If that's a true story, what's to keep the management from continuing the specialized wheelbarrow loading/dumping? Could be bad management, not right to work, that's at fault here. Message #240776 from TigerPaw at Mar 21, 2002 10:58 PM You remind me of a case I know about locally. A small company had union labor and they landscaped. Under union rules there was a laborer who dug material out of the wagon and filled wheelbarrows and another that emptied the wheelbarrow on the landscape. (there were more but these illustrate the point). There was a vote which eliminated the union (for a raise) as this is a "right to work" state and so essentially both workers filled the wheelbarrow and dumped it thereby increasing productivity. The trouble is they came down with injuries since there wasn't a moment's rest as there used to be. The lawsuits eventually led to the company's demise. TP

maybe they were just braindead, and couldn't figure out that you tip a wheelbarrow forward to empty it. Why weren't they given grants by the democrats and sent to wheelbarrow graduate school? I think we need to get a special prosecutor or something to get to the bottom of this, it's probably Bush's fault, and he's stealing that 10 billion which could have been used to educate these people, and they could have learned a whole trade, (both emptying a wheelbarrow, AND filling it) and not just half a trade.
