Lets keep in mind, that as stated by someone, that the idea of unions is still good and valid. And there is a need. There are alot of smaller unions that still do great things. But there are some (the largest at times) that lose their way. Attempting to justify their existence.
Bad people on both sides many times. Greed exists in individuals, corporations, unions, etc.
When i did a short stint at ATT during school, they had unions there. They presented, etc and pretty much pressured the join. Those who did not join were bullied in a way. When it came down to a incident at work where I followed the released bulliten to the entire enterprise, and my boss did not read it, thus raised the issue as to why I was doing the task. The union, protected her as a long standing member stating that I should not challenge a senior union member who has worked here for a while. I quit.
