AH , lets see here I was a union operating engineer (was) and i got screwed when they had a union split they gave everybody two months that wanted to change there book . NICE i was playen in the bush across the pond getting shot at while this was going on . YOUR SUPPOSE TO BE guaranteed your job while serving yea wright i was NOT allowed to go back to MY JOB as a class A operating engineer with the new hall and return to work with the company that i worked for BEFORE i went into the service , but i could rejoin the new hall and come back in as a ClASS D oiler and start from the bottom of the pile and work when they wanted me to . Went to the VA and was told there was nothing they could do as it was UNION . Then we tryed being a TEAMSTER yep that went well. Had the pleasure of being in charge of and Oil Field company years later where i was in charge of the trucks and dozers ( non union) , In the oil patch there is NO starting time and NO quieting time ya work rain or shine hot or cold . When it pouring and mud up to your eye balls that is when they needed dozers it was a 24 -7 job . Along come the Operating engineers Union boys as they are going to take over the OIL patch and place UNION operators on the dozers but they will only work WHEN IT IS NOT RAINING , AND OLNY FROM 7 TO 3:30 and anything over 40 hours is over time and double time on Sundays and Holidays and we will also have to have and oiler for each piece of equipment .NOT That did not go well for them even when they tried there strong arm tactics that the oil field boys played a little rougher yea they did destroy two dozers but they had about a dozen of there goons in the hospitle . So i can believe that the line crews did run into problems with the union / Mafia of the east coast . Just go to the docks with a semi and see what your allowed to or not to do .

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
