" If I went to work in a factory, the first thing I'd do would be to join a union "
This Website is dedicated to the Men and Women in the Construction Trades Unions that risk there life day after day in all kinds of weather conditions to build the Future for ourselves and our children....
My name is Marianne Rafferty and I have been an Operating Engineer for 22 years and have had this site up and running going on ten years. I have some personal insights, links to great sites, awesome personal photographs, safety tips and charts and a guest book with comments from Australia to Japan to New Zealand! It's obvious I love my career choice but it wasn't and isn't always easy. Skill, patience, education, undoubtedly experience are all needed. Getting along in a team atmosphere with 99.999% men is also important. Well , ENTER HERE if you'd like to see more! I'm Proud To Be Union It's obvious now that times are hard Our nations image is deeply scarred. The Government gives the Unions blame, And too many of us accept the shame. Instead of applying the things we've learned We take for granted what our forefathers earned. Our newest enemy is our Sister or Brother Ignorance says we fight each other. These back-stabbing people are so confused They're not Union Members, they just pay their dues. Members don't tell on their Brother, man. Or refuse to help when they know they can! It's easy to talk, to complain and cuss, But our Union's future depends on us!! We can put dignity back in our label. It won't be easy, but I know we're able. Being strong takes more than a few, It takes everyone, and that includes you!!
Let's all be proud to be UNION! Author Unknown
