What a Bunch of Chumps
Their whining is twinged with guilt because they all knew
that at one time, when they were still members, they could
have stepped up and done something about the injustice. At
the time, they knew where all the “bodies were buried,” and
had they spoken up, legal action could have been taken.
Had they done something when the trouble began, they might
have saved their business. However, for whatever reasons,
be it expediency or threats of withheld benefits, they chose
to let the crimes continue.
Now, it was too late. Eventually they were fired of walked out
of their own accord. The fact that they escaped or were
kicked out, meant they had surrendered any right to call
themselves members of that organization. In the eyes of the law
they were “disgruntled former employees,” and they had no
rights at all.
So, now, all they do is stand around the entrance and complain.
When new people leave, they provide a group that those newly out
can join. They all stand outside chanting what a criminal the boss
is. They know if they complain loudly enough they may goad the
bosses to attack them, which would “prove” how bad the bosses
were, but barring that, the former workers are effectively impotent
against the big corporation,
That is Marty's blog.
