union job

1. A way to pretend people who do no work whatsoever are employed while really just sitting around with their thumbs up their asses and sucking on the dole.

2. A "job" that people can't be fired from even if they never actually do any work.
Union Employee:
Dude, let's go fishin today and drink beers.

Non-union Employee:
I don't know about you, but I have to work.

Union Employee:
Fuck that. You need a union job.

Soviet Union

Greatest world power that ever existed. And all of you who say otherwise should go and read up a bit more before you open your mouth. Russia reppeled Germans twice (WW1 & WW2)plus it also defended the armenians against the genocide attempted by the turks and I am not even going to get into another countless disputes it settled.
It fell because of one pussy named Gorbichov who gave in to the capitalists. If the soviet union would still be here today it would be by far the strongest country/union in the world.
Just because you think Soviet Union was "evil" doesn't make it even close to the truth. Today some countries hate america and think it is an "anti-god" country, but that isn't true either... I admit it had some flaws but who doesn't? Just look at America's current president. National treasure? Think not...
But what it really comes down to is this: Some people just could never understand anothers point of views and vise versa and just bluntly argue their own biased opinions.

Soviet Union

Soviet Union | History

The best country in the entire world, the Soviet Union was created in 1922 after Russia pulled out of WWI. The Soviet Union consisted of 15 republics, and after being yeeted by NATO, they died in a hole.

Soviet Union | Ideology

The whole place was controlled by the Communist Party. Communism meant everyone was equal. An anesthesiologist and a McStalin's worker got the same wage. Everyone was spayed or neutered so EVERYONE could be equal. That's why the population was dropping so fast.

Soviet Union | WWII

In WWII, the Soviet union and Germany had a conference. Here is the context.
Hitler: Hey, let's ************ Poland.

Soviet Union: Oh yeah yeah
But then Germany killed Soviet Union, so Soviet Union raped half of Germany.
Vladimir: Hey don't you like the Soviet Union
Citizen 284736593: No
Vladimir: Shit I can't murder you because Communism!

[union]

The downfall of the American automobile industry and quite possibly the downfall of American aerospace (those that exist in states where unions are mandatory). A lame excuse for unskilled and uneducated people to earn high wages, guaranteed wage increases and health benefits for little or no work done in a day.
Salaried employee walks around production plant and notices union worker riveting side metal panel.

2hrs later:
Still riveting same panel, same hole (now with a ghetto blaster blaring in the background)

unionspeak

The act of talking up work in such a way so as to convince others that many more union members are necessary to complete a task that a single non-union employee could accomplish solo. Such logic makes sense only to union workers themselves, contractor scum and those that they dupe.

Also applies when demanding irrational compensation for minimal effort. Principally centered around lavish health care plans, pensions and early subsidized retirements.
Boss - "Why does it take six of you to screw in that light bulb?"

Union worker exemplifying unionspeak- "People have grown accustomed to a certain level of service with six of us. We'd be putting everyone's life at risk with any fewer. We need one guy to hold and screw in the light bulb, one to put up and take down the ladder, one to carry the bulb screwer up the ladder, one to wipe the ladder dude's brow and two to catch anybody that may fall."

Boss - "That sounds like unionspeak to me. Randy in accounting says he changes them by himself all the time at home. Maybe I can just have him do it..."

Union worker - "That's a big risk. What if he fell, who'd catch him? What if the new bulb went out unexpectedly? Would Randy know what to do? Would you? You're putting lives at risk. We've never had an accident, not counting the bulb screwer's carpal tunnal. We've trained our whole careers for situations just like this. Now piss off. My union brothers and I are on our break."
