I do Marshall, but right now I am trying to sell the computers I have, and have not gotten any computer calls from cliants. My guess the calls will pick up more once summer comes around. Thats when peoples kids stay home for vecation and seriously screw up computers lol.

Unions are good for low wage earners like reatail employees. Having worked retail for 10 years as a part timer and manager in non union shops and as a manager and area manager in union shops, I must say the union shops provided people with raises, good benefits and some protection from abuses. The non-union shop stunk!!! People were fired at the drop of a hat and no matter how well a part timer performed they were not getting a raise. Period.
Now unions in other industries are another matter....but when Wal-Mart comes to a small town and shuts the ma and pa small business's down and only hires part time with out much in the way of decent benifits...unions are good.
I'm a card carrying Republican....but with my expieriences in Retail and what we all know about Wal-Mart tells me that their employees need to organize!!! God Bless them and good luck !!!
