- skinkestek 5y agoNot unionized[1], but this is something I'd accuse unions of. [1]: because no uninon ever manages to not try to meddle in international politics. Gandalf in LOTR had it right: he did not want power because he knew he would be tempted to try to do a lot of good things.
- Jochim 5y agoThis sounds like you're arguing workers should leave things to their "betters"...
- skinkestek 5y agoI'm missing a "not" somewhere in there. The way it stands the downvotes are deserved. I'm personally not unionized but this is not something I would accuse the union of ;-)
- the-alt-one 5y agoNah, I was straight out of uni so taken on as a junior by the company and then given a raise as they didn't consider me junior after having me work there for 8 months or so. The union is probably involved in standard pay levels, but not much more than that.
- Ekaros 5y agoUnions in Nordic countries don't stop employers from paying more, they just set minimum pay level. And usually the normal raise level. They can always pay more and usually do with fields like software engineering.
