“Nobody wants to work” / “Nobody shows company loyalty any more”

When my grandfather started working with a 3rd grade education, he had a rough time finding stable work. After a couple of companies (and no more than 2 years searching), though, he found good work for a utilities company that offered solid wages, benefits enough to raise a family of 6 kids, and received a PENSION that is STILL paying out years after he retired (more years retired even than he put into the company as a whole).

They believe that we will continue to work as wage slaves indefinitely for the sole purpose of increasing quarterly profit numbers and anyone who feels differently is a socialist, communist supporter, and someone who has no work ethic or company morals. Then they are doing everything (possibly) short of murder to stop unionizing so that we can, in some capacity, fight for OUR rights as workers.

Fuck this bullshit.
