These guys are outside my work right now. What I thought was common knowledge, that they were paid protesters, seemed a surprise to most of my co-workers.
Few if any of these guys are carpenters. Most are probably homeless people paid slightly above minimum wage to protest. Mind you, they don't hire them full time -- 'casue then they'd have to give them benefits.
The whole thing seems rather arrogant to me -- they're protesting because the Circle Group isn't using their union, but their members make too much money to protest on their own, so they're HIRING people (at pretty low wages -- defintiely less than the non-union carpenters) with no benefits to protest for them.
I wonder how many would be honking for them, if they took a second to actually understand the situation instead of blindly following a sign.
Here's an article the Washington post did that mentions them www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/23/...
