Prologue
of Labor-Management
Contract of Agreement
Contract of Agreement
We, the members of the newly formed Combined
Grand Union (CIO) of the formerly independent Craft & Trade Unions (AFL),
now referred to as Local #1, do hereby reaffirm our good faith toward the
Management of Laughing Coyote Mountain Factory, against whom we recently had a
difference of opinion. (Slave labor! Lockout!)
After exercising our inalienable right to strike and after orderly,
peaceful, reasonable arbitration (All night Brass Knucks!) we are reassured
that all future disagreements and misunderstandings can be resolved by such
methods. In so doing, we are following
precedent established by our forefathers, our fathers, Samuel Gompers, John L.
Lewis, John F. Kennedy and Roger Blough (the SOB). We sincerely pledge ourselves to good faith
in the tradition of America ,
Home, Mother and ice cream.

Subjects Arbitrated
Minimum
Wage: Reduced from original demand of
5 ginger snaps her hour per man (1625 ginger snaps per 5 day week) to above
compromise because this quantity would bankrupt Management and destroy his credit
rating.
Overtime: Reduced from original demand of double time
to time and a half in order to conform to local labor standards in Denver .
If this demand was won, the danger of a series of spiraling strikes was
respected.
Benefits: Hot Battery Acid delivered to the job was
dropped. GGUnion decided to strive for necessities without luxuries rather than
luxuries without necessities. Management threatened to supply the above demand
from regular mealtime reserves.
Management: Paydays changed from Fridays to every day.
Men get hungry.
Entertainment:
Girls Scouts on the job. Dropped.
Unreasonable.
