Tom you are wrong again. Federal law mandates overtime pay. 1 and 1/2 times your

size=2>Furthermore, most companies recognize good employees and tend to try to
keep them. They generally don't try to get rid of an employee without reason and
documentation. Unions just force employers to keep underperforming employees at
the expense of the product and the other employees. Just try to fire a union
employee for shoddy work.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=267203420-27012006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I know
I had to keep records of every "incedent" of those I supervised. They were
counseled and warned repeatedly, before being terminated. Except for the one
that put a knife to my back and said "I could shove this blade right into your
heart right now." He was fired on the spot.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

organized labor (pronounced “union”) reflects a major lack of protection for
