HOLLYWOOD IS ON STRIKE Tom's dad was a union leader. And Tom was once a SAG-AFTRA member. Should we all be up in arms about these strikes? Find out about the outrageous phone calls Tom once got from union guy Casey Kasem (fucking ponderous, man)!

so fricking true! I work for a hospital and also a union member here. Our contracts get renewed every 3 years. Fricking nurses and other medical professions here come to us begging to support them and we do every time before they get their contracts renewed. We picket with them, we hand out flyers and you name it. When it is our turn, we can't even get them sign a simple petition to support our causes. Even our own union members settle for a small bonus bcs they re making more than the new hires (or people haven't been here working as long as they have so therefore not making jack shit) Amount of selfishness and everyman for himself attitude here is fucking amazing! Fuck union, fuck corporate merica, and definetly fuck Catholic boy raping hospitals!!!!

I am amazed at the rate which boys are raped and it is not in the media at all. All they talk about is girl victimhood and how girls and women are raped. Not one....talk about boy rape and whenever it is discussed the entire world just cannot handle it and immediately want to change the subject.

Learned a lot from you father! No matter what kind of career or education you have, there is always that big man you are working for and they own you. You can be a fricking CEO and still someone else is going to pull the rug under you. What you have done for yourself and saying fuck you to all this shit is brilliant! I am learning from you and working towards having my own business and hopefully will get out of this fricking rat race some day.

They did really F you for sure. However I can't agree with a blanket statement that all unions suck. In the case of the recent UPS agreement, I think it's a good thing that the unions fought for, and ultimately got in this settlement (we'll have to see how well it's carried out tho) to provide some type of AC for the UPS truck drivers so that they're not keeling over from heat (and young guys have died, it's not just old and infirm). I think this is actually a good thing and if it took the union to make UPS take better care of their workers, without whom they wouldn't be making $$, then good on the union. Bad on corporate for not doing it a long time ago.
