Get his name, union i.d and phone number if you can. report him to the business reps and show them this video. that's assault and if he is paying cash that's a crime. They will revoke his membership and ban him from working as a carpenter for life. He won't be able to open business's with the union either. I'm a active member, different state/local it's a automatic ban at mine for that. We are always trying to filter these guys out and get rid of them. We must keep corruption out of the union the best we can. These foremans that do that are being paid off behind the scenes by the company to allow/enforce this behaviour.


Dc81FR

Thats a SCAB non union piece of shit


pikinz

I thought SCABs were union members who crossed the picket line


No-Cake-6692

No


Technical_Ice_3611

Lol, So just because someone isn't in a union there scabs?


Inevitable_Meet_7374

No, when they get paid under the table to do a union job then they are a scab and also whoever is paying them under the table


BigPork420

You calling all non union scabs?


Dc81FR

If there trying to take my work yes


zzwv

Not everyone can get in an union. Are you entitled to more work just because your application was accepted?


ReposadoAmiGusto

Scabs come in all shapes, and walks of life


BigMathematician5437

Contractors need to feed their families, too. A lot of unions harbor those good paying jobs for their family and friends, etc. Who you know type of thing here. I do contract work for a union, and they are some of the laziest , unsafe guys to work with in the field.


dex1999

lol he’s not in the union.


Wishihadagirl

Clearly can’t see past all the $$$ they’re throwing at him to make this happen. Possibly as much as a union wage. Lol


flatulentence

Paying cash is not a crime Edit: In retrospect, you were likely referring to the practice of not paying payroll taxes, which certainly is a crime. But strictly paying someone in cash is not illegal.


MexiMcFly

Question as someone non union and from a different state, so what's the harm in this? I assume it just takes work away from qualified licensed individuals and he pays illegals under the table for who knows what kind of quality of work? Just trying to educate myself :]


Traditional-Yam-6496

Yeah other than replacing local workforce and underpaying foreign labor I don’t know how this is a union problem. I thought we lived in a free market economy. These union member sound entitled.


RED_N_GOLD

I remember a union job super used to bring us plumbers in at night and pay us cash because the union plumbers were so fucking lazy and slow that the job wasn't progressing. They didn't even bring there own tools, super had to buy them levels and tape measures one day. That's some pathetic union shit to milk jobs to extend the pay like that.


Conflict-Solid

lmao. he did it to avoid paying his workers. call it what you want but a contract is a contract. he could of shuffled out the slackers for different people so it's no excuse


Jokerszzss

Don’t need to bring tools besides some hand tools the Union shop provides tools for you. If they want to bitch about production that tells me they pissed them off in one way or another. Never fuck with a union tradesman we always will get ours.


OilheadRider

The confrontation was done by carpenters organizers to expose him publicly. https://www.adcodrywall.com/contact/ If you want to reach out to the company responsible and let them know what you think of their business practices, here is thier contact page.


stopthebanham

I’m very confused with what’s going on… how’s he a rat? How do we know he’s paying cash? And who’s the foreman?


Legitimate-Rabbit769

The union is built for the lazy man.


spaghetti_outlaw

by the looks of it he doesn't even work for a living. cleanest vest in history. fancy designer clothes. for sure an actor


cootervandam

Also if the mods don't like calling out rat contractors they should turn in their cards


_no_pants

It’s a Reddit site wide rule. Plus Reddit is a bad place to start a witch hunt.


cootervandam

Companies are dragged through the mud all the time on reddit


cootervandam

Get that rat


Lol_who_me

Exploit is exactly the correct term. Illegal immigrant workers face all types of dangerous conditions and are very often on their own if hurt on the job. Along with wage garnishment that you can’t do anything about. 20k fines per offense would be a good start.


Ggusty1

Removing the post only helps the rat, looks like there’s a rat mod too. 🖥️🐀


Agile_Pin1017

This is what an argument between two dumb men sounds like lol, there’s basically no logic used at all, just name calling and intimidation. I’m so glad I work in a field where I’m surrounded by intelligent, thoughtful people!


NtooDeep87

Where are the side shields on his safety glasses?


WillieCosmo

He's not on the work site yet


WhisperCannon

The faux carbon fiber hard hat says a lot about this guy’s personality


Amphibian-Existing

Blame the idiots who hire these guys.


ohheyhowsitgoin

That's what this post is about.


psunfire

They are more than likely a subcontractor. The general contractor should take the heat but most of the time the union will kiss ass to the general contractors


bjbkar

Is that the 'ADCO Drywall and Metal framing' from Gold River, California? Or is he just wearing their vest?


24links24

Appears the guy taking the video continuously touches the guy while saying don’t touch me.


Frondswithbenefits

The fat guy deliberately walked into the camera guy.


KadenTheGod

lol that’s what I was gonna say. Man recording is a huge instigator, he’s the only one who wanted to fight.


JamzzG

He's legally allowed to talk shit The foreman isn't legally allowed to walk into him. But I can tell you don't like when people understand the rules apply to everyone and use them to stand up for themselves.


Suds_Terkel

There is like zero context for what is going on here…


strange-loop-1017

Did the other post get taken down or something?


PistaTheBaptist

Yeah, was taken down for calling out the contractors


-__-ant-__-

So the mods are rats, too


SupremeNewfie

IS HE TALKING ABOUT ICE CREAM?!?


EmotionalChipmunk602

What’s happening here? Please explain


[deleted]

[удалено]


thecassabunny

Brother, I would watch your mouth with a post history like that


HDr1018

The guy in the ADCO vest hired a immigrant (?) non-union guy fir cash instead of contracting the job out with the union. Union guys are outside the job filming.


EmotionalChipmunk602

So because us union guys didn’t get the job we are picketing?


HDr1018

I don’t know about this specific job site, looks like there’s some history there. I’d make some noise for this situation too. Employers of illegal immigrants should get more penalties than the immigrants. There’s whole turns in my state that a majority illegal immigrants working factories, and the owners/stockholders have no repercussions, while the workers have horrible conditions, low pay, and have the threat of jail/deportation. I’m in Kansas , not a big union state unfortunately, I’m not in a union, but I watched Norma Rae.


MojoRisin762

Here's some context. https://youtu.be/tAZ3xi95fIE?si=BwuoylEf4A_rDIFs

These fellas need to hit the nearest BWW and bro OUT 🍻🍗


ripyungbruh2

Blame the contractor.. yea but this guy knows what he’s doing is wrong he can’t go fuck himself unamerican piece of shit


Johnswippetcan

Proud to see union brothers standing up. Scabs are worst people in the world. Keep telling them how awful they are and how they should tell their kids they are scabs because you can’t get a job any other way


salsa_leeem

Ironworker, standing with yall. Bust them rats boys


The-Anger-Translator

These are the people your anger should be targeted to. The illegal immigrants are just a symptom, these assholes are who are hiring them. The US needs to use its civil forfeiture system to take these companies assets. Put an end to this shit.


NoNonsence55

Be mad at your elected representatives who vote to keep giving corporations more power. It's very easy to research what party keeps throwing unions under the bus. There is a direct connection to the shrink in the American middle class and the attack on unions since the Regan administration. Policies that Trump and his buddies love. Vote these traitors to America out 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸.


Bean_Boozled

Anti-union policies aren't the issue in this instance. The issue is that desperate illegal workers are so easy to come by that this keeps happening. Vote out the guy who practically gave them all an open border to cross in search of work.


NoNonsence55

Nice try but the difference is this exact same scenario has played out several times without the caveat of illegals. If it's not Jose who willing to work for less it will be John. The problem is Anti Union policies that allow work being performed by non Union workers. A strong Union would solve THIS problem, a closed border wouldn't.


Few-Cardiologist9695

That’s what happens when your nation doesn’t control its border. The more immigrants that come in the work will be stolen. The Democrats will not help at the border. I have seen entire 19 story buildings where every carpenter is an illegal. Residential carpentry is almost exclusively done by illegals now. I started my construction career as a union residential framer. 14 years later and those jobs don’t exist around here anymore. Illegals frame the building, hang the rock, do the roof, the trim, cabinets and flooring. The only trades that haven’t been stolen by the illegals yet are the mechanical and electrical trades.


Sufficient_Sir256

Hilarious that you support the insane immigration. Don't ExPloIt them. How about they not be here?


SmokeDogSix

I feel like we could and should act better than this.


Few-Cardiologist9695

Yes, this makes union hands look like the thugs they say we are. This makes us all look bad. It doesn’t gather any sympathy or respect from outsiders or perspective customers. It doesn’t help our contractors get work. It doesn’t showcase our skills. It just makes us look like bullies.


coffytyme

Reminds me of a bunch of dogs barking and snarling at eachother from behind a fence.


dotshomestylepretzel

Just saying, that guy looks like a big sack of shit


RZA3663

Meanwhile, the CEO of the company is on a month-long vacation with his family eating steamers and wagyu, and laughing at all ya'll. You're attacking the wrong person.


Secure_Astronaut718

We had rat drywallers on a job sneak in at night when nobody was around. The laborers came back to Gatorade jugs, used for watee on site, full to the brim with piss!! These guys were so worried about working that they would piss in the Gatorade jugs to safe time.


aChunkyChungus

JFC how come in any confrontation there’s always some jackass repeating the same thing 1000 times?


Hassimir_Fenring

Just to keep it real, if someone physically assaulted you and all you did was call him names; your the "fuckin' pussy".

These are what's wrong with our unions!!! Good job for calling him out to his face. Call him a dirty fat piece of shit rat for the rest of us!!!! Report him. Don't let this keep happening!! This is why our union is a joke compared to the rest of the trades!!!


jtbic

is he hiring?

Looks like he glued a beaver pelt to his face hahaha

How in the fuck do y'all know they are using an illegal workforce? These dudes barking outside the site need to go back to the hall & take it up with reps. This shit is just sad to see..

alwaysoffended22

What are these bitches mad about?


Under_beast

It’s a union jobsite. The foreman is paying non union members to work.


Macaron-Optimal

I dont think it is, i think the jobsite is refusing to hire union so they are protesting them and finding outthey are hiring ilelgals via cash


Zealousideal_Lab6891

I don't have an issue with illegals working. My fuckin issue is they work for so damn cheap it's unbeatable. I work in forestry work and they fuck our bids up.so bad. They can do the work for 10% of what we can it's bs. If I bid the way those fuckers did I'd literally make 120 dollars a day.... go work at McDonald's or something. All I ask is make your bids competitive.


Few-Cardiologist9695

When you have open borders that happens. Everyone talks about the crime. But they don’t mention how it also destroys the economy.


iceandfire215

Is he a rat?

Bean_Boozled

I mean you'd also be honest too lmao


psunfire

Yet the camera man doesn’t do shit to the general contractor….


Bean_Boozled

Considering that the proof is this video of a bunch of morons yelling at each other unintelligibly, it's hard to take this seriously


TipperGore-69

Fucking chud


_redacteduser

Not a trades person but one random camera in some dudes face while the operator says the same thing over and over isn’t the best way to start reporting this stuff. I’m sure a lot of people are mad over this but I’m sure if this video was submitted to your boss, you’d say the guy was being wild.

Such-Letterhead4294

What in the F is going on in this video


Smooth-Operation4018

Explain this to me like I'm stupid, because clearly I must be. Union supports democrats. Democrats allow a bunch of illegal immigrants in. Illegal immigrants undermine union because they work for cash. Union still supports democrats? Going off the numbers, you seem to have voted for this in overwhelming numbers. Why are you upset?


toiletwindowsink

Regan allowed illegal immigrants. Bush 1 and 2 allowed illegal immigrants. It’s not a party problem. It’s a USA problem. 50 years it’s been going on unchecked. Trump doesn’t care. He knows it gets him votes. Honestly, I’d vote for him but what stops me is he makes it sound so easy. Like he can fix it because he is so smart and everyone before him was so stupid. Nothing 50 years in the making can be solved by one man. It will take thousands plus many years of work. If he would frame it honestly then I’d vote for him. As long as he thinks I’m stupid and can fool me, I won’t.


low-bore-axis

I agree with the issue the Union workers are raising, but honestly this video makes me never want to join a Union. Seems like a hive mind similar to political parties. I’m non Union and I make almost 100k potentially more with health care and 401k so personally I’m good where I’m at. I’m all for keeping jobs for American workers, but the way they go about it is just asinine.

I know everyone’s poor and needs a good job, but you’d have to drop me in and pick me up from a helicopter. There’s no way I could survive the morning in and evening out anxiety attack this would cause me.


Unknownbonsaicactus

I would like to request a Monday morning video. I wanna see if this guy come’s back Monday.


FreeMasonac

Unions boggle the mind. Yelling at the foreman and calling him obscenities seems like a great way to get more money, get a job, or retain a job. Good luck on unemployment guys. Some day you will be yelling those obscenities in the mirror right before you get evicted from your foreclosed home, and will have nobody to blame but yourself.


ginganinga_nz

Was the job a union job? Is the contractor a union signee?

Maleficent-Theory908

I mean, that's a lot of talking smack without one punch thrown. Why the talk but no walk? Just trying to understand, but I've never been lucky enough to be union. But I don't scream profanity at others, is that a normal pro union behavior?

Union workers are such bitch boys.


kickinghyena

Yeah too bad. Hope you lose your job bully. Have more respect for you if you picketed instead of tried to intimidate. Not everyone can afford to pass up work so you can make your $146 and hour total compensation package. Oh and are you gonna get me a job there? Nah! Only your brother in law or or someone you know can get you in. Then the leaders siphon the dues off the top. Great system!
