When I had a job that was represented by a union they forced us all to listen to the union representative who came in and gave their pro union propaganda to everyone. I was annoyed that they didn’t have anybody to present the opposite point of view.
- chasd00 4y agoYeah and unions are where the whole “paying your dues”, “I’ve paid my dues”, “check is in the mail” memes come from. I’d much rather deal with management alone than union leadership.

Either you don't know what dealing with hostile management is like or you've had really shitty unions. Either way most employees benefit greatly from having representation in the workplace rather than having to deal with a dictator alone.
- chasd00 4y agoWell to be 100% honest you’re right on both counts. Most things in life lie on a spectrum and most instances lie somewhere close to the middle of that spectrum. My comment lands on an extreme anti-union end. I personally do not want to be a union member but I do admit that, on average, a worker benefits from union membership.
