We are having huge issues with the nurses at the Medical Center. Their contract has expired and they are looking for a boost. Of course the powers that be don't wanna budge. Nurse union started out asking for 25% and the hospital offered 13%. The nurses did a 2 day strike while the hospital brought in temporary nurses during that time. Then back to the table to talk some more. Now we are at 23% nurses and 15% hospital.

From the outside it seems like the hospital is greedy since the top brass is pulling in well over a million each. Would really like to see all the financial details to make an informed decision on who needs to give more. I can say that without the nurses, they might as well close up shop.
That's a nasty situation. I agree that I'd want to see more details. Including comparable numbers for other nurses in other similar areas.

Exactly. The negotiating committees are busy doing their job.
This is coming from those not directly involved in the negotiations. "We haven't had a STRIKE in awhile, so we should." Nooooo. That's NOT how its supposed to work. :facepalm:
lol, Srikes should be for when this guy takes over...

Either those gates were made of the rarest alloy on earth, or that guy is driving a $500 jalopy.

interestingly enough, with the scrap metal we've sold while upgrading the high pressure sodium lights to LEDs, that money has basically paid for the F-250 we bought for this job.

:giggle: Yes! Who cares about OSHA and MSHA (the mining safety dudes)
I've done the 20 Hr OSHA course (barely scratches the surface of OSHA)... and I can just drive by construction sites and spot violations left and right...

The stats on young men and their injuries on construction sites back you up. Tragic

So, tried to wash off all that red clay, it is in those black polymer parts deep! It might take multiple washes to get it all out.
Aerospace 303 will take care of that.

Yeah... and telling them they need to wear a harness or have any kind of fall protection usually gets you a rude response.
