My brother in law is a Pepsi truck driver (has been for almost 25 years). He’s always bragged that he gets paid the same pay and benefits as those in a union, but doesn’t have to deal with dues “etc.”. Recently he had to go on medical leave. When he was ready to go back to work he had to take a physical. He had to go a week without pay until the results of the physical came back. It is total bullshit but he didn’t have a Union to back him and not worth it to sue. Update: He’s only had a few of these issues in his career, so maybe the union dues he would have paid outweighed the cost of getting stiffed. Adding this because my point wasn’t that unions are awesome, but they can have value… the question is at what cost.
