The same self involved clerk with a grandiose personality, who cries every time he is pulled from his clerk position!

My guess is to divert negative focus off themselves. So why don"t we discuss them?

Hosted by Back to Google NewsBiden says unions are way to rebuild middle class
By SAM HANANEL – 3 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden, making a renewed pitch for a major change in labor law, told union leaders Tuesday that the best way to rebuild the middle class is to help labor unions grow.
Biden said it's time to "level the playing field" for unions by passing a bill that would make it easier for workers to organize.
"You've got to climb up a hill with so many roadblocks on the way to organize that it's just out of whack," Biden told a conference of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has about 1.6 million members.
"If a union is what you want, then a union is what you should get," Biden said.
The Employee Free Choice Act — also known as "card check" — is organized labor's top priority this year, but business groups are adamantly opposed. It would allow a majority of workplace employees to sign cards to join a union instead of holding secret ballot elections.
Senate lawmakers are working on a compromise version of the measure that will satisfy some moderate Democrats that have concerns about the bill. Democratic leaders need to garner 60 votes in the Senate to overcome an expected GOP attempt to filibuster.
Biden pointed out the difference between public sector employees, where 37 percent belong to unions, compared to the private sector, where just 7.5 percent of workers carry union cards. He said federal, state and municipal employees face fewer barriers to organization, while managers in the private sector use "every trick in the book" to undermine unions.
Biden said he and President Barack Obama would not consider their economic recovery efforts a success unless growth creates "good, sustainable, livable jobs in the process." A key element, he said, is rebuilding the American labor movement, which has steadily declined since the 1950s.
"We will not consider it a success unless the middle class is growing, taking a piece of that productivity," Biden said.
Biden chairs Obama's middle class task force, which evaluate policies and recommend ways to boost middle-class families.
Business groups that oppose the organizing bill say workers would be subject to union intimidation without secret ballot elections. They are also concerned about a provision that would let government arbitrators set a contract if workers and management cannot agree on a first collective bargaining agreement within 120 days.
Keith Smith, a spokesman for the National Association of Manufacturers, called the bill "a power grab by union bosses seeking to inflate union membership by skewing the careful balance of our labor law system that has worked well for more than half a century."
Katie Packer, head of the pro-business Workforce Fairness Institute, noted that the bill has been losing ground with Senate Democrats. Sens. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., have said they won't support the bill without significant changes, though both have been involved in compromise talks.
"With unemployment increasing and more Americans looking for work, we agree with President Obama that the bigger problem is there aren't any jobs to unionize," Packer said.

CONCORD, N.H.—New Hampshire police and firefighters would have to work an extra five years before collecting retirement benefits under a bill before the Senate.
Discuss
COMMENTS ()
Workers hired after July 1 would need 25 years on the job instead of 20 before collecting benefits. The House-passed bill also would raise the minimum retirement age from 45 to 50, but the Senate proposes deleting the age requirement.
Fiscal conservatives are supporting the bill. Police and fire unions had objected, arguing the changes would harm older members who can't meet the physical demands of the work.

Giving Sick Days More Respect
Sean kelly
To go to work or stay home when sick.
When my daughter had a runny nose and sore throat this week, it might have been the result of allergies or just a mild cold. But it felt wrong to send a coughing-sneezing-runny-nosed kid into a classroom, so I kept her home.
Workers faced with cold, flu or other symptoms of illness must decide for themselves whether to go to the office or take a sick day. It’s an issue explored by Dr. Anne Marie Valinoti in today’s Cases column.
Of all the sins an intern or resident could commit, the worst was to call in sick, for it meant somebody else would have to do your work — extra patients to admit, phone calls to make, IVs to insert, emergencies to deal with. As a resident, my greatest pride was in never having missed a day for illness. I’d drag myself in and sniffle and cough through the day. Once, I’m embarrassed to admit, I trudged up York Avenue to the hospital making use of my own personal motion sickness bag every few blocks while horrified pedestrians looked on.
Now, though, I see the foolishness of this bravura. And I confront it almost daily in my primary care practice. No one can miss a day — a minute, even — of work, carpooling, volunteering, vacation, anything. “I don’t have time to be sick!” my patients wail. Everyone must soldier on, leaving sick days to those with less important things to do.
But in the midst of the swine flu scare, it’s time to give sick days more respect. Read the full column, “Do Everybody a Favor: Take a Sick Day,” and then please join the discussion below. Are you guilty of showing up to work when you should have stayed home? How do you feel about colleagues who refuse to take sick days?

From the front page of the Globe, just a little taste:
The unions that haven't settled - the Massachusetts Nurses Association and the State Police Association of Massachusetts - traditionally get more generous contracts, according to lawmakers and union officials.
Administration officials also pointed out that health costs are likely to increase for almost all state employees starting next year. Patrick proposed increasing their 15 percent contributions to 20 percent or 25 percent, depending on their salaries.
