I can't remember how many workers that I know who have been able to keep their jobs because they worked under a collective bargaining agreement with a just cause provision. I do know that I have handled hundreds of calls where I have had to tell someone who has lost a job that the reasons they were fired would not stand up under just cause, but that absent a contract, it is not illegal for an employer to be unfair, stupid, arbitrary - and even discriminatory, so long as it is not for the wrong reason. BTW, it's not illegal to discriminate on the basis of ink, piercing, hair length, beard, of just being unattractive.
Regards,
D-Ray

Which is why you'll rarely see a really ugly successful person.

It's your fault if the government has no morals. This country is getting exactly the government it deserves. Because it continues to vote the same people into office year after year...and at the same time it complains that all of them should be thrown out.
This country is getting exactly the government it deserves because the electorate is too fucking stupid, too fucking busy, too fucking lazy to educate itself about how the government works, and too fucking lazy to take five minutes to listen to any of the issues at hand. It's too fucking easy to listen to Sean Hannity ragging about Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers and birth certificates, or Rachel Maddow ragging about the GOP's war against women.
My fear is that there are way, way too many Americans like you finding it so easy to blame everything on "this government"...when it's our own fucking fault. Want to rag at somebody DJ? Quit ragging at Obama and go knock on your fat-ass neighbor's door and tell him your sick of him being a lazy-ass Joe Fucking Sixpack who doesn't have to invest 10 minutes of his time in a half-assed attempt to be an educated and informed member of the electorate. See how far that get's ya.

Well Harper's bunch I might agree with you on.

I blame you for loving government so much.
Save your B.S. lectures for someone else who wants more government.

I was talking about our government. 
I have a couple of properties south of Woodpoint on Route 935. I think one might have sold yesterday though. The last one is right on the Route. It has power on three sides, perked good, & has deeded beach access down a private (dirt) road.
Edit: It's about 1.5 acres.
