Generally, Stelco would fight tooth and nail and three-week strike for their contract, and as soon as they had it, Dofasco would match it without anyone asking them to.And because they had lower costs still outdid Stelco without risking their own workers "voting with their feet" to Stelco or unionizing themselves. Cynical self protective "generosity".
...he replied that if they didn't like the low-paying jobs, they could vote with their feet and quit. Then starve and decrease the surplus population. I have crappy wages. I understand why the company doesn't (almost can't) increase them. But I could use more money. (who can't?). At 50 as far as most 30-something HR scumbags with all the power and buzzwords are concerned, I'm walking dead already. SURE I'm gonna walk out on my job. And SURE employers will milk that little fact for ALL I'm worth.
