Philly being Philly.
I'm a former Teamster (107) and this stuff is just business as usual. I remember it a decade ago and I've heard from my dad how bad it used to be. The more things change...The only thing new is that they were actually indicted this time.
Philly has a chance to be a dynamics city again. Business wants it and, more importantly, it's citizens want it. But a bunch of guys in hardhats from the suburbsd want their piece first.
Edit: Paper Shredders Local 1 is going to have double overtime over the next couple weeks all over the city.

My father is also in the trades. He was the business agent and Vice President of local
1. He is with the international now. Works out of the house. Big wig in the trades. But he told me a lot of stuff that has gone on over the years.
