Hip-hop hot shot Jay-Z is getting hammered by carpenters for using nonunion labor for the facelift of his Manhattan club 40/40.

But the carpenters union, which erected five inflatable rats outside the Chelsea joint this week, has gone too far by shouting the N-word at management, according to Jay-Z's rep.

"The union is trying to bully 40/40 to hire union workers. They were shouting racial slurs. It was really inappropriate protesting," said Lauren Menache, a spokeswoman for the Brooklyn-born singer.

[GigantorX]

Pathetic, they think they are entitled to get every job, get every dollar and fuck whoever gets in their way.

They've gone from an apparatus that protects workers rights and such to a gang of idiot thugs.

[The True Adonis]

Hopefully this will put an end to his shitty music.

Real.

[ManBearPig...]

I've had more trouble with union workers then anyone else. I cannot blame Jay Z one bit. I try to stay away from union workers as much as I possibly can.

be careful, tdongz will come in here and call you an idiot because you're not helping someone provide for their family of four.

Hey Tim,

I used the Sous Vide machine last night and made the best Steak I have ever eaten.  I am in love with this thing!!!!!   Let me ask you about Garlic.  I didn`t use any as I think raw garlic once in the bath would not be so great as I think it needs the benefit of the Maillard Reaction in order to not overpower any meat.  130 just did not seem to me to be enough to coax the flavor I was looking for from Garlic for my Steak.

Do you ever Sous Vide garlic with any meats and do you Roast it first?

i wonder what industry unions have fucked up most in this country, public education, car manufacturing, skilled labor, agriculture

[Doug_Steele]

I enjoyed being in the union for the years at UPS.  I did hate the people who took advantage of being in a union.

yes me too, i loved making $8.50 an hour with no benefits of any kind and paying $50/month to "union fees".   

[240 is Back]

h to the izzo, u to the nion.

[Doug_Steele]

yes me too, i loved making $8.50 an hour with no benefits of any kind and paying $50/month to "union fees".   

I had benefits while working there part time and making way more than 8:50 a hour. You got fucked, son.  I was there years ago and was making $13-14 a hour and skill pay for working the tower. You must have been a unloader or a loader. 

[SF1900]

Unions can be a good thing. They ensure pay raises,vacation time and health coverage etc
But there is no need for racial slurs.

[The True Adonis]

How can anyone be against Onions?  I eat them all the time.

[calfzilla]

X2. Union is the way to go

[King Shizzo]

h to the izzo, u to the nion.

I see what u did thar

[Tito24]

All of the above, especially public education and the civil service

yeah, loader, but it was a one year gig senior year in high school.  very motivating to stay in school after that.

[Doug_Steele]

Fuck that Noise.  I did it for a month and got moved to the slide, but, yes, it was very motivating to stay in school and get a degree. I still have friends there after years who do not make shit.....but cry because they do not make any money.
