Alternative interpretation: unionized employees feel more secure in their job and therefore will be more honest when random people ask them about it. Or maybe they didn't even know where to start. The only people I've ever heard have no complaints about their job were people who had so many complaints that they put on an easy-going front to avoid dumping their problems on someone who's trying to make small talk.
It's like when you're teaching and the students don't understand a thing you said, they'll have no questions. It's always the kids who understood 75% of what you said who has a question. One of the goals of every liberation movement (labor, feminism, racial justice, etc.) is making people aware of their shared struggle and it's causes. The Teamsters are far from radical but the fact that things can even be negotiated at all has a way of making people aware that decisions of management are not forces of nature.
