UNION THREATENS....LAYOFFS?

UAW THREATENS TO LAY OFF CLERICAL STAFF

In a truly bizarre twist of fate, the United Auto Workers is scrambling to not do what it demands the Big Three not do...lay off workers.

The Office Professional Employees International Union, which represents UAW clerical and janitorial staff, after taking major concessions over the last couple of years, is now facing layoffs due to what the UAW claims is rising administrative costs.

What this does clearly illuminate is that organizing and representing labor is a business, and like all businesses, the bottom line is still the bottom line.
