American Unions: fat cats (presidents), dues, fancy dinners with the execs, mafia ties, corruption, pay offs, forced politics, exclusion of work based on joining, lowering of salary, years of law suites, subcontractors (non union) to actually do the work, brain drains, unmotivated work forces, forced protesting, layoffs, forced clicks, voting, forced discrimination. "We can't use her she is non-union". "Sure he touched her, but he is union, we need to consult the union first!" Yuck. My wife dealt with the Macys mafia (union) - what a gross group of fat cats in fancy cars. She couldn't even pay her bills - but needed to pay that union due (post tax of course). All her dues were made in person - they only accepted cash. She was laid off along with a few hundred others - after the union and execs had a fancy dinner - no severance obviously. The union pigs are still doing well getting those dues! Enjoy google!
PS! If you work at google, don't pay the dues: ever. Give the money to domestic violence shelters instead. Put that receipt into your union due. Fuck unions.
- borepop 5y agoAs opposed to CEOs and upper management, who are all lovely people and want nothing but the best for their employees, and are definitely not motivated by short-term gains.
- judge2020 5y agoDepends on whether you get a good union structure or not. As an observer, it doesn't seem like employees get a choice besides when voting whether or not to instate a union at all.
- brendoelfrendo 5y agoYou also don't get a choice in upper management, but at least the union is nominally on your side.
