]]> The United Auto Workers may be out of the hole now that President Bush has approved a $17 billion bailout of the U.S. auto industry, but the union isn’t out of the bunker just yet. Even as the industry struggles with massive losses, the UAW brass continue to own and operate a $33 million lakeside retreat in Michigan, complete with a $6.4 million designer golf course. And it’s costing them millions each year.

The UAW, known more for its strikes than its slices, hosts seminars and junkets at the Walter and May Reuther Family Education Center in Onaway, Mich., which is nestled on “1,000 heavily forested acres” on Michigan’s Black Lake, according to its Web site. But the Black Lake club and retreat, which are among the union’s biggest fixed assets, have lost $23 million in the past five years alone, a heavy albatross around the union’s neck as it tries to manage a multibillion-dollar pension plan crisis. Critics call it a resort for union leaders that wastes money from union dues. “It’s their members’ money that they’re spending on this thing,” said Justin Wilson, managing director of the Center for Union Facts, a union watchdog group. “The union has bigger issues at hand than managing a golf course.

Managing the course may become a burden for the union. The UAW covers costs for the Reuther Center from the interest it earns on its strike fund, according to tax documents, but massive losses in the past five years have forced the union to make heavy loans to keep the center afloat. Critics call it a poor investment for a group with over $1.25 billion in assets

]]> •    Analyze why you’re unhappy.
“Look objectively at your own situation to see what the factors are,” says Jewell. “Then talk it over with a friend, colleague or a coach to get their perspective.” Isolating the root cause of job dissatisfaction can take some effort, she acknowledges, but it will pay off in the long term. “Until you understand why you don’t love your job today, you won’t know what to look for in the future.”
•    Determine a course of action.
“This involves assessing risks and opportunities, pros and cons,” says Griffin. “Before you challenge the status quo, you have to anticipate the consequences. Ask others for their feedback. Build a Plan A and a Plan B. And this is really important; consider the support system you have to help you.”
•    Select and execute a specific strategy.
This might include opening lines of communication with your boss, talking to someone in human resources, finding a mentor or looking for other opportunities in your organization, they say.
•    Evaluate and refine your plans.

]]> It can be often said that women and female employees experience more than their share of disrespect  and
poor treatment by the agents of society and management.  “My job is to manage”.   Yet when asked few in these position can explain what this means other than “I am the manager”  and similar mantras.    When applying what might be considered downright foolish behavior – such as the “we know routine “  or pointing to graphs and charts on the wall where the rules are one sided if not indeed stacked and informing victims that “I am just doing my job”.   Similar answers and mentalities could be expected of border guards or policemen / women issuing tickets at a speed trap whose only purpose is that of revenue collection – little else.

It can be best said that if a women does rise to management then their attempts to be firm or forthright
with male employees may be more than difficult.   Employers have traditionally paid women less than women as “men have to raise a family”.  How that logic and argument does not apply to single parent households where the mother is the provider and wage earner is somewhat elusive.
