Stupid is what stupid does
Stupid is what stupid posts.
WOW-Three SPEND SISTERS all in the same place. Don’t they know STUPID is forever and these guys were STUPID enough to give up good paying jobs and now they want sympathy.
I don’t know if you can tell the difference between a LOCK OUT and a strike, because these guys are locked out. They never gave up their jobs, they got LOCKED OUT of those jobs.
PS. I’m in that photo, and you can goto hell.
John’s right….they are LOCKED OUT. Not on strike.
these are not victims. She should ask why in a hard economy, why they gave their jobs away?
