> Whatever dude, you know what I meant. No, I didn't knew what you meant. There is no such thing as a "union contract" in Sweden. Your employment contract is between employee and employer and is only indirectly affected by the collective bargaining agreement between the union and the employer. That is, your employment contract may not specify lower salary or worse benefits than what the union and the employer agreed upon. Due to inflation, collective bargaining rarely results in worse agreements than previously negotiated. But it can happen if the company faces bankruptcy and needs to urgently cut costs to survive. Apparently, this has happened to you more than once since you claim that "unions" and "employers" tried to convince you to accept a "shittier contract". Tough luck, I guess. > Again nitpicking (and you're wrong [1]) also since still being allowed to pay for a membership where you don't get anything to say because of your political affiliations is disgusting and just adding insult to injury. Well, the excluded member was an elected official of the Sweden Democrats. It wasn't solely due to his membership in that party that the union excluded him.
