The War Is Real

The war I wage is in my heart. Too many times have I seen the corporate monster get over. In our line of work we are supposed to provide service, what a contradiction. The powers that be sit behind a desk and figure out ways to disrupt our lives, why not disrupt theirs? This battle has become global this is the obvious fact. My words are no longer a thing of entertainment, the war I spoke of is here! Are we ready to do what it takes to win? Do we know what it means to really struggle? Our four fathers did! I have spoken at several shopgates, and pretty much laid the facts out there. Not everyone of us agrees with the tactics we must embrace but again this is war, and unless we are willing to sacrifice we will lose big!
What are you willing to do to defeat this monster?
In solidarity
