(Bolding is mine). There is no way the work would have been “ahead of schedule” if the union was involved.

“The 400-member American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees has filed a grievance contending that the work the goats are doing in a wooded lot is taking away jobs from laid-off union workers.
…
The grievance alleges that the university did not notify the union that it was planning to use goat crews on campus, according to a chief steward report supplied to the Battle Creek Enquirer.
…
The goats are ahead of schedule, said Nicholas Gooch, a university horticulturist and the project leader.”

You’ve got to be kidding me! You’re saying the lawsuit is baaaaaaaaaad?

3

Naaaaaaaaaaah. Sheep are baaaaaaaaaad, not goats!

4

I hope Michigan isn’t becoming such a nanny-state that they let anyone ram grievances like these onto innocent goat herders.

5

The university should stand their ground and not let the unions get their goat.

6

We aren’t going to make America goat again with this attitude.

7

The goats have an advantage over humans in other ways. When the goats leave, the area will be better fertilized, naturally. No so much with porta-potties unless they get tipped over.

Either there is a very subtle and extremely clever goat pun hidden in there somewhere, or you are breaking the rules of this thread.

He’s no sheep.

What can you do? management are on the horns of a dilemma here. They see an improvement to implement but they are butting heads with the unions. They are going to have to handle it with kid gloves if they don’t want a massive dispute to blow up…

errrrrr…

errrrrrrrrr…

errrr…cheese?

Whatever floats your goat.

12

Sometimes unions just have to have reality rammed home…

13

It’s a little premature to complain about this. Let the courts ruminant on it a bit.

14

People always butting in where they’re not needed.

15

Goat puns? Who’s kidding who?

16

They kept going “bwaaaah” and the union workers accused them of goating them on.

17

If the union doesn’t win their point, they’ll feel pretty sheepish.

Threads like this just haven’t been the same since the Cubs broke the Goat curse. :frowning:

19

So the Goats got the goat of the unions ?

Since the OP hasn’t come back, I think this thread should be put out to pasture.
