Thank god, Unions need to die.

In the datacenter world power installation Here in Virginia where we have non-union labor/electricians is a whole lot cheaper than power installs up in NYC, where is is mandated that a union electrician does the work. By a magnitude of almost 3x the cost down here for the same thing.

One DC tenant brought in their own non-union electrician one day, the union found out, inflated a 30 foot rat outside of the datacenter and picketed all day long. The tenant was in violation of the datacenter agreement where it says they can only use union electricians but still shows you what type of crap you see with the unions.
