rant about the UNION

ok...so i have never been in the union until about a year and a half ago....i pretty much just turned in my card as supplemental car insurance...Not being a union-raised person, i went into the military, served my country, and received my honorable discharge for 6 years of service....
here's my gripe....i never made over 30-35 grand before...last year i made around 60....the work isn't bad, it's a LARGE company, and there are generally no complaints about anything, especially since i don't pay for health insurance either....not even for family....these friggin retards gripe about how the company is screwing us because they had 100 billion profit last year....
WHOOOO CAAARES?????we make good money...i don't see how we are getting screwed.....some of the FORK LIFT DRIVERS make 30-is an hour!!!!!!local going rate is 10 or less.......also, i work in Maintenance, and have a separate contract, but under the same union as production.....and a lot of the maintenance people want under the master, so that we can be added leverage against the company in the event of a strike....WTF is that crap????
talk about people with outdated ideals and methods......

and then, just 2 nights ago.....we are sitting at the break table before the shift started, and our own STEWARD threatened a guy right there in front of everybody.....he asked "bob" out of the blue if he was going to cross the picket line....since we are under a different contract, and we cannot LEGALLY go out with production, "bob" answered that he didn't even know what was going on, so he couldnt make that decision yet.
the steward started yelling at him and said that's ok because he know's where "bob" stands.....then said "cross that picket line and you WILL see what happens....SCAB"
GRRRR...PISSES me off...then he left and came back and told "bob", a US Marines retiree, that he is a coward
who wants to be a part of that??????
our contract specifically says that we will not support or participate in any picket, strike OR demonstration by any group.....
and yet ALL THESE SHEEP are going to walk out that door when production walks out.....

there's so much more....i'm just pissed offf
sorry to have offended any Union people, but this crap is FUUUUUGGGGEEEEDDDD up!!!!!!!
