I am just beside myself knowing how many people would rather smoke pole than enjoy a decent living working a union job. I never realized how fricken stupid people were. Do you know Garry?

Your a farmer aren't you?

Maybe I'll pass on your sentiments to my Longshoreman brothers in Vancouver. We'll see how quick your wheat gets to market. :beer:

Once again, it's amazing we don't see this sad and petty attitude from people working in the private sector.
Pass on any sentiments you want, but I'd venture to guess if those guys worked any slower, a medic would need to check for a pulse.

Not a farmer, but I'm guessing you have to eat, right?

So what is it called that you are doing here with this comment, showing us a prime example of adult behaviour?

Coming from the guy who's replied no less than 3 times with the intelligent and well-though out response of "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"

Don't know what planet you're from but never in my life have I or anyone I know ever had to sign any contracts to work in a union shop. What union is this your referring too exactly?

If you say CLAC be prepared for laughter of the large kind!

There was a whole documentary after the big strike at lakeside

I am STILL not caught up on mail. I'm finally getting crap dated mid june, some that was mailed within my city. Some very important stuff that is really screwing me over. Some stuff you can get online, but important documents, etc you cannot, and them being a month late is a DIASTER.

I don't care what the hell they went on strike for but all it did was piss off all the citizens who RELIE on that mail. They have lost the respect of most citizens in my opinion, me for one anyways. If you want more benefits, pay, whatever fine but striking and taking away a essentail service is a joke. Nothing to do with being union or not.

How would canada post workers feel if fire,ems, or cops went on strike (even though they aren't allowed), it's not exactly the same but close.

I think if they want to strike again, the union should pay ups, fedex, all those places to deliver regular mail. See if they still want to go on strike.
As long as I get my mail, I don't care what canada post workers do.

I wonder if they knew that Cyle did not approve the strike vote.....

Maybe if he had of spoke up a little earlier this whole situation could have been avoided...so much for thier profits now that they have pizzed off Cyle

Those bastards have no clue what it's like to starve, what if all the farmers went on strike for a year, I bet they would b*ch cause they're hungry, they need to go hungry for a while, then maybe they will appreciate their job for once.....

Canada Post is the most rotten system on the planet, I ordered an online parcel back in april/may and they simply lost my parcel they even opened a trace and couldn't locate it. I received no explanation or compensation from Canada Post, they are our national postal service and they couldn't even deliver a 59 dollar parcel :realmad: i will never have anything shipped from them again
