      Im pro union but actual teamsters are fucking idiots. Shop steward at my work has a hammer and sickle, Trump, and Teamster sticker on his bumper sticker.

      Dude, you make $38/hr plus $8/hr pension but you really want to make $14/hr like the warehouse next to us?

        I’m a school bus driver and we’re Teamsters; most of my co-workers are rabidly pro-union and just as rabidly pro-Trump. A few are even lesbians and pro-Trump. It just doesn’t make any sense, except for the fact that they’re so racist they even hate Chinese food.

        BTW our union is why we make $30 an hour plus benefits like health insurance and a pension instead of the $18 an hour with no benefits that the drivers in neighboring districts who work for private bus companies make.
