Ironic coming from a duck fan -
Here's my union story.....I am forced to be in the union for my job so FYFMFE. I have no choicetopdawgnc said:WSJ had an editorial today on unions.
Fastest growing unions are in federal and state government.
Unions are declining in every other sector.
Overall unions are down to 11.4% of the population.
Do we really need the union protecting our federal government employees from being over worked?
I remember hearing/reading back in high school or college, or maybe I made it up, unions prevented America from transforming to a communist or heavy socialist slant. Gave the workers a voice and allowed a balance that prevented an uprising.
Unions served a purpose, they provided a voice for the working man. But, no longer needed. Laws have changed, automation has become more advanced ... just not needed.
We certainly don't need public sector unions ....
I have never asked for one thing....I don't go to meetings...I dontt care about bargaining....our benefits are awesome so why rock the boat.
I put in paperwork in April for my job to be reclassified At the next round of negotiations (What I get paid is a joke...I look around and think WTF.) Anyways....I submitted the paperwork and was told "everything looks great."
Fast forward to last week and I haven't heard anything....they won't say they lost the paperwork but won't give me an answer about why they won't fight for me. They have never forgotten to take a half days pay every month For dues though. I was livid and am still not sorry about the emails I sent.
I get your employer doesn't value you as an employee and offers you shit benefits....that sucks. Well my union doesn't value me either and I pay them. -

By the way, it's still your choice to work for a union or not. This is a free country.
It's funny the same people the day unions are terrible, we need free market, yet say they absolutely have to work for a union. -
bummer. Not only do you lack intelligence, you can't read, either.

As irritating as Honda is, it is entertaining to watch him make a complete fool of himself. Every single one of his responses, he continues to dig a deeper hole. Great stuff.

HTH -
