here is my schedule if it helps, I don't know your running level:

M 3 miles
T 2 miles/lift
W 2 miles/lift
T 4 miles
F 4-5 miles
S 1 mile lift
Sunday lift

Of course I rarely make it all 7 days but you can figure out where you need to make up.

Wouldn't that drive up prices even more? Higher auto worker wages get passed on to...the consumer.

Unions are decreasing....auto prices still going up. Home prices going up, food prices going up. What are you proposing? Free labor to bring the prices of goods down? Unions are to protect the workers.....I was CWA for about 5 years before I finished college.

Unions = it doesn't matter how hard you work or what you contribute, it only matters how long you've been there. Unions make it where the best workers don't get paid near what they are worth and the worst workers get paid far more than they deserve. My dad is required to be in a union for his job on the railroad. He is as liberal as they day is long and he hates the union with a fiery passion that cannot be extinguished.

Tis true....but you find those types of disparities in non union jobs as well.

posted on Gridscape for a bit. Really more Scout and Vq before it was .25.

Man, .25 were wild back in the day.

Cajun, Rednav, Lloydbraun. Dudes were funny. Kevin Simon's dad was on there. Arian's Mom. Larry. Hubbs and Rob were only mods.

Volquest used to have get togethers at Bailey's in West Knox. And cookouts at OW game. Man that was fun.

Really just a preference on who you want screwing you over. The co. or the union but it's really irrelevant.
Any increase in income goes straight to the needs section of the market (food, shelter, transportation)

The purpose of dual income families was to get ahead in life. Ha, that "extra income" was sniffed out like blood in a shark filled pool.

Indeed. The first generation posters such as Guido Vol, Jumpmaster, TennStud, and so many others were great. RIP to all of those who are no longer with us.

Agreed on the dual income. And with a with a union company you get screwed twice... For the same work.

I’ve always assumed the AtlantaVol on here was the same one that used to argue with Bob Kendall at around the time that Fulmer left.

Unions primary concern is making sure those dues get deducted from the paycheck.
