We have to call their bluff from time to time and remind the management that without us, none of their shit works. When we down tools its not like they can pick them up and get the show back on the road.

Kinda sad this is what it comes down to that they can't be reasoned with like humans. I'd be looking for a new place to work.

"I can grab any piece of shit off the street and replace you in 20 seconds." Is what most of them think when it comes to meat machine labor like myself. :(
