Any good union member will concur that they always rely on union rules to guide them through lifes more difficult saturations. This next story is a good example of how things got so screwed up in Detroit due to 'rules' fixation.
Union Rules & Hookers
A dedicated Teamsters union worker was attending a convention in Las Vegas and decided to check out the local brothels. When he got to the first one, he asked the Madam, ' Is this a union house? ' 'No,' she replied, ' I'm sorry it isn't. ' 'Well, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get? ''The house gets $80 and the girls get $20,' she answered.
Offended at such unfair dealings, the union man stomped off down the street in search of a more equitable, hopefully unionized shop. His search continued until finally he reached a brothel where the Madam responded,' Why yes sir, this is a union house. ' We observe all union rules.'
The man asked,' And if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?' 'The girls get $80 and the house gets $20.' 'That's more like it!' the union man said. He handed the Madam $100, looked around the room, and pointed to a stunningly attractive green-eyed blonde .
'I'd like her,' he said. 'I'm sure you would, sir, said the Madam. Then she gestured to a 92-year old woman in the corner,' and said, 'but Ethel here has 67 years seniority and according to union rules, she's next.'
Now you know what's wrong with the AUTO industry
And why they got a BAILOUT!
