As someone who worked in a union I can vouch for this ^
Most of the guys I worked with don’t even like the union they are in, they felt they were cheated into giving their money away for “no backup”
When in reality these guys would have lost their jobs YEARS AGO but because the union defends them against management, but because these guys can’t do what ever the hell they want (ie call in 80 out of 90 days, taking 1 hour breaks, having todo what their job description says) they just don’t care…
They also think “They’ll never out source our jobs, or robots can’t replace us!” When in fact management DID do that years ago but the Union won in deliberations and everyone seems to have forgotten.

I hate this timeline
I swear people are so goddamn dumb…
Fuck I just looked for work yesterday and found a union job pushing a pallet jack around for an overnight position: 60-75k!!
Every single other similar non union job: best I can do is 35k
