As a union member myself I don't like the fact that other patrollers from different ASC resorts would take their place.

You can't run a ski resort without ski patrol, but a scab is a scab.

Welcome loafer15! I know loafer89 picked his username since he's a "Sugarloafer since 1989". Does that mean you're a "Sugarloafer since 1915"? :-o

I can't believe patrollers would cross a picket line, even if they were non-union. I would love to hear what the issues are.
