The police and the firefighters have unions.

John Starke

People take the five day work week for granted, like it was always there. Enjoy your weekends? Thank a Union. That's just one of many things that management is dying to take away from laborers in all services and industries.

Because their leadership is corrupt, and they don't represent the values of their members.

Will Mason

They are redundant. All they do is make a few people who pretend to care about the workers very rich. The only people it helps are the union officers.

Sarah Perry

They're demands and expectations typically are aimed to benefit one segment of a workforce.

Toasty

Unions have a very important place in history and should be proud of the *past* accomplishments. Attempting to bring up the past to justify poor performance and often unethical behavior should not be tolerated especially by union members.

Only your mom! Whether bio or adopt. But how about you go visit? Give her the card in person! But card is nice.

I only sent cards to my mother and grandmother, they were the only mother figures in my life

Caryn Erdberg

To honor her and show love and care.

A mother Should receive a present and/or card from her child (regardless of age). But, it is a really sweet Bonus for mother to receive one from a child not her own!
