[QUOTE="theamazondude, post: 5407141, member: 101439"] unions are bad news, worked at many warehouse with unions. They are only there to steal money out of your paycheck. They are not there to make it easier for an employee. Take a look at UPS, the pay rate is 15.50 the same as amazon but they only offer partime only about 3-4 hours in most UPS locations. Yet amazon offers fulltime and the work load is less than UPS. UPS and fed ex have a heavier work load than amazon employees. The UPS bathrooms are dirty and old. Amazon has clean bathrooms and the break rooms offer a variety of food. Went to work for giant distribution. The union took $140 dollars on first day of work and I quit the first day. The bathrooms were dirty plus the they told me they would could search thru my car whenever they wanted. The atmosphere was unfriendly from day one and than they told me they were only hiring me as relief for there permanent employees that were going on summer vacations for weeks and after that I would laid off. So basically I would be only working to fill in space for all there workers for summer than I would be laid off. The union didn't help me instead they took the $140 on the first day. On orientation they walked me thru the entire building, I saw a bunch of old men just standing around talking yet the new employees were doing the heavy workload jumping in front of forklifts. I was like a steel toe isn't going to prevent my entire leg from being crushed. And why the friend are those old men just talking. With unions, I'm sure you got those top employees who get all the benefits that walk around doing nothing while the lesser ones do all the work. [/QUOTE]
