133. I'm shocked by it myself and don't like that I like it...but I do.
Since this wave of anti-union stuff is sweeping across the country (and my district is faced with a 25% cut next year....25%!!! and I'm one of the lower guys on the totem pole so there is a really good chance i'm cut) so, i'm taking all of this very seriously and one thing that I have felt very betrayed by was all of these companies that I have given my money have been using it to stab me in the back! AT&T giving all that money to the tea party. Johnsonville sausages which we eat several times a month, have been supporting Scott Walker. And, damnit, even the Northern Quilted we usually buy has padded the Koch brother's pockets.

I'm ready to ONLY spend my money in a union supportive store. and no sign, fairly warned, will have to be taken as a "not a friend". It is not unfair to say that. It is harsh, and could cause backlash and it wouldn't be a choice I'd make. But I didn't make it. But I want to support my friends and I am SICK of being tricked by my enemy. (another year on our at&t contract while they hand that off to the tea party....it is enough to turn my stomach!)
