When it went live they all pitched a fit and went on strike... Apparently Unions don't like having their efficiency tracked... image that! The application was removed... There went two years of my life! Ah well

only americans understand how these "unions" work, they are extremely greedy and self protective. the clerks who are regular office staff (none of them have a college degree) make over $90K per year, the crane operators much more..
they dont allow newcomers into the union, only family..
few years ago they were forced to take in more staff and they advertised just to make it look like they were hiring, instead they all brought in their cousins and other family not already working there..
