There has been a 40000000% increase in friendly jordies references to football over the past month, which of course amounts to 2 whole references, as 4000000000000 x 0 = 2, and as such, I am thrilled, and I have pledged my signature to the contract of the Friendly Jordies United Union incorporated. Thankyou. I am greatly annoyed that both of these references have been Sydney Swans footballers. I'm sure this has nothing to do with the fact Sydney was in the grand final, or that it's September, and the grand final is played in September. Of course I don't have to tell you that, Jordan, an avid football fan such as yourself would have that day pencilled in for drinks with da boiz from January. In any case, this will be brought up at the first Union sausage sizzle, of which there will not really be any sausage sizzle, because, in true communist fashion, I will eat all the sausages. No sausages for anyone else. That is all, good day.

As a wharfie myself who went through EA negotiations, protected action and strikes a few years back pre Covid. The media, the company and government used the same play book as this time saying we were withholding medical supplies. We told them to let us know the box numbers and we will get those specific boxes off the wharf. Absolute crickets, there was no medical supplies that were stuck.

You're also under the delusion that stating that the death of the 18 year old as a "little civil suit" shouldn't receive any reaction or criticism (I can't tell if you're being a stupidCunt or you just don't have empathy) And lastly, that wasn't even his assumption and the topics of fines for the protest wasn't even tied to the quote, that came from WaleedCunt addressing the kids death.

I've worked manufacturing, retail and now construction across multiple states. Never felt I needed the union. Then got on a large commercial job and wholly shit. The company directors sacked all middle managment. When it rained site managers sat in their site office while all site staff kept working in the rain on a suspended deck with live edges. Needless to say when I saw this I went to management to voice my concerns, the OHS officer told me to fuck off. I took myself off site and never went back. I joined the union.

For anyone who thinks it was an honest slip of the tongue, remember that these are the people who watched a clip of a man talking about the critical damage done to the Murray Darling, ignored everything he was saying and laughed when he threw up from the stench of thousands of dead fish. These people are repugnant, they're truly morally vacuous. It was a Freudian slip, not an innocent one.

Maybe people should stand up for themselves. A union should be helpful for the legal issues, but a union made up of spineless members will not achieve anything. You're looking for a saviour not a union and that's why you have issues. I and a handful of others individually stood up for ourselves and got ourselves better pay. The rest of the workers got nothing because they did nothing and the union didn't even care to try to get anything for anyone. Why are you doing things without challenging the boss? I have never once been threatened with any penalty for standing up for myself. Others have been fired for doing it, but i and others would justify our actions. The ones who were fired were lazy and refusing to work without justification. If you're good at your job, i don't believe there is much risk in standing up for yourself but i haven't worked in your type of industry.

sorry for long text, I have a story about the crazy shit that happened working at one of the Aldi warehouses in Sydney I used to work at the Aldi warehouse out at Prestons in west Sydney for a couple of years back in 2015 - they pushed us so hard with some new 'improvements' to the shift in my last few months there - myself and 4 other people hurt their back in some way and had to go on compo - this was within the first month of these new changes - the other workers bullied us because they saw us as weak simply because we had the balls to respect our health and seek compensation for the unsafe working conditions - that's some hard indoctrination, crazy shit our managers in the warehouse were constantly pushing for more, and when people's bodies started breaking, they would just push more and more and more. there was a lady working there in her 40s and she would wear some little compression band on one of her wrists (her arm was swelling massively, it looked pretty gross and scary as shit) while she would lift about a *tonne* of produce in about 4 hours, as that was considered a light workload for the day (a couple of hours before and after lunch, they were short but intense shifts). the sickest part of the situation is that she felt some dogged loyalty to the job and would never consider for a moment that she was being exploited - she was grateful for the poor working conditions, she was grateful for anything, and the suits fckng knew it - she looked down on me when I went for the compo, and I don't blame her, that's a crazy perspective she had, and I bet she's still there 7 years later what was their reasoning, the suits in the office? they fired some people to cut costs, moved our shift forward an hour which gave us 1 hour less to get the job done, with less space to work in, and then would give us super cringe motivational speeches about taking on the 'challenge' to get get an impossible job done with less people, less space, less time etc (literally less space as we were driving these little pallet fork lifts around a tiny warehouse space in a freezer) I shit you not, this crazy suit lady would come in and talk down to us, she did it many times using the 'challenge yourself' speech, and I can tell you that most people were fckng terrified of her - meanwhile most of the suits had their brand new audi cars in the carpark (easily 50 of these), and they were notorious for having coke parties during the christmas season while we had the busiest time of the year I feel so so so sorry for people who think so little of themselves that they will happily grind their body to dust in poor working conditions - I don't have anything against the aldi company, it's those fuckers in the office at that warehouse that are super happy to grind away their workers to reach some impossible targets, they don't care - the job was basically impossible before they cut our workers, space, and time - crazy shit, take care of yourselves out there - also once there was a gas leak and they had us back in there working BEFORE they had genuinely confirmed that it wasn't the poisonous gas (there are different gases in the freezers) - me and another guy walked out that day because we couldn't believe it, but again, most people were too scared to stand up for themselves remember, if you die, they'll have a replacement for you ready before your funeral

Waleed is a dick, but that one was was pretty clearly a stumble. Not "little", but "livil". Maybe he was thinking "little civil suit" - again, the man's a dick, I'm not defending his character - but the series of sounds that escaped his mouth weren't "little civil suit", but "own livil suit, uh, civil suit". The smugness at the "rewind the tape" bit is because he's a shitheel who thought the other bloke was making a fool of himself, probably because he'd mentally dismissed the misspeak entirely, as we all tend to do while talking. The general gist of the dishonesty of the Project and others on the topic of unions is worth reporting on, but focusing on this exchange is... odd. It's a misunderstanding between two people because of a fumbled word.

This was a sad one. Here's the face of the guy doing "coverage" on the issue on national TV 16:28 .. also hint - they all wear that smirk and share the same sentiment. Walleed just lets it slip more.

I call bullshit on that's the cause of the medication shortages I'm a pharmacist and these shortages have been going on much longer than all that (literally over a year), it's more because of the Ukraine thing and shipping being limited; we also becauser of PBS have a set price we pay for drugs to keep costs from artificially inflating like the US This also leads to us being al lower relative priority (as they literally get >10 times the money by shipping it to the US), and has contributed to the shortages too, shit like antbiotics, diabetics meds, fucking ventolin (generic zempreon made by same company was short last week too) Also the shortages have been similar between states anyway, so even if it were the case; we'd see the worse shortages in NSW if this were the case (NSW colleagues from what i've heard from speaking to mates down there, it's no better or worse than supply in QLD)

So, vis a vis shortages due to PBS in Australia versus the prioritised US market... are you implying that... Capitalism is NOT a favourable mechanism to fix something like a... Pandemic, perhaps?

I've been in the CFMEU for a year now working on an EBA job and I literally make double what I used to doing less. The Shoppie on site is engaging, always asking if you're all good and even helped me clear up a discrepancy in my pay no one noticed. It's been absolutely fantastic for me and I can't speak highly enough of the Union.

Oh yeah, that’s bloody criminal. Why work overtime if you are not being paid? People have a life outside of work. It is their time, jobs can’t take away that. Most overtime is also unnecessary anyway. Once their shift is over, they have no reason to even think about work. Can’t use people like slaves and try to take away their personal/family time. Heck this grinds my gears.

Thank god someone the youngerlings might listen to, about how important unions are and have been in our history, everything from 4 weeks holidays (remember places like the states only have 2 weeks), 38 hour weeks, penalty rates etc etc. Remember now that unions have been beaten to almost non existent we have started losing penalties, 38 hour weeks, health and safety and way, way more..... I hear over and over that unions do nothing, pretty hard if they only are 9% of a workplace to get much done..... Ying and yang, balance, but its been gone for too long.

Waleed Aly whenever he disagrees with an interviewee: Margaret Court: Talked over, interrupted her and accused her of thinking she's better than everyone else.

To be fair, the sending in the military point was much more likely about sending them in to do the manual labour that wasn't being done since the workers were on strike. Think of it as closer to what they do when it comes to disaster relief than, you know, holding a gun to someone's head and forcing them to work.

I only just started working for an EBA company in construction. It pays so much better literally triple what I was making before and allot safer/cleaner where as non union sites pay minimum wage, rip u off and treat u like a dog. I would rather be unemployed than go back to a non unionized site.
