"Straight men: lie about your height, have job and treat women like a numbers
game." Yep, pretty spot on. I've had my share of successful OKC dates (didn't hurt living in SF) and found that "starring basically all of the girls recommended more often than not led to some sort of interaction. Doesn't mean you have to lite

Is it really that important? Most guys aren't going to freak if a women is an inch taller or shorter of if she is 5lbs heavier than she tells you (if and eventually when she tells you).

He's a carpet-bagging troll who admits to being a "yankee" himself. Be careful who you align with. Also, fuck your flag. There's lots of great traditions about the south that don't invoke slavery. The white pride of the south isn't more important than the black pride of the south. Or is it?

I don't know the specifics, but I'm guessing there was some wording in the contract that the union didn't want to budge on, lest they weaken their bargaining power with respect to other employees. All of this stuff is typically included in the agreed-upon contract and the arbitrator comes in to settle the dispute.

You don't have to equate all of the south with slavery to understand that slavery, and the Civil War, were dark times in our country's history. This isn't about painting all of the south as slavery apologists; it's about calling out those who do still apologize for it who are also primarily in the south.

Notice how he just disappears when confronted with actual substance. Poor little guy, must be tough being so wrong all the time.

Try to stay on topic, really? The Southern Christian Leadership Conference, who raised the complaint, isn't on topic? Black people in the south raising complaints over the freakin' Civil War flag isn't on topic? What topic are you talking about? Is the Southern Christian Leadership Conference somehow indicative of

AKA, a troll.

"Since you are a snotty, Anglo-Yankee, asshole..." Yeah, because when I read Southern Christian Leadership Conference, I think "Anglo-Yankee, asshole."

You understand that because it's a different city, it's a separate local, right? So that means you can have an aloof local in Detroit and have a tip-top local in Toledo. Again this is how unions work. It'd be like blaming all of McDonald's franchises because one is bad. And no, I'm not defending the actions of

Well, then move. It's a big country and there's plenty of nonunion states. Move to Texas. If you're outvoted and the town/citizens want a union, that's called democracy. Tough shit.

Proof that any of this is happening currently within the UAW in Toledo at the Chrysler plant? Go ahead, I'll wait. Affixing stereotypes or old wives tails about the plant in your home town is not proof of wide-scale union incompetence or corruption. It's a sign that perhaps the local chapter where you are is perhaps

The union most assuredly does represent him for HR purposes, and if he has any issue with the company, again it will represent him. The union will most assuredly administer his benefits (through a union broker). So, it's not so cut and dry as the union just takes poor wittle Joey's money that Chrysler would give

Perhaps if you hadn't started with "your delusional" I wouldn't have responded with equal levels of disdain. Plus I've had a lot of coffee today. My point is if Chrysler was being held hostage by the union contracts and workers, they are free to leave, where what they would offer in terms of employment in another

I obviously can't speak on that union specifically, but I would agree that some unions are bad, many are not. It's easy to cherry pick and use the bad ones as an example. Just as it's easy to label all corporations as bad ( a lot are), when many are big employers trying to make a profit and provide decent jobs. Tone

I'm not in a union. I just find it pointless to bloviate about how bad unions are, then take a job with unions, and then hear people online put forth the same tired talking points when no one is forced to take a job that is union.

The union obviously negotiated a contract that Joey Fuck Nuts found appealing, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the job. My point is that Chrysler perhaps doesn't hate unions the way you do, and that if the unions were so onerous on the bottom line, they're free to move elsewhere. But they haven't. So, hmm, how about

The union represents workers at Chrysler. If he hates unions so much, he didn't have to take the job. But, clearly, the pros outweighed the cons, including a good wage and likely benefits that the union, as a bargaining unit, negotiated. What is difficult to understand here? If it's a fundamental opposition to unions,

No, you can't read. I didn't "imply" anything except that Chrysler, if they wanted to, could choose to ship manufacturing elsewhere. That's especially true now as they're a part of Fiat. But the company hasn't, for some reason, perhaps because they don't hate unions. You're inferring that I must think it's because of

And corporations donate to GOP PACs, so what's the difference, smart guy? Here's another thing your politicized mind can't grasp — Joey Fuck Nuts had the choice — hear that word, CHOICE — to work for the union or not. He chose to work for it, therefore his money will go toward union efforts, including retirement
