[QUOTE="SloppyJoes7, post: 788807, member: 31997"] In [U]no way[/U] was I silent. I addressed the issue directly. If I were a driver for UPS, I would likely not consider the union as "helping" me. I would think the pay and benefits would have been better without the union. I argued that your question had a false premise. crowbar, you are incredibly condescending. You are rude, obnoxious, and extremely quick to jump to conclusions. While I think nearly everyone else here has been polite and courteous, you have gone out of your way to demean and insult anybody who dares to dislike unions. You find it implausible that anybody could actually be intelligent and disagree with you. Because you have claimed to be a "steward," (which I've figured is a representative of the union), you have strongly soured me against the UPS union. You have admitted that you treat non-members differently than members, which by accounts in this thread, appears to be illegal. You even gave an example where you believed a man had been treated unfairly, then stood by as his "idealistic notions" were shot down. When it comes to your treatment of non-members, you seem to try and see what you can get away with, rather than doing the upright thing. You have said that non-members are willfully ignorant and prejudiced. You have then encouraged me to burn the Wealth of Nations, which arguably, is the basis of the American economic system. What hypocrisy. I perfectly understand that people disagree with me. The union wouldn't exist unless a lot of people wanted it. The driver I worked with was a great guy, and we still know each other by name to this day. I believe most members sincerely believe the union benefits and stands up for them. But if you're in any way representative of the average union steward, then I would want NOTHING to do with it. [/QUOTE]
