Mayday! May I have another?

We celebrate another Mayday in the Old Pueblo, and our mothers at the union are cooking up their old tricks to steal your money again this fall. This time they plan to dismantle the Machinist's trade, and redistribute the money around the lower pay grades at the expense of the other classes. Are you ready to see the union tell you "The Company" wants to do away with certain trades within the machinists, and they want to combine the skills. Of Course, they want to pay the low skill schlubs the high dollar that the metrology and Tool and Die Makers get. You know what that means for the rest of us? NO Pay Raise, again, like 2003! Oh, maybe there will be, but it will be small, because they are going to take money that you WOULD HAVE gotten in a GWI, and redistribute it to them. How's THOSE Socialist apples for ya? If you complained about the 2003 contract when you got no raise, then stand up and fight these peckerwoods about this one, because BOHICA! Happy Mayday! Oh, and Happy Mother's Day Too!
