So I started my new job as an AT&T DSL tech on Tuesday. After months and months of either being jobless or working for peanuts at dead-end jobs, let me tell you – it’s nice to finally get paid what I think I’m worth. Also, I’m very proud to finally work for a union shop. The union rep hasn’t come around to my new hire class yet, but in a few days I will become a member of the Communication Workers of America. Labor unions have done a world of good for people who, before the advent of unions, had no choice but to work under deplorable conditions. Yes, I’m a pinko socialist wingbat and proud of it.
