They still don't have the kinks ironed out of this blog software.

So, if Washington isn't a right to work state, why do all employers remind their employees that they are accepting at-will employment, Marcia Reed?

Myself Boeing engineer, if i had the $$ i'd be buying homes in SC to rent out to future employees, and yes i'd move to the warm climate of SC.

Why because the rich VIPs aka former slave owners live in elegance while the real Americans slave away to pay other rich basterds there bills. You who are anti union and anti worker have another thing coming. As for the comment on strikes being vacation you are a moron, if you have ever watched union workers sink so low as to work at walmart or some other dumb f*%k southern company you would know it isn’t a vacation. It’s about families and taking care of people who matter. Not the VIPs. You bastards will take nothing with you when you leave this rock accept how you treat real folks. Just wait you southern pricks when blacks and white trash unionize the south and you’re stuck with your humble pie. YOU WILL NOT WIN. Oh and as for college education what did they teach you how to suck your Professors ego? I'll take any American with a high school education up against you and win you elitest prick. You must think we all stay at home listening to our radios. I am currently in the South and it Bites brass balls.

I've quit at least one job with no notice, and been fired from at least two jobs with no notice. Always, the comment from one party or the other is, "Remember, Washington is a right to work state." I also have at least one union-activist friend who decries the fact that Washington is a right to work state. So, where do you find evidence that we are <i>not</i> a right to work state, Ms. Rood?

My husband and I watched the union "rallies" and kept up to date with the RIDICULOUS behavior of machinists during the strike, which was likened to mouthy brats that have had everything handed to them. My husband, a Boeing employee for 18 years, wondered why they were not taking a good deal. Boeing IS good to their employees. My husband has loved his time there. Boeing had to make a decision to keep the company strong. That is simply it. Guess it's time for me to beef up my degree as my husband may not have a job in a few years. I am for fair pay and compensation. Making that kind of money without a college education seems pretty good to me. Well done, Machinists.
