Omaha Steve's Labor Group

found some neatly nailed pay-stubs to a floor joist. Pay stubs were from a Todd shipyard union worker in Seattle. I don't remember all years present except 75. (Was 30 years ago). This man made what they call 'bank' compared to today's workers. Hard, nasty, dangerous work. I worked for the port and did better than just OK myself. Bethlehem steel, Todd shipyard, and Port of Seattle and of course Boeing partly built and supported West Seattle and other neighborhoods surely. I bought a home in WS 40 years ago and recently sold for 1.1 million. Paid 40K.

This was how wealth was built for the working man back in the day IMO

Wage slavery is real and flourishing by design.

I am happy and financially doing quite well in retirement. (present political situation excepted)

I advised one of my daughters boyfriend to join a union, he did, the electricians Union and makes 150k last I heard. That was many years ago, I am sure it's even better now.

Who cares what color ones collar is, if we can take good care of our families and have a few beers now and then.

Thank dog for unions
