They are their political master's voice and get to work only when multitudes scoot from work. Disruption is child's play for them. The success of these pied pipers lies in leading as many PS staffs out of office as possible. What a respectable vacation! Sure, there were many true, self-less champions of labour in both public and private sector till about the eighties but their collective halo has slipped since. Today,many Union leaders behave like pseudo-dons and intimidation is their chief weapon. Also in their arsenal is bluff, the biggest being their claim to the power of collective bargaining. No law recognizes any Union, much less its leader, as the official rep for a group of PS employees, yet they prevail....and prosper. And unlike those they purport to serve, they never retire or tire!
