[QUOTE="hoser, post: 127176, member: 6357"] Unionization should only happen if employees want it to happen, that is, when the employer is dicking around with their employees. This doesn't seem to be the case, especially when the VP sends a DVD to all employees to explain his side and say "we'll be stopping by in every shop to answer your questions". Just a question, why were the teamsters striking in 1999 against overnight? Were the trucks in the video scabs or overnight employees who wouldn't show solidarity with another stupid teamster strike? Because some people don't know how good they have it. Once you're unionized, you can't go back. If employers are smart, they run an efficent business but they don't have to work their employees far into the ground. Then employees unionize, and because labour costs shoot up, the employers demand a lot of efficency out of their employees. You think if you take the union out of the picture, we'd still get good pay [I]and[/I] get worked into the ground? It's something you have to live with, people... [/QUOTE]
