Re: McConnell Stepping Down From Leadership in November

As far as I am concerned nobody should hold office past 75. And from 65 on they need to take yearly cognitive tests on live TV.

Re: Question for Turkey Top

I would say there are no firm "rules" about what can go in to a CBA.
In our current CBA drivers hired before the ratification get paid more than drivers hired after the ratification.

Re: MSU v UM Take 2 tomorrow

I have had a hard time giving two shits about Michigan basketball since Gail Goodrich lit them up for 42 points in the 1965 title game.
I was all about Magic beating Bird in 1979.

Re: The Trump trial is already a shit show

Admit? The guy has been in 4000+ lawsuits in his life before politics. Almost half those lawsuits were Trump casinos suing gamblers who didn't pay off their line of credit. Some number of the rest also were Trump suing somebody else for damages rather than being sued. So 4000 suites isn't the relev...

Re: 50th Anniversary of Streaking Fad

Years ago at UM there was an end of year streaking fad down South U.
Eventually the authorities put an end to it by threatening to make arrests and put people on the sex offender registry.

I think the Lions will get to the Super Bowl. The Ravens will crush them there, but let's enjoy just getting there.

Re: Right to work ends Tuesday (13th)

Sure. You got Union representation without paying any dues if your workplace had a union. It was designed to bankrupt the unions by making them spend money that wasn’t put into it. Actually you got the CBA benefits but NOT union represntation. If you had a dispute with management the union is under...

Re: Right to work ends Tuesday (13th)

Is any portion of Ann Arbor bus drivers in a union? School districts might outsource an entire function (like cafeteria services) as a cost save. If there is no union for you to join, not sure if the new law has to force you to join a union. We work for Durham Transportation. Teamsters local 243 is...

Starting Tuesday in Michigan if you work under a CBA and are not currently in the union that ends Tuesday. Sign up or find a new job that isn't unionized.

My understanding is that it does not apply to public govt employee unions, like teachers unions.
This is true. But Michigan is low on the Government employee per capita list. So it does potentially apply to a lot folks.
Certainly where I work because we are private sector.

Re: Toby Keith dies

Very sad to hear of his passing. It's a stretch to describe myself as even a casual fan of country music, yet I enjoyed his style of county music. He was one of several artists from the 1990s & 2000s that I thought were great, who sadly, receive only sporadic airplay at best on contemporary country...
