Re: Is It Really That Bad?

said by gfd :

I try and avoid union workers whenver possible. Anyone that can't stand on the merits of their work and has to strongarm a business through mob tacticts to keep a job is not someone I want to do business with. Union labor is of subpar quality. You know it is.
Actually, no, I don't. And you could easily look up a number of history-oriented forums discussing the merits of modern-day unions without me having to correct you. But I suspect you'd rather not deal with something that doesn't agree with your point of view.

The very idea that you think a union "mob" is attempt to "strongarm" their employer is beyond idiotic. You do understand that employers have ALL THE LEVERAGE and individual workers have absolutely NO POWER without unions, right? Unions only attempt to even the playing field so employers can't take advantage of their employees and treat them like dirt for the sake of profit, which they have HISTORICALLY DONE since venture capitalists gained prominence during the Renaissance.

You have a naive notion of how unions work lately.
Ask any citizen of Toronto last month who were strong armed and threatened by their employees who collect the garbage.
$25.00 an hour and banked sick days that are cashed out when you retire are not good enough for these guys.

So every employer out there is going to take advantage of their employees without a union. I find that very difficult to believe.

No, there are great companies. The worst ones are usually union.

People who work for Honda here in America are happy and no union. People in Detroit are like, "Where's that Obama fella?"

JobVent.com is a good place to see if your employees like or hate your guts.
