I think the complaint comes from lower wage positions. The concrete example I recall is someone who worked part time in a grocery store. All the benefits of the union only accrued to full time workers. And hours went by seniority, so unless the older workers didn’t want the work, you were stuck with the short end of the stick.

If you're already part time, you would have to accept your hours get cut first in that situation, by design. There's really no other way to do that.
