We all know of the recent tanker drivers strikes, the teachers strikes e.t.c and also now the binmens strikes which are due and its got me to thinking, I really hate the unions now!!
The unions came about to protect the rights of workers from the greedy bosses, it now seems that they are the ones suffering from greed. At a time when the country is basically fubar'd is it right for these unions to be asking so much and holding the general population to ransom if they dont get thier way?
Now I understand cost of living is running about 4% and that in an ideal world we would like to see pay rises in line with this but the country simply cant afford to go on in this fashion, its desperate times and by demanding this extra pay aren't we just allowing the countries problems to go on longer?
I have got to the point now where I am feeling hatred towards the unions, I am sick of being threatened by them, I have little to no sympathy for these workers that claim £40K a year isn't enough, some of them claim their jobs are stressful and they deserve these rates, well my response would be that I run my own company, I have to work extremly hard, I am even starting a second company at the moment and I put in 60+ hours a week at least plus the fact im never totally off work, its always there, I always worry about it as I am responsible for it and for my workers, I take home £25K if im lucky and I think I am paid pretty well!!
Anyway, enough of my rant, lets discuss, im interested to see if others are as pissed off with these greedy, overpaid and hypocritical union bosses!!
