Everyone in Boston loves Tom Brady. Everyone, that is, except the local plumbers' union, which is angry that Brady isn't hiring union plumbers for the $3 million renovation job he's doing on his $6.7 million condo. "We're not going to any Pats games until he builds union," said Francis Jensen of Local 12, who with about a half-dozen of his brethren threw up an informational picket line in front of No. 12's Back Bay condo yesterday.The plumbers union says the outfit Brady hired doesn't pay the "established community standard" wage of $61.75 an hour plus benefits. Plumbers make $61.75 an hour plus benefits? I officially went into the wrong business.
Added union captain Tom Koney: "Here's a guy who gets paid millions for what he does but he doesn't believe in paying plumbers a decent wage."
