Ladies and gents, in a few short days we will be seeing the dirtiest of all scabs. The scab that answers the want ad for strike work. Let it be known:
A SCAB takes your job, a job he could not get under normal circumstances. He can only advance himself by taking advantage of labor disputes over the backs of workers trying to maintain decent wages and working conditions. He helps management destroy his and your profession, often ending up under conditions he/she wouldn’t even have scabbed for. No matter. A SCAB doesn’t think long term, nor does he think of anything other than himself. His smile shows fangs that drip with your blood, for he willingly destroys families, lives, careers, opportunities and professions at the drop of a hat. He takes from a striker what he knows he could never earn by his own merit: a decent job. He steals that which others earned at the bargaining table through blood, sweat and tears, and throws it away in an instant—ruining lives, jobs and careers.
