Management sometimes is their own worst enemy....hence the creation of unions in the first place. Not a fan of unions, but not a fan of unscrupulous, greedy, malicious management either. I’ve dealt with both, good and bad. The flaws in the human condition often surface when greed and power are entangled. Sad.

I’ve worked union (UPS) and non-union (WalMart, Amazon). I know many here won’t like to hear it but I preferred working union. Not saying there isn’t corruption in unions but at least the little guy has a bit of muscle behind him. When I was there, I thought Walmart and Amazon were horrible to their employees, setting unrealistic productivity goals, riding them constantly. One employee of Amazon said: They just want you to destroy your body and then they kick you to the curb.

Not blaming these companies totally, this is about a bigger issue in society. Godless secularism results in materialism and an insane push for profits which results in the worker being reduced to an object to be used and discarded. Anti-God secularism spawns so many evils in society.
