Have never worked for the NEA and have no idea where you get your mistaken ideas from Mr. Chance but you sure do have a lot of them and a lot of anger to confuse yourself even more. I retired from the construction trades, Laborers and Operating Engineers after thirty years of highway construction for Wilder Construction Co. They were the best pro union company in the state. You wouldn't have lasted long on that  job with the sad attitude you are carrying around like a millstone.
