Seriously!

Ugh...just finished reading an 11-page furlough document sent to the faculty from our union president. As a result i am very miffed! This is a bullshit of an idea penalizing faculty and students, as it eventually might translate to thinning of the actual teaching time by a week.

I do not like labor unions. What's the point? They are the weak representing the weaks. Ones with calibre can do without them. All they do is drag us down to the level of the rest by their stupid one for all rule and mind-numbingly lengthy back and forths. For example, because of their stupid lengthy negotiation (primarily to include the temps in the raise pool), our 4-year 25% raise got delayed by 2 years and now there ain't no money to provide for that raise. I am sure admin is laughing!

What the hell? Call me elitist or whatever, i believe in the survival of the fittest. Don't borrow my cloth to cut your coat, man.

Anyway, what do i care, i am mostly on grant money, won't really touch me financially. But they better not vote on stealing our instructional time!
