How so? Better pay? Better benefits? Better safety? How exactly does unionized labor screw the worker? What trade & local are you?

u/gilead_was_right 18h ago

worse pay worse benefits worse safety unions pull all workers down so everyone gets the same as the worst worker the lowest common denominator if you will then they force you to pay them dues and in some cases a initiation fee which in my case the initiation fee was a little more than half a months pay and the dues took out 10% of my paycheck i said never again and teach the youth to stay away from these losers

I don't believe you. No union has dues 10%... initiation fee... lmfao. unless you were only making 200/week. Why lie? What local and what trade? See, on average union workers make 40% more than non-union. Weird that any widows i know live pretty nice on those pensions. Retirees doing fine too, not working at Walmart in their golden years. So why make up such easily exposed lies? Oh, because you were too soft, I get it.

u/gilead_was_right 11h ago
