The concerns and questions I have are that unions and union workers paint the picture of an atmosphere that is unfit to work in. That almost weekly there needs to be a meeting about how a worker can be made more comfortable. So in trade for that, to me it's the same as electing a Clinton or Bernie. You want a governing group to make all the rules for you. You can wear street clothes to work. Not be asked to do more than 3 things at a time. Take a 15-20-30 minute break several times a day. Crazy awesome benefits.
I say all that because in the beginning of the last century, members of the nazi party influenced mass production in the form of mistreating and enslaving employees. So a need for a union to protect them seems logical.
Now it seems blown way way out of proportion. Now the costs to operate a union are directly passed on to the consumer. On top of that 99% of them support socialism style politics and have conditioned people into thinking they are necessary in 2016.
I dunno, the actions of unions today bug me. I know this won't make some of you happy. I don't dislike you, just the system.
I work outside every day, rain or shine, snow or ice, 104deg summers. I don't take scheduled breaks. My pay reflects that. So I figure if I can go out every day and bust my booty without a union to protect me, it's aggravating to see other groups in the same business as me pass on their union costs to the rest of us.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. I would love to know from the inside how I may be incorrect
