  • The IBEW that represents inside wiremen like myself are covered by a different contract than those electricians who work with the SMART union and BLET on the railroad. I don’t think they are subject to the same availability requirements (which were the main crux) as the transport guys but i know as much as you do on that topic.

    I can tell you i quit the railroad myself after 2 years of suffering, primarily over those very availability requirements. The amount of sick time the RR workers ended up getting (in my opinion) is a bandaid on a gushing wound.

    I wouldn’t work under those requirements for thrice the pay they get.




  • here is a nice writeup on red herring and even tips on how to use it more effectively than you’ve been. The first important thing is understanding the term.

    I’ll help you over this hill youre lyin’ on… Your actual argument from the beginning is that “Israel as a state entity should continue to exist.”

    Your “red herring’s” purpose is to obfuscate your final position (Israel as a state should continue, simply because it’s already there.)

    By diverting attention towards how difficult it could be logistically, you hide from the immorality of israel’s existence.

    My OG reply simultaneously dismisses your “ok but how?” argument as fallacious and addresses your real point, “israel should exist”. If you actually think israel should exist as an ethnostate someplace, i actually think your country should host them and you should move out so they can have it.

    You have not done anything since except complain how its not fair i ignored your bad faith.

    Can you please take a little more care in your next response?
