When that is ALL that applies for work....what do you do braniac.

Look this is construction work, we start them at 9.50 per hour green as a gourd. If experienced much more than that. I have a good fellow here that I think the world of, he is a Caucasian male and can barely read and write. He can however drive a forklift very well and call out a piece of lumber from 50 feet away amongst other skills mechanically that help me greatly. He has been here many years and makes around 34 to 38 a year counting his overtime...does that sound like he's being abused to you.

Guess what Union man he worked to get there and didn't **** on the Guvment tit. I have respect for the man and I will go to bat for him anyday and he would run through fire if I asked him to. It didn't take a Union to build that relationship, it took time honered hard work and dedication.

Anything that requires a lot of paper for administration HR stuff like Health Insurance changes, retirement materials, life insurance policies I help him with secretly so he won't be embarrased in front of the guys.
