    Imagine how shitty that job would have been without a union!

    Unions dont make shitty jobs better, dude, get a clue.

      I don’t think these problems should be dismissed out of hand. There is guidance out there on how to take back a shitty union.

      The UAW has long been neutered with poor leadership, and sometimes leadership that gets thrown in jail for good reasons. They’ve recently rebuilt and are making huge gains.

        I’m in the UAW, we used to not be able to vote on leadership. Now we can, and with a guy like Shawn Fain in the big chair I feel like we’ve already come a long way. I voted for him and I’ll do it again.

      It’s fine though I quit it and got a normal non union job that’s incredible. Better starting pay better benefits more time off no forced OT while I can work as much OT I want. Gravy job so glad I quit.
