My brother is so funny, man. The other day we were talking about Trump and he said,
"Get down, Mr President! He's got a loaded question!"
And I laughed my ass off at that

Unions have the power to do so much good for you. Imagine paying $1,029 over the course of a year and getting people to work in some cases for hundreds of hours for you similar to a lawyer. What a concept. Experience economic harm? We got you. Experience harms from harassment? We got you. Sign up. 🤙

So when we beat the nazis again, I have a suggestion. We give them forehead swastikas like in Inglourious Basterds. This way, they can't slither back into the shadows and plot against us for 80 years. We'll know who they are and not allow them to breathe. Hopefully, most end up dangling from trees.

The same people who say "those who cannot do, teach," are the people who also tell you to go to trade school (and don't see the irony), and the people who never went to school beyond grade 12.

Taking on my biggest case yet. An employee retired last May and shortly after, got a bill for $3,000 from the company. I just found $110,000 they owe him. Now I just have to put rock-solid arguments together because I know they won't settle this without a fight.

What can a union do for you? Today I got a member paid $3200 for 187 days he should have been paid a higher rate, and was successfully able to argue that the figure should be adjusted for inflation. That goes on his next check.
In essence, he lost nothing but the opportunity cost of investing it.

Want your life to get better? Think the world sucks? Struggling to make ends meet?
Stop voting for people who hate the working class.
Let's be clear. Elite Republicans hate the working class (including working-class Republicans)

Uber has always been a shit business model. It only exists to benefit executives and shareholders. The rides are overpriced. The drivers don't get paid fairly. Let it die. People should not be doing this in their spare time to make ends meet. Employers should pay their people better.
Uber steals from its contractors
Lies about it
Profits from it
Dear Reader, it won’t surprise you to know Uber supports Trump and also supported the big Kill America Bill.
Uber=Trump
End it.

Who knew that *checks notes* "promising to make life better for Americans" would be so popular in a time when life is fucking horrible for most Americans. That's crazy
Daily reminder that you don't need a Left Joe Rogan. Zohran wiped the floor with an establishment Dem in a race where he was being called a Muslim Socialist and absolutely no Rogan of the Left would have ever supported him. The kind of people who would fund a Left Rogan are rich Gillibrand Dems

Apathy is how we got from "no taxation without representation," to "it's fine they can fuck us with impunity."

Sure, sex is cool... but have you ever experienced a supervisor exposing all of the dirty things his colleagues do in writing?
On an unrelated note, I have so much crap to hold over my bosses' heads now. Holy fuck

I think it's important for people to understand, as others have said, that a state does not build the infrastructure for mass arrests and disappearances and then stop using that infrastructure when the first targeted group is eliminated. Trump will disappear political opponents, if allowed.

A management structure where the lowest levels of management are instructed to interpret rules in the most ridiculous and unreasonable manner possible is inherently wasteful. It creates the "us versus them" mentality. It creates resentment.
When something is unambiguous, follow the damn rule.
