The employees are working very hard to buy the company out from it's holding company. In my opinion the current owners are being very lazy as there are numerous people ready to buy this brewery.

So they made it 123 years without being unionized and only 4 once they were?

I'm also anti-union, but holy red herring...

I'm not necessarily anti-union. They have a reason to exist sometimes. But was that timing cause-and-effect, or just a coincidence?

I'm fairly confident I'm not the only person here on Buzzboard seeing you calling someone an idiot, and thinking ... Ummm, okay.
Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.
