I've known quite a few union members who were paid out of their unions' strike funds when they went on strike. This is not so cut and dried.
I've also known hundreds of people who love their unions, from a variety of industries and walks of life (health care, service industry, trades, heavy industry.)
This is also anecdotal, of course, but it doesn't seem right to make such broad claims with a veneer of fact or universality and then add that one little caveat, "anecdotal, I know"
- mtnGoat 5y agoIt’s seems very right to share what I have first hand experience with. Seems silly to look at it any other way. I just wanted to state that I am aware these dozens of people I know don’t speak for all union members, but my first hand experience is that none of them liked anything but the job protections and ridiculous pay protected by a mafia essentially. Also, I doubt you’ve spoken to hundreds of individuals about their opinions on their union. lol
