[QUOTE="bogeyball, post: 1066708, member: 14151"] [I] All of the aforementioned is true...but one; "that joining the union is a requirement" I chose to be in the union, had I been forced...well I probably wouldn't be responding to this thread. Granted the union has had its heyday, and rightly so. But if you look at the ever declining membership over the years. Its usefulness is declining, and it is my belief that this phenomena is a direct correlation to its members. I've seen this "me, me, me" attitude that works contrary to the overall mission of the union. We, my brothers are our own worst enemy! Rank and file has progressively gotten lazier, while asking for more. Filing selfish grievances paying no mind to the "unintended consequences"....and then wondering why the hell the "company" is screwing us. Look in the mirror friends....also, expect more states to adopt RTW legislation. Don't be fooled by the rhetoric coming out of Hoffa and the rest...lest we forget that the union spent 23 million in Michigan campaigning to amend the state constitution to put the union over the law. It lost by 15 points....seems that money could of been better utilized elsewhere. Just saying.[/i] [/QUOTE]
