Janitors Laid Off
This is great - SEIU campaigns hard for Obama, gives countless millions of dollars to democrats, provides tens of thousands of foot soldiers to ring bells and answer phone banks. And the pay off?
- Dozens of union airport workers were holding a prayer vigil outside Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s house on Thursday, asking him to reconsider a decision to hand custodial work at O’Hare International Airport to a new company that doesn’t use union labor.
CBS 2[...] reports the O’Hare janitors and window washers will lose their jobs in just over two weeks, when a new contractor takes over custodial work at the airport.
[...] Union custodial workers employed by Scrub, Inc., are being pushed at O’Hare out after Emanuel awarded a new janitorial contract to United Maintenance, a non-union firm.
But Rahm is pro-union. And Obama is pro-union.
How's that feeling right about now?
And that double-dip recession you hear about? Started back in July evidently. Strap in people, a rough 2013 is on tap.

love it!!!!! Don't believe them when they say they didn't support tiny dancer. Hahahahahahahhahah
And yet the dumbasses in Chicago and the state keep voting Democrat. Keep losing your jobs, your pay and pension. And give till it hurts to the parasites who live on entitlement programs for their entire lives. Sad thing is nothing will change in the next election.
We must get Rid of the Union and make the middle class the working poor, Why should I pay Union Wages when Illegals work for a lot less,Illegals are Chicagos future next year they will be able to get Drivers Licenses and compete with Union Drivers and take those Jobs Viva la Mexicago.....RHAM..
rahm doesn't care about a lowly janitor--- he rubs elbows with bigshots and spends 75,000 dollars a year to send his 3 kids to grammar school--- he doesn't have time to deal with the peasants who inhabit his kingdom---
I've always wondered how democrats can be the cause AND solution to all of our problems.
I don't feel sorry for those assholes.....they all voted for rahm & barry, teachers too.....get that 4% back yet ?
Most of us didn't vote for either one of them and they know it......we have seen how they treat their supporters.....we are fucked !
Merry Christmas!
Let the revolution begin!! Lets stop trying to prevent the fiscal fall. When food stamps and Obama phones are no longer available riots like Greece will come to the good old USA. Its coming and its inevitable!!!
You thought that Illinois was for unions because it's Democrats?
Think again.
Guys it's not Republicans vs Democrats. That propaganda is a tool to divide and conquer the middle class. It's more like political insiders vs the rest of us the outsiders.
Sounds like tin foil hat stuff to many. Nevertheless you got Quinn trying to bust out the unions. The state legislature is voting to reject any money being allocated for pay increases for 2013 for the state union employees.

Rumor Mill: Lame Duck Lawmakers Could Vote to Remove Workers from Union Rolls in January
For the past couple of years, Governor Quinn has pushed for the legislature to pass legislation ending the hard-fought rights of many state employees to join a union. Quinn’s battle with public employee unions has boiled over in the past few weeks with the governor announcing an end to extensions to collective bargaining agreements during a drawn-out contract negotiations process. But, it seems the governor is rekindling his effort to pass SB1556, which removes potentially thousands of workers from their unions.
The measure impacts hundreds of the IFT public employees who work throughout state government – including the Secretary of State’s office, the Attorney General’s office and other executive-level agencies.
It is rumored that Illinois Senate leaders will put SB1556 up for a vote during the lame duck session in January, before new lawmakers are sworn into office. The IFT is joining our union allies to fight against this anti-worker power grab. Be watchful for more to come on this issue.

These elections are bullshit! The people put on the ballots are decided by the corporations and therefore they only support the corporations interest because of the donations
money plain and simple.
Yeah sure you have a choice in the general election. Ya want the republican corporate figurehead puppet or the democratic one? Your choice. ha.
That's why republicans are not representing the core republican values and the dem's are not representing the dem's traditional values. It's a puppet government run by the money.
seiu is the worst union out there. People pay into the union but never get any legal help from it.They should be locked up for theft the way they ignore their people.Supervisors and commisioners at o'hare routinely hand out suspensions without following any rules but their own. Media should be all over this but also choose to ignore it when given info about cases.seiu is run by the 5th floor and everyone knows it.
I am so tired of hearing the libetards say that the republicans are anti-Union.....you asshats that voted for rhambo and Obama thanks...you get what you deserve for fucking up this country....

---------------------------------
Well Rahm just granted all those immigrants citizenship and the Illegal immigrants will soon have Illinois drivers licenses too -- so we can no longer call them undocumented immigrants.
That's enough manpower to bust this union apparently as wages get pushed down to the Food Stamp qualifying poverty level making them state indentured servants.
Look on the bright side. The money that is saved can be used to build another city park in tribute to some politicians ego.
Screw this society.
19 Hostess exec's of the bankrupt baker were awarded $1.8 million dollars in bonuses by the bankruptcy court as 18,500 union workers were laid off.
Extortion at it's finest.
THEY BANKRUPT THE COMPANY, then tell the judge if they don't get the bonuses they won't stay and they are the only ones with the "expertise" to see the company thru to shut down!
WHAT EXPERTISE THEY BANKRUPT A COMPANY that has been around for about what...eight decades?!!
Oh yeah. The reason that they went bankrupt is because union workers would not take another pay cut. The exec's raping the company for bonus after bonus had nothing to do with it
I'm sooooo sure.
Too bad, so sad. NOT! The SEIU are oboma's thugs who do dirty work for him. This union and others like it need to be abolished..they are run by the socialists/communists, and commit crimes against those who do not march in step with THEM.
This is a learning momemt for those who think they are indispensable....you ain't!! And the socialists/communists will cut you off at the ankles like they are attempting to do to the rest of us in this country...divide and conquor, race bait, class warfare...typical soialist/communist practices...just read Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals...the handbook written by oboma's mentor, Saul Alinsky. Those who voted for leftist oboma.....suckers all!
It should not be republicans vs democrats. Nor is it libtards, liberals, loonees vs conservatives, right wing nut jobs or whatever.
The leaders in Washington, downstate, and downtown love to ramp that stuff up to divide us. It's polarizing.
It gets the attention away from their evil doings like not funding the pensions like they agree to. The passing of new bills to legalize the outright thefts.
The number two item of concern, rep's and dem's alike this election cycle was corruption. Money in politics. Yet did we hear either party talk about it in the debates? NOPE.
The media pushed gay rights, abortion, and other issues as the talking points. Why? Because the media is not going to take a pass on billions of dollars in campaign donations that will be spent buying TV time. Follow the money.
It's political insiders vs the rest of us. Get it thru your head!! Can we stop the rep's vs dem's thing since we all agree money in politics has corrupted our republic?
Example
Obama is getting set to deliver the austerity plan that is being demanded by the corporations. The same plan Romney would of delivered just watch and see.
The politicians are not for us. The politicians are for the people that gave them the campaign donations. The corporations.
The corporations via their donations decide who gets put on the election ballot. It doesn't matter to them what political party label they wear as long as they can be bought. Then we get to choose in the dog and pony show general election. Do you want the corporate sponsored democrat or the corporate sponsored republican? either way the corporation is going to win and get more tax cuts and the our standard of living will be lowered.
There's a group of about 70 CEO's right now calling for the political apparatus to: "lower the middle classes expectations" Social Security, Pensions, Medicare. the things that we all paid into for years, that are demonized with the name of "entitlements" they are telling us we are not going to get them. This after receiving trillions of dollars in bailouts and tax breaks in various forms from the taxpayers.
When is enough, enough? How much money do these elite members of society need?
Union members of Illinois should be asking Obama where his comfy shoes are.
If memory serves me right the OH-man said that he stood up for unions collective bargaining rights and was willing to "put on his comfy shoes and join them on the picket lines"
You need to be declared mentally ill if you are a working person who votes Democrat
Mel Reynolds... Felon, Fraud, Child molester, LIAR... Just the clown the voters want as their representative in Congress. Hahahaha!

I am so tired of hearing the libetards say that the republicans are anti-Union.....you asshats that voted for rhambo and Obama thanks...you get what you deserve for fucking up this country....
12/01/2012 03:55:00 AM
WORD!! DemoRATS have owned this state for decades and still blame the GOP when their jobs vanish. Its too bad there isnt another election coming up, the workers could get jobs campaigning...
Hypocrisy Alert: Prayer vigil.
What do they expect? Sub-standard work is all they do. After they privatized the janitors in the police stations, the floors actually get mopped. Let next get rid of the city electicians and plumbers. Ever try to get them to change a light? (only they are allowed to do it) In 025 half of the toilets leak or don't work and the basement wall has leaking pipes in it.
What do you expact from Dumbacrats ! !
This should be no surprise to anyone as it was predicted before the election....once Romney won, unions and the middle class would be screwed as he took care of his wealthy friends....O wait
I've decided I don't feel sorry for anyone hit hard by economic times if they bought into the bullshit put out by our socialist president and voted for him. I also don't feel sorry for any victims of crime anymore (except for kids). After all, these are the same people who wanted a police department that shows criminals kindness and respect because everyone is human no matter what. You all are seeing the effects of your very bad thought process.
But the company is outfit connected, that comes before pro-union. Didn't you know that?
What you see here has been happening in the white collar jobs as well. No unions (which makes it easier to layoff people) and they bring in cheap foreign labor on Visas to replace them.
This has been going on downtown for over a decade. So the people working downtown are not all US citizens, nor do they own property and pay taxes.
Great for the corporations, but that's why you see so many losing homes - they are not making as much money as they used to. The laid off white collar workers are now working at a retail store - if they are lucky.
The whole economy is imploding and most government workers don't even know why. Wait til the city brings in cops and teachers on Visas and pays them $24,000 a year.
Don't think that is beyond being done by Rahm.

You're another guy that probably doesn't even know WHY you hate Obama.
I love it! The folks on the Democrat plantation will keep voting for thembecause they sell their for free phones.
Janitors always have dirty fingernails. I hope they cleaned them out before they grabbed those picket signs.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
I bet they wish they had that money back that they donated to the Democratic party.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
If you want to touch Rahm's cold heart with a prayer vigil on a Friday night, take it to his Synagogue on Pine Grove just east of Waveland. Maybe if you drag your working class Gentile asses to his house of worship, he might show mercy. As for sympathy, you deserve none because you sere stupid enough to blindly support Democrats. Not to worry, Obama has a lengthly unemployment pay-out waiting for you
United Maintenance is also part of United Security operated but retired CPD officers (fact) and possibly (unknown) owned by them! They hired CPD officers all the time and pay well.
din't the SEIU spend 300,000 to thet rhams aldercreature elected on the NW side?
I'm sue the dues money could have been better used by the membership
That rotten little fuck could care less about some single mother of four, working nights out there to keep the wolves away from her door.As long as he is half way to being a billionaire. Wonder who gets the replacement worker contract? Hope he feels good about wrecking many peoples holiday season. American royalty, what a piece of shit.
mayor aurbach got what he wanted and now it's "F/U" typocal politics in il
just like the 7 day extensions now for failing the emissions just a $ game get the concessions and then drop the hammer
12/01/2012 03:55:00 AM
So true!
They want illegals because they can pay them less.
You think Union bosses give a shit? Well, just a little because that's what they get from, some janitors, union dues. They are bought off.
Now that the socialists have the seiu votes, they stick it in their keesters, and no reach-around.
At least they got some cool purple t-shirts out of the deal.
Will they all be entitled to 99 weeks of unemployment ? Will they all be entitled to Link Cards, if they don't already have them ? What other entitlements will they be entitled to ? I suspect, they will be fine. The Gov and Mayor are close to a Casino Deal. That's very important to our state economy, right......? Yes, I suspect, they will all be ready to vote democratic in the next election. PS: Let's All Have Another Drink Of That Democratic Kool Aid !
Let the revolution begin!! Lets stop trying to prevent the fiscal fall. When food stamps and Obama phones are no longer available riots like Greece will come to the good old USA. Its coming and its inevitable!!!
12/01/2012 01:44:00 AM
They'll take our pensions away before doing away with link cards and free phones.
All you janitors who voted for Tiny Dancer and BO you got what you voted for. So stop complaining and eat it.
Democrats no longer need the support of Organized Labor. They have enough votes from the Minorities with six children to each family and entitlements to all.
Fuck SEIU they poured in several hundreds of thousands of dollars to defeat the Lt who ran for 45th ward alderman. Sent out five mailings a week against him and his pension. And they did it all at Rahm's request. HAHaHaHa....HoHoHo
How much can the city be saving doing this? At least city employees are paying city taxes, unlike the Bellwood employees who will be replacing them.
Rahm has never supported unions. He was appoin--- er, elected to bust up unions.
That said, it's not like the GOP isn't doing the exact same thing, so you're pretty much damned no matter who you vote for.
Watching the Mayor shut out the union influence is like watching a snake devour its own tail...
Is it possible to have a recall on Rahm! He is a joke a true greasy Chicago politician! I think a tea party movement may have to happen against the city, county and state. Dont pay your real estate taxes. You dont have to pay them for 2 years. Yes you will will get hit with late fees befor your taxes are sold. But if the Chiacgo tax payer deceided not to pay them for 2 years the deck of cards would crumble and Rahm would be forced not to build a Maggie park, 100's of miles of bike lanes and cutting off ceasefire. He is in a dream state and needs to wake up soon...

Scrub came out to O'Hare, displaced African AMERICAN employees and hired Eastern Europeans and Hispanics--non US citizens who couldn't communicate with other employees in ENGLISH. They got fined 3 million by the EEOC for discriminating against African AMERICAN citizens. So I'm not crying about them losing their contract.
The Daley higher ups trashed the City Custodians who were overwhelmingly African American to the media and brought in Scrub. They were the first victims on the chopping block.
The City Custodians had decent wages with benefits, lived in the City and were taxpayers. They had steady employment and were from communities where unemployment is endemic and skyrocketing. These hardworking people, who were setting a good example for the young people in their communities, were maligned by the political class.
If you want to look for waste at O'Hare, you can start by looking at the new class of Terminal Managers that emerged, high paying jobs that are filled with patronage hacks. No Blue Line for these parasites, they all get parking spaces close to the terminals.
The new custodians, whoever they are, will be paid less and will have to shell out more of their hard earned money to take the Blue Line to work.
Rahmbo thanks all of you for voting democrat.
there really no body thats stand up for organize labor..should start their own party..
Although the "undocumented workers" are being rewarded with driver's licenses and social security cards, will they be excluded from jury duty 'cause Crook County will not want to pay for bi-lingual interpeters in the courtrooms ?
Rahm is a definite union buster. Wait till we see what kind of ridiculous bullshit he's got in store for us and fire during contract negotiations.
He absolutely despises police and fire. Way to support your first responders Rahm. Asshole!
Good for Rahm. The unions are thugs.
I am against all public sector unions except cops and fire who are risking their lives. If some guy scrubbing a toilet doesnt like his job or pay he or she is free to move on and get paid what he or she thinks is a "fair" wage for scrubbing a bowl.
I can't wait to hear the excuses.... Lol
That's why I voted against our mayor and president.

SEIU pumped $250k into the 45th Ward Aldermanic Campaign last time. They blanketed the area with false claims comparing the CPD Lt, who at the time had a Commanding lead in the race, to George Bush and other crazy things. And it worked. That is disgusting. That is Chicago Politics, backed by the SEIU.
They're expendable now.
The lemmings gave the Machine there vote and now the Machine is giving them the shaft.
It's a real asshole that pulls this just before Christmas & New Years.
But, as previously posted...the dolts vote for these idiots.
Don't be surprised to see a lot more of this nationwide.
The Chicago bred kakistocracy in D.C. is sending the USA in to Twinkiedom.
-not a cop
When voting blocks {blacks,browns,unions,gays etc.} blindlessly vote for the Democrats no matter what why should Rahm, Obbama,Durbin etc. throw them any bones. They know that the uneducated voters will vote for them anyway.
It's been going on for decades and will continue for decades more. The average voter knows less now than they did back in the 60s.
Votes have consequences.
Merry Christmas, you're fired. Oy!
Complain complain complain,these politicians are thieves trying to balance an unbalanceable debt,trying to save money,deals are made to usually rehire the same people, but that union won't be telling Rahm their demands!He wants total control of everything your pocketbook and his!
Union soldiers are now wearing union underware........curley Howard
I love it.
The "Democratic" Party is a personality cult. If Republican Gov Walker in WI did this they would be burning the house down! Here, Rahm, Mr. DemoRaAT Machine pol does it and eeeee so K!
Sounds like tin foil hat stuff to many. Nevertheless you got Quinn trying to bust out the unions. The state legislature is voting to reject any money being allocated for pay increases for 2013 for the state union employees.
Didn't all the Libtards vote agains Brady for Gov bec they were scared that HE would do the same thing??
HAHA suckers. AND now you have no gun rights.
There is no other way to describe Democrats but as PURE EVIL. What other group f's over their core constituents like this? I mean WHY??
City politics as usual and now this douchebag of a mayor can somehow wiggle these figures into jobs he bought to the city,the people getting dumped right before christmas don't count.
SEIU still has not learned their lesson, QUIT voting Democratic!
Fuck SEIU they poured in several hundreds of thousands of dollars to defeat the Lt who ran for 45th ward alderman. Sent out five mailings a week against him and his pension. And they did it all at Rahm's request. HAHaHaHa....HoHoHo
Isn't he the same asshole that wanted Office as a County Board President? LMFAO. Well he would of done us a ot of good. Wasn;t he against labor guys also?
And the governor's approval rating is in the low 20's....but all these idiots will still vote democratic.
Well maybe if you dumb asses ome up with someone good I will change my vote.
You'd think all the dummycrats in Chicago would learn from their mistakes!

You are reeally stupid. There are over 100 bi linfual interpeers now
You guys are idots. When one union falls it opens the door for another to fall. But our FOP memebrs are just to devided to see that. When it happens to us lets see who will be bumb rapping the union

I AGREE!!!!!
They deserve it! If you continue to support the Commie/Democrats, the working man will become the "un-working" man. You are only important to the Democrats if you are beholden to the Democrats. That's why they despise self made, hard working middele-class people.... because they dont owe anythiong to the party. You union members better realize soon that the Republicans support business and without business, there just aint any jobs!
PULEEZE, everyone, it is no longer the Democratic Party who is operating from OUR White House, it is now known as the Socialist/Communist/Fascist Party...oboma likes all three approaches to oppressing the citizens of this country, destroying Liberty and Freedom, and the Constitution. The Party once known as the Democrat Party is now composed of communists and socialists who have been itching to run the show in the USA THEIR WAY...and now they have the power to do so. BUT, we must not aid and abet the enemy..we must be like the freedom fighters of World War II..they resisted, they delayed, they pushed back, until they were able to snatch back their country.
This should be our motto..resist, delay, push back the socialists/communists..or lay down with the lemmings and let oboma walk over you with his jackboot. You're an American! and we Americans don't take no shyt from commies and socialists...we work toward their demise...so let's get er' done.

I can give you valid reasons why I Don't like, trust, believe or want Obama. Policies both foreign and domestic. But SCC would probably not repost due to the length, not content. So to make it simple for a simpleton like yourself this is what it all boils down to. I believe in small government, individual rights, and personal responsibility. Obummer advocates for big government, collective rights, and government being responsable for your welfare. I believe that his agenda eats away at our individual rights on a massive scalle. I believe in Capitalism because like me it works. Socialism doesn't work because in a socialist society eventually there are more takers than workers. Both dems and repubs have been taking this road against our freedom and individual rights Dems are just sprinting to it while repubs are walking there.

They did the same thing to Gavin in the 41st Ward.At least we had one ward that was solid Republican and 45 would be also if Garrido was elected.For the past 16-20 years Doherty was getting at least 70 per cent of the vote.Anybody that complained about him,look what you got now that POS left wing Oconnor and Mulroe.In the presidential election Obama won the 41st ward by over 2,000 votes.This tell me that tons of cops,fireman and city workers voted for him.
get me the f*** out of this state.

Even if they didn't who would they vote for, the Mormon?
Remember what Richard M. Daley said, "...they all can be replaced."
With the Driver's License to Illegals Program all these people are replaced with NEW DEMOCRATIC VOTERS, citizen or not.
dems are only for unions when republican adm wants to balance a state budget(wi) and save tax payers money
in chitcawgo , crook county they rape unions , pensions to line their pockets , that's what privatizing blue can pick up , janitors at cpd , ohare airport is about (political campaign contributions )
This story is a greedy fucking company that employees individuals with limited job skills. Granted many of us have grandfathers, uncles, cousins etc who raised families on a janitor or custodian income. Most companies today want to suppress wages. To the fucking bone if they can. They do not give a shit. That is the situation here. Contract granted, now the workers are fucked. This has nothing to do with Obama. The workers involved have zero leverage. Most people think anyone can do this job. Fuck that, I dont want to clean up shit all day, and especially for that low pay and zero health care. A damn shame.
the owner of this company Rick Simon is former CPD, came on in 1976,went right to some union detail guarding some Teamster boss, some girlfriend disappeared never to be found, got heated up and he quit the job but has been packaged up with some high line security company. hires coppers and was hooked into Daley, now Rahm
Rick Simon is as crooked as crooked gets. As anyone who worked in Intell in the early to mid 90's. any one who sniffed around his shit got told to back off. By 11th and State. Money flowed like water.

Idiot. That is not a good analogy. These over paid union janitors are/were not first responders. Unions were created at the turn of the century for a reason. That reason no longer applies to most unions aside from Fire and Police. So get a book, learn some history and economics ...and STFU!
Why should I pay Union Wages when Illegals work for a lot less,Illegals are Chicagos future next year they will be able to get Drivers Licenses and compete with Union Drivers and take those Jobs Viva la Mexicago.....RHAM..
***********************************
This has been happening for over the last 5 years.. before the drivers licenses they were put to work via the unions in the trucking industry as loaders.. my son in law who happens to be Hispanic got a pay cut because Miller distributors were told to hire them to load the trucks.. as soon as they can legally drive guess what happens to all those legal citizens who are now driving trucks??? you see them start popping up in CITY jobs.. as long as the union gets their dues they don't CARE if citizens have jobs only the ILLEGALS..
Years back when we marched on City Hall SEIU was right there supporting us. Never seen Us do much in they way of supporting other Unions w/ the exception of the Cinderheads. Without a Union you have NOBODY to negotiate your contract & guarantee your working rights. An overwhelming majority of you think the rights & benefits you enjoy today are due to the generosity of a benevolent employer. You're either incredibly naive or Colossally Stupid.
this is not a RIGHT or LEFT problem it's a STUPIDITY problem.. it's NOT the corporations who are at fault .. IT'S our fault.. WE not them are allowing this.. WE are electing these people..WE ARE TO BLAME by NOT doing anything out of FEAR.. the UNIONS OWN YOU.. You can't stand up and work for a candidate that the UNION doesn't approve of.. YOU can't tell the UNION that won't do the foot work for their candidate..YOU can't can't do anything .. YOU have no voice.. it's owned by the UNIONS.. How many of you got out and worked for a candidate OTHER than a DEMOCRAT?? None of you.. OUT OF FEAR of RETALIATION from the UNION..At least be honest with yourselves.. My guess is most of you don't even try to talk to others you work with about what's going on.. read what happened in GERMANY under Hitler when people QUIT speaking out because of FEAR.. HOW did that work out for them?? I'd say WAKE UP but the election is over and you slept right through it complaining but not doing anything,, power is in numbers and for NOW we out number them but with ILLEGALS being given the red carpet treatment how long will that be the case.. a NEW police force beholden to DEMOCRATS who will do whatever they say,. stay silent than explain it to your kids and grandkids..

i'd say that you should take your own advice, but, since you've apparently tried it once, to no lasting effect, why bother?

Democrats no longer need the support of Organized Labor. They have enough votes from the Minorities with six children to each family and entitlements to all.

Dumb Ass!?!?
How many people will crowd a union hall versus a south or west side mega church? Quinn paid how much $$$ or our money for inner city kids to hand out "Inner Peace" fliers?
What is the percentage of union organized Police Officers that voted in any election in memory versus the number Chicago Public Housing residents?
As long as the Democratic/Socialists can keep importing new people to vote with their hands out they will stay in power and we will be stuck with the bills.
SEIU sucks shit, a no balls union run by a fucking commie buddy of barry the asshole.The union is totally useless, does not stand up for members but loves to take their money.
Well HELLO?! Democrats...what did you think was gonna happen when you jagoffs voted the asshole back in office? Like they say becareful what you wish for. Oh yea, fuck you Ohio
the way it typically works is most of the old employees just get hired by the new company, often at about the same wages and benefits.
