NXfedRam Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 I know that it is unrelated to the Ford store itself. From what i understand, it has something to do with drywall workers that were subcontracted in on one the dealership projects. This is just what I've heard through the grapevine as I work at the ford store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the same people holding that sign in front off two different places on the same day, looks like some union pays them just to carry that sign around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOWLX Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 The people that hold the sign are not laborers they are homeless people from the shelter the company pays them to stand outside and hold the signs I deliver to places downtown(restaurants and Hotels) and know a couple people that have worked for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still kinda goes along with what I thought, people paid by the unions to just go hold the sign at whatever spot for an hour. I saw the same people go straight from St. Anns hospital to some jewelry store by Easton. Same sign, just slapped a different name on it.

Probably same people that put up signs at Cabelas. They were under bid buy a non-union construction company and the unions are mad. lol :dumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbs3000 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Multiple Dublin companies (and probably companies across the US) are suing them. It's absurd that they are allowed to exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEMAN1647545504 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Just wait till the white vans show up that say "IMIGRA" on the side. You ain't gonna see a single drywalling protestor over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybe Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 There's been one on Morse Crossing about Jared with the 'Shame on You' thing -- looked it up - apparently some sexist practice w/ Jared, women can't get ahead etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to form the "International Sign Holders Union", go offer to sign them up and tell their employer he now needs to pay them $20 and hour plus benefits, supply a porta-john on every site, etc, etc, and see how long that lasts.....
