Johns Hopkins Workers Rally For Higher Pay In Md.

Workers at Johns Hopkins Hospital have been rallying for higher pay at the esteemed medical center.

A union representing 2,000 service workers at the hospital held a rally Saturday. Some workers say they rely on food stamps to make ends meet and live in poverty, despite having jobs.

Actor Danny Glover and "The Wire's" Wendell Pierce joined the rally and spoke to the crowd. Pierce says workers at the world's greatest hospital should be paid a living wage.

.. go get a job that makes ends meet or else move back to the Caribbean where you came from.. this is supply and demand ...something that devout Communists like Danny Glover abhor

There has been a horrid decline in the service at Hopkins. I was there many years ago and everyone was wonderful and helpful. Now the staff (non medical) has become (for the lack of a better word) pissy. They don't do their job and when you question anything they get smart mouthed and then if you complain... you are screwed because the staff has all ganged up to make certain you get screwed everywhere. Fire them all and get on with the old quality without the attitude.

this was going on in 1969 when I was there. it doesn't end with passing time. they were as resentful then as they are now. (maybe if they didn't smoke, drink have iphones,etc., they can afford to live.)
