same job but make up the difference by doing half as much work.


7.) It takes longer to fire you than the average killer spends on
death row.


6.) The worse you do your job, the more your boss avoids you.


5.) You think the French are working themselves to death.


4.) You know by having a copy of the Holy Koran on your desk your job
is 100% safe.


3.) You spend more time at protest marches than at church.


2.) You have a Democratic congressman’s lips permanently attached to
your butt.


And the #1 way to tell if you might be a member of a public sector
union:


1.) You pay more in union dues than you do for your healthcare
insurance....


"These are the values inspiring those brave workers in Poland ... They
remind us that where free unions and collective bargaining are
forbidden, freedom is lost." -- Ronald Reagan labor day address (1980)- Hide quoted text -


"All Government employees should realize that the process of
collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted
into the public service. It has its distinct and insurmountable
limitations when applied to public personnel management. The very
nature and purposes of Government make it impossible for
administrative officials to represent fully or to bind the employer in
mutual discussions with Government employee organizations. The
employer is the whole people, who speak by means of laws enacted by
their representatives in Congress. Accordingly, administrative
officials and employees alike are governed and guided, and in many
instances restricted, by laws which establish policies, procedures, or
rules in personnel matters."

"Particularly, I want to emphasize my conviction that militant tactics
have no place in the functions of any organization of Government
employees. Upon employees in the Federal service rests the obligation
to serve the whole people, whose interests and welfare require
orderliness and continuity in the conduct of Government activities.
This obligation is paramount. Since their own services have to do with
the functioning of the Government, a strike of public employees
manifests nothing less than an intent on their part to prevent or
obstruct the operations of Government until their demands are
satisfied. Such action, looking toward the paralysis of Government by
those who have sworn to support it, is unthinkable and intolerable."

President Franklin D. Roosevelt
