  1. At dega you always have multiple car crashes. Product of the draft. Don't think aerodynamic of new car help with control on bump drafting. Car seems real unstable. Like to see them run the late 80's bodies on the new chassis at 900 hp

  2. I can't side with workers on this one. They get paid 100's if not 1000's of hours of over time pay while not even being at work. Know for a fact I've seen thier pay stubs. It's not possible to work the amount of hours they get paid.

  3. I'm all for fair pay. Wanting a 75% pay raise is crazy. I know in the refinery that unions if they strike they just use contractors and non union supervision ( people who got promoted that use to be union employees). So they don't feel any impact from a strike. Ports don't have this option. Due to the amount of people it takes to unload 1 container.

  4. Screenshot of issues on the contract. I would usually side with the workers. But with knowing how they get paid for hours that they aren't physically working plus how many hours that is in a year I don't feel bad for them. fe0dd101527cae71447d956687d769f2.jpg88d6f59df0f351e7ea0769c61640f035.jpg

  5. Are the demands you're citing from an article, or from firsthand knowledge? What you're describing IS one hell of a reach for 600,000 employees, but that many employees wouldn't be voting to strike if they didn't feel that management was fucking them over. 
    If the union is demanding a bad deal, then that's usually in response to bad/punitive management. It'll be interesting to see the facts around this as they get reported and confirmed
    Firsthand knowledge. They feel that way cause a ceo got a huge raise/bonus
  6. Negotiations have been ongoing. Crane operator can only work 5 hour shifts due to the physical demands of operating the cranes. As I've told him they have a great deal now. Especially due to not needing any college education to make 250k a year as new employees

  7. I'm friends with a guy who works at the port. What they are asking for is insane. 75% pay raise, free insurance, 25% match to 401 k. Now the way thier pay works is depending on how/when they get called out they can get anywhere from 10 to 28 hours of overtime pay for working only 5 to 10 hours. Said their clerical employee who calls people out has been known to get paid 80+ hours of ot for only working 20 hours. Some people are clearing 350k a year. I don't feel bad for them. If they strike and get replaced then that's thier fault

  8. Legit titles? How many yankees were juiced in the 90's and 2000's. How many were taking greenies (amphetamine) pre 1980's? Don't try the whole yankees are pure and never did anything wrong bs .

    My statement was the Astros own the Yankees in the post season.
    13 to 5 fyi
