[QUOTE="Kona, post: 1200344, member: 318"] I don't know much about unions, but I do know these things: After I killed all the terrorists and got out of the US Navy I was going to get a job that would have required me to be in the Seafarers union. Basically they wanted me to go to some school somewhere and learn stuff I already knew. The paperwork process was such a ckusterfuck I gave up. Second, my grandma getsba pension from the hotel workers union. She has to have a form notarized twice a year that says she isn't dead. Thenrules of this pension were the mostvscrewed up shitshow I've ever seen. She has a "pension pot" that's worth enough money for her to get the current payments for another forty years, guess what, she pushing ninety. This is somehow connected to her medicare advantage insurance. They readily admitted the misbilled my dear old grandma when her monthlybrate went up. She just keptvwriting the check for the same amount with her sweet little withered fingers, well eventually the past due balance built up to the point that they cancelled the policy. This has required a clusterfuck of papers, much like the seafarers union. They dont get mail, they say the shit is late, they say its damaged, etc. Its just stupid. So I say no unions. Aloha!
