       Every time I try listen to my coworkers talk I'm reminded why I don't like talking to them. Overheard a black guy talking about how much he hates "white dudes" who wear the Punisher logo. Said "you know they're divorced for beating their wives." And went off about how stupid it is to support cops. I'm sure he'd get all upset if someone spouted stereotypes about blacks. But since he's with other liberals they were okay with generalities as long as they "punch up."

       And they're unionizing, but it's funny to hear them talk about it how great it will be. They cite how important unions are for workers' rights and even mention coal mines in the 1900s. Well, we're office workers. We don't have 18 hours shifts in dangerous conditions. For us, a union is just more bureaucracy and fundraising for the democrats (which is why they favor it, I'm sure.) Are there really no better reasons for unions than shit 100 years ago?

       @radraccoon I worked in a factory a few years ago that could have benefited from a union, just to keep them from abusing us over work hours.We'd find out that tonight is mandatory overtime half hour before the end of the shift.  We'd find out tomorrow is mandatory overtime just before the end of the shift.Then two weeks later we'd find out no work tomorrow and no pay.Still, unions probably have made things worse.
