[QUOTE="TrainTrac, post: 801818, member: 55399"] Wow, this thread has gone off on a completely different track from the original topic. However, after watching the market last week, I still stand by my statement that the laws of supply and demand [i]do[/i] work. On another note, I do agree that at one time, unions did serve a useful purpose in protecting the interests of their members. But they've gotten way out of hand in modern times. Case in point: I work at a university (in an Academic Professional, non-union position). I've been here for about four months, and am in the process of decorating/personalizing my office. However, if I want a picture hung, or want to even re-arrange the furniture I was in no way instructed to do it myself. I have to submit a facilities maintenance request for a [b]union[/b] facilities worker to come up and do it. And it could take up to a week for that to happen, when I could have it done in five minutes!:blink: Here another story illustrating this kind of absurdity: [/QUOTE]
