Do you like weekends? Thank unions. Do you like sick pay? Thank unions. Do you like overtime pay? Thank unions.
Unions make your job better even if you’re not in one by fighting for your rights as much as theirs. They want your pay to be as good as their pay.
Our union calendars love mentioning that shit, but it’s like me bragging about a second grade vocabulary test. Our union leadership recommended we accept a contract that 80% of the members voted against. I’m not going to get into pension and 401k fuckery, but we can’t just dogmatically say unions are great and cite 100 year old wins. Unions need to work for their dues.
Do you like dead beat workers bringing down your earning potential? - Thank unions! DO you like having your employer not able to provide suitable work for you when injured? -Thank unions! Do you like someone forcing you to fork over a portion of your taxable income? - Thank unions! Do you like people abusing ‘sick time’? - Thank unions!
A lot of “Temporary Embarrassed Billionaire” vibes.
A lot of predatory union propaganda. Be sure to call your union to down-vote, because that’s the kind of stupid collective shit unions do.
and guess what? it works.
Yes, blame your co-workers for everything. It must be their faults. They’re all “deadbeats” and “abusers.”
Also, your job is supposed to provide for you when you’re injured.
No, that’s called mooching. Freeloader.
It’s mooching to get compensated for injuries while at work? Really?
And they would have if the Union didn’t interfere with their job codes bullshit.
Sure they would have. And worked 10 hour days 7 days a week with no overtime or safety protections or health insurance.
10 hours? before Unions, it was 16 hours! and people would sleep on literal ropes! look up the origin of hangover
