What might have started as a means to protect hard-working folks from abuse from employers has turned into a means to sustain lazy incompetent individuals drawing salaries they could never justify on their personal performance.
Unions have come a long way from their early days to what today continues just to be something that so closely functions as "organized crime"
What happened to the Win-Win understanding?
I "look for the union label" and know that I am paying too much for something that could easily be a poorly produced product.
I say that knowing there are great union workers out there turning out superior products everyday. But their system does not protect us and their industry from the incompetents that can no longer be managed.
And don't get me started on teachers.
When you have union workplaces with “non-working” union stewards and officials hanging around all day with nothing to do but stir up trouble, you get exactly what we’re seeing.
