Well, it's obvious you are a pro-union hack, so whatever I post will go through your head and won't get slowed down, but.... I put in 8 months at a factory that was unionized. You had the choice becoming union or non-union. I was non-union and, to their credit, the union members didn't really give me any flack about being non-union. The union did NOTHING to help working conditions for anybody. However, I will give them credit for shutting the local factory down because of all the whining and complaining that they did to the national owners. But, to all the people who say that the union was the one who gave us the 40-hour work week, I regularly put in 60+ hours a week. Matter-of-fact, the last 21 days that I worked there, I had to work 20 of them and every day was a minimum of 12.5 hours, but regularly was 14 hours a day. My wife still refers to this job where I was either at work or sleeping. Wages were not great, so the union was of no help there. BTW, the job was for the company that has the name of a state and the name of our west coast ocean in it. I now work for a company that gives me a work truck, buys the gas that I need to drive to and from work, has a family atmosphere, and if needed, I have no problem getting a day off. Oh yea, much to your shock, it's non-union.

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
