Where I worked...no one was forced to sign a card, although under the terms of employment they paid union dues and enjoyed any advantages the full members enjoyed. ( except they couldn't run for office in the local) |

( except they couldn't run for office in the local) I doubt FloridaJim or his buddy JustWait could qualify as an apprentice in any of the skilled unions. I was on a condo construction site last week where a union crew turned out an incredible three story winding stainless steel and glass staircase. The tube bending and welds and panels of curved glass were as close to perfect as any I've seen in my working life. Obviously, what the job needed was someone with Justwait's skill to tack on some footpegs and someone with FloridaJim's skill to sweep the floor. |

Wait a hold-it Harry, Are you trying to convince us that your union construction crew bent and fabricated the SS tubes, and formed the "perfect" panels of curved glass on site? I don't believe it. Or did they simply install them, supplied by a manufacturer? Eisboch |

Eisboch The staircase was built on site in a closed off area of the parking garage with special equipment typically used at facilities that fabricate for the aerospace industry; the glass was produced at a union factory. I took a few photos, which I might post later. The pricetag for the staircase was...astonishing. :) |

Either that Harry, or some PR dude was handing you a line. To fabricate what you are talking about would require hydraulic tubing benders, mandrels, etc. .... nothing very exotic. Normally they would simply be made in ship-able sizes/lengths and then butt welded together on site. But how did they finish them? Were they passivated? Electropolished? Were those tanks set up in the parking lot? In Boston? No friggin' way. What you are talking about is pretty routine work for any fab shop with the proper equipment. The glass is something else.

Eisboch It doesn't take much to impress Harry. He should go visit Disney World if he wants to see some pretty neat stuff. |

It's scary to think that this kind of thuggery is still going on. |
