The $110,000 a year would go a lot further if they were not paying union dues.

Suck it up buttercup.
I did not opine on who deserved what. But having said that...

I've spent most of my career as an entrepreneur, so I am painfully aware of the difficulties of our lives/careers. Being in business is a tough fight every day, with customers, employees, competitors, suppliers, and others each acting in one way or another to squeeze our margins (and harm our sleep patterns).

Of course, when we are successful, the rewards are much greater than those of the truck drivers. So I do not begrudge them for trying to increase their slice of the pie...it's the American way
