there was this open house at a hotel - paid for by the factories.

they tried to explain the detriments to the workers

ex:

we pay you a decent wage
healthcare is expensive (and many paid in full the prems at the time - not every bus offered HC tho)
you get vacation, sick, and retirement (some did w/o your contributions)
you got 2 15 min breaks and 30 min lunch
annual raises

add it up...youre actually making XXX amount.

we could take all that away and you can pay your own way.

unions are extortionists.

take a good look at history, the corruption involved .......
the unions reap the benefits - not you. youre just the dumb schmuck who pays them.

if only i could tell you what i know first hand....i cant.
my family for those of you who dont know....is well - watch the sopranos in syndication or on dvd.

Would you want to take a pay cut because your board of directors bankrupted a NATIONWIDE company?

Fuck Hostess. And good for their employees refusing to take the 8% pay cut. I would do the same, union or not. The economy may be poor, but I would lose my job before I let an employer who BLEW HIS MONEY, go and take it out on me, the employee, via pay cuts.

There are jobs if you want to work. Sure, may not be in your field, or of the same pay, but there are jobs out there. In the short term I could live with not having my "dream job" to give my employer a big "FUCK YOU" when they bankrupted their selves and want to take it out on me.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27936947


when you look at it this way dude....lets just say for argument the money you were making on the union job was 15-18 hr....+/-...

the companys in trouble...they ask for a pay cut

reasonably speaking - there couldve been a global meetup to discuss....ALL employees - to include mgmt - to take said cut and....look for other areas to meet some of that cost, such as perhaps finding a cheaper HC policy -

even - trying a 35 hour work week
hiring PT'ers in lieu of FT'ers sometimes isnt what you want to hear but the savings keeps the business in productions bc of the cost factor.

there WERE options.

the teamsters union is memory serves, was cooperative in reaching an agreement. the bakers union remained steadfast in - im saying it....extortion.

they pulled the same fuckin shit on long island 30 yrs ago
*i think it was at entenmenns bakery in bayshore. (??)

2009 - A successful effort to unionize a workplace apparently reduces the market value of affected publicly-traded firms, even if there is no immediate change in their operating performance. In Long-Run Impacts of Unions on Firms: New Evidence From Financial Markets, 1961-1999 (NBER Working Paper 14709), co-authors David Lee and Alexandre Mas estimate that the average effect of a union win at a workplace is to decrease the market value of the affected business by at least $40,500 (in $1998) per worker eligible to vote, based on monthly stock prices for 24 months before and after a vote to unionize. Their simulations suggest that a policy-induced doubling of unionization in the United States would “lead to a 4.3 percent decrease in the equity value of all firms at risk of unionization.”

Most of these businesses have little choice either to comply with Unions or close shop. Unions have a lot of incentive to be aggressive because of all the Federal and State help and benefits they get if they lose like to Hostess. They have a big golden parachute to save them.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18260563


Important point here....HIS MONEY. Employer's money. He can do what ever the fuck he wants with it, including blowing it. And yes, the employees do have to pay the price for what an employer does with the company finances, but it is the company's to do whatever with.

Companies blow money all the time thru bad decisions, malfeasance, etc. That's business. You, as an employee, do NOT have the right to that job, or that pay and benefits.

I'll bet that when the company was doing well, that the unions were clamoring for raises and benefits, but in lean times, for whatever reason, arent willing to give back.
