???I would just hold a sign that simply said "I hope you get fired so others who want a job can have yours"
My wife also works for Kroger (King Soopers). For 25 years now. She is a journeyman meat cutter. So she should get fired because she wants to keep her pension that she has worked so hard for for 25 years and wants to keep her benefits?
And you guys have got it all wrong.
The union is a good thing. The major corporations keep fucking over the little guy, and the union is the only way to stand together. Or perhaps you all would like to be minimum wage workers? Hmmmm......It's called standing up for yourself and others and doing what is right.
Julie has been at the top of the pay scale for years now. But she only makes about $4.00 an hour more than when she started 25 years ago. And without the union, there is no pension or benefits. And new hires would be at minimum wage.
Kroger is one of the largest corporations in the world. They can afford good wages. And benefits. The only way this is accomplished is through the union. Without it, the rich get richer and the rest of us get poorer, plain and simple.
But I am in agreement with one thing-the union pres. (Ernest Duran) is a piece of shit. He has steered UFCW 7 into the ground.
And for you unenlightened folks-the union has nothing to do with communism. I fail to see the connection. It's about getting paid a good wage for good work.
Now what's really fucked up is that Kroger is going to pay the scabs more than they pay their own employees right now. And if you get hired to protest, you get around $10.00 an hour-but union people only get $225.00 per week. It's a big mess, for sure.
Okay......"We, the people of the United States, in order to establish a more perfect Union"....How about something along the lines of unions being the answer to a 200 year old problem...or something like that.
