[QUOTE="quadro, post: 709889, member: 12850"] No need to apologize, honest mistake. That's just it. I don't know what I will get with a union contract. I might get higher $$/hour or I might not. I might get cheaper/better benefits or I might not. Etc, etc. I've been around a long time (20+ years) and worked at almost a dozen different locations and my personal experience isn't what some around here characterize as the norm for Express. I've seen far more pro-employee decisions than I've seen pro-company decisions. For example, poor performance that I would have fired someone for but the employee is still here. Employees getting hurt and not only being welcomed back but given their route back. I am not that naive to think that bad decision or mistakes are never made. They happen and will continue to happen. There's no guarantee that a union contract would solve that issue. Union members don't always get what they want either. I have simply evaluated what I have, what I've seen, what I've read, and what I've heard. For me, that means that I believe a union is not for me. I could be completely wrong and be better off with a union but that's not a gamble I'm personally willing to take. [/QUOTE]
