How many people in the real world have contracts, Cliff? Name me the upper, middle and lower level corporate workers who have assurances that they will be hired even for one more day?

You bought into a union. You are now in the acting like union members. That's what you bought into and the hopes are that in this union there will be power.

It ain't happening, Bro. If they take you back, and I think in my MiLB experience they will, it will be on MLB terms with minor concessions for the sake of appearance.

I understand your frustration not first hand but only by hearing about it from many of my MiLB friends. You are underpaid, overly abused, and overworked.

All of which became self-evident in your fisrt year in MiLB.

Here's a real world clue. Get your head out of your ***, start thinking about the fact that you will never be a MLB ump and deal with it.
