O'Hare airport workers to go on strike after Thanksgiving
Holiday travelers returning home after Thanksgiving may be in for a headache after it was announced that hundreds of workers plan to strike next week at one of the nation's busiest airports. (www.foxnews.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
They plan to strike during the Thanksgiving holiday but it's not their intent to disrupt operations...Okey Dokey.
No big deal, but FYI, the title of this thread changed after my post, beware.
It will be no disruption b/c they will be fired first.... Or b/c they expect a winter storm the shut down the airport first... That or it will prove how little these positions impact the operation. Pick which ever you find the best reasoning.
If they are so minimally important, perhaps paying them $15 wont break the bank and these folk can actually afford a Thanksgiving dinner... or at least a meal before they start their second daily job.
If they don't like the pay go find another job that pays more. Tough luck people wanting pay for work that is not worth any more and are not willing to go get a better job.
The left wants every one to make more and says its good for everyone but when prices go up then they whine.

Sorry, but the jobs just aren't there. My wife just got her first full-time job in two years, and the previous one didn't even pay her $11/hr even though it was at corporate HQ. Her last job only gave salaried employees full-time hours; even the supervisors who were paid hourly were part-time.
Oh, she also has a degree in computer programming and networking, but has never been able to find a job in that field because she needs 3 years of experience for an entry level job.

The great irony lives on
So? Just because one has a degree means they are qualified to enter the field in which they majored. Every one starts at the bottom and works their way up. So entry level is what it is.
In your wife's case, she has to realize the level at which she enters the field will be at the low end.
Many jobs go unfilled because new grads refuse to take entry level positions.
