> [@no casino for Buffalo.....](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/no-casino-for-buffalo/51202/98): > > QFT. I’m a field service engineer on high end biotech platforms. With NO education. Went to SUNY for 3 years and dropped out to work. Moved around a bunch. Jumped jobs. Worked at Dealerships. Etc Etc. I won’t put you to sleep with my story. > > If someone schooled me on unions in high school, INSTEAD of pumping me full of bullfuckingshit “you have to go to college” rhetoric, I would surely NOT be in the field I’m in now. I knew NOTHING of unions other than horseshit history book exposure, until I had a union roommate well after school. 😉 > > I’ve worked in industries where unions thrive and I’ve worked in areas of the country where “right to work” thrives. Do YOU want to be an experienced welder starting out at $12 an hour? Then move to NC, you will. No rights. No benefits. $12/hr. Sure its cheap to live there, BECAUSE YOU’LL MAKE NOTHING. > > Union or no Union; Work hard. Don’t act stupid. Protect your neck. Get paid. > > “FBG$$$” > -Trace64SS Exactly. I went to ITT Tech. Its no high end school by any means, but its 90% hands on teach and do what you are actually going to do in your job type education. It got me the piece of paper that got me in the door with no relaited expierence, which put that first job on my resume. While I was in school I looked at the older people there working on their 2nd or 3rd DEGREE and threw around their endless certification lists, but “cant find a good IT job”. Once we got into labs, I knew exactly why. Half the time they were taking smoke breaks, talking on the phone in the hallway, and asking ME how to complete a part of a lab. Thats why they are between jobs and bitching about how everything is holding them down. They are not good employees. Its not the employer. > [@FS: parting out 94 gsr (NOW WITH VTEC HEAD PICS)](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-parting-out-94-gsr-now-with-vtec-head-pics/50906/31): > > unions and entitlements are bankrupting companies, i don’t blame wal-mart. > > i hate to say this but if you’re not happy at any job, for any reason, you have the option to leave and go work elsewhere. Why complain and keep working for a company if you don’t like what they’re doing to you? > > i hate hearing people compain about work and money. “i’ve been here for blah blah years and i don’t make xxx yet, they are screwing me”. So go find another job, if you are a valuable employee and you can market yourself, your assets, and why you would benefit a company finding a job is not hard. > If you are a lazy slob who is too lazy to attempt finding another job then you’ll just sit there and do what you’ve been doing and complain about it all day. If you see your employer failing, and dont like it, leave. Fuck um. You are not the owners. Let them fail. Go somewhere that wants good employees, wants to respect the, want to pay them accordingly, and wants to steamroll the place you just left to come there. THOSE PLACES WILL KEEP THIS COUNTRY THRIVING. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/shift-worthy-news-story/265716)._
