Yes, I googled it, but can someone please explain a collective bargaining agreement, in laymans's terms.. (ie, hungover, don't feel like reading 8 pages).

Posted

In general, its an agreement between the management of a company or organization and its labor force.

 

That's the short short answer... The longer answer involves working conditions, benefits, retirement plans, insurnance, pay scales and other stuff like that.

 

In terms of the NFL or NHL, its a giant working agreement between the league (owners) and the players (NFL/NHL PA).

Can someone please add a voice feature on this site to avoid reading altogether?

Actually, there is a text-to-speech feature bundled into Windows, I believe.

 

Now all you need is a speech-to-text feature, so you can avoid the necessity of typing completely. It'll also keep you kiddies from misspelling those big, adult words like "phenomenal".

Speech-to-text/text-to-speech converter...that would be perfect. Now all I'd have to do is move my toilet, fridge, and mailbox all next to my computer desk...and then Project Hawking is complete! I may not have to ever get up again.

Re: Speech to text, my 1st home PC had a speech command mode in its Windoze 3.1 shell. All my had to do was say, "Computer Start Program Excel" and the game FreeCell would start up! :w00t::D

You might want to pick someone more in your league...maybe Ron Artest or Randy Moss or the like. You know, someone "powerful"...

Hey, you asked it to start a program and it started one. That's good for Microsoft speech recognition. You're lucky it didn't try to send an email...
