[QUOTE="Superteeth2478, post: 3922475, member: 73024"] Unions have a good reason to accept mediocrity. Mediocre workers means you need more workers to get the job done. More workers means more dues. That said, first off, there are TONS of mediocre workers in all workplaces, unionized and non-unionized. Second off, the vast majority of white collar workers really don't do very much productive work besides shuffling papers all day. Most of their time is spent chit-chatting around the cooler, :censored:ing around on Facebook, and trying to look busy at their desk. I've always said that even the laziest workers at my hub are still doing more productive work in the 4-5 hours they work than salaried office workers do the whole week. Finally, I've met some of the hardest workers I've seen in my life at UPS. It speaks great volumes of their character if they choose to work hard at a manual labor job in which they know they could get away with less. And yes, they're part of the union as well. [/QUOTE]
