2. I will gladly rec this!
Edited on Sat May-31-08 09:00 AM by RubyDuby in GA
I hate that GA is a "right to work" state. All the stupid republicans (meaning dumb less than average joes on the street) bitch and moan about "them damn mexicans" taking all the good jobs all the time. They shut up immediately when I remind them that the good jobs were long gone before anyone else got to them because they have all but chased the unions out of the state. They hate to be reminded that unions protect what used to be theirs. I especially try to get them going on a weekend or a holiday so I can tell them to thank the unions that they have weekends off and only have to work 40 hours a week instead of 80!

They also hate it that right to work usually means right to fire for no good reason.

But then again, as a proud wife of a Teamster and a life long Democrat, it's not hard for me to pick a fight with them.
