Couple of years ago a friend got fired from his union job. He's an equipment operator. He was running a backhoe on a pipe laying job in a city. They could only work nights because of traffic. The night they were supposed to finish their part of the job the pipe layers were a little behind and he was sitting on the hoe waiting to backfill the last section. He got out of the hoe and got in the trench to help the pipe layers. They finished about 15 minutes before they would have had to stop. The next night they were supposed to haul equipment out. He showed up like he was supposed to and the foreman stopped him and told him go home and report to the company office the next morning. When he got there a manager handed him his walking papers for crossing over into another unions job. One of the pipe layers had file a grievance and the easy way out for the company to settle it was to fire him. So you pro union guys tell me again how great unions are when they can get someone fired for taking initiative and doing extra work. Don't try handing me that old line about taking work away form other people. When you hire on with someone they are paying for your labor and loyalty during work hours. He really did nothing wrong. But according to the pipe layers union he was supposed to sit on that hoe doing nothing while he waited on others to finish their jobs.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
