Then negotiate. Stop fingerpointing.

Step 1: Figure it out.
Step 1.5: Spear the word.
Step 2: Negotiate.

Spread the word and they’ll try to get rid of you. Negotiate for yourself. Not everyone is worth more and some people actually prefer to stay on government subsidies like SNAP, and HEAP.

Negotiate alone with what leverage? We are all replaceable. As soon as they figure out it’s just you, they will fire you and pick someone else from the hundreds of thousands who have an equivalent skill set.

If you can’t negotiate your pay in a non-union job, then you’re not worth more pay and you should stop deceiving yourself.
You mention ‘skill set’. There are far more valuable qualities to employees like reliability, dedication, how well liked you are, etc etc. Somone not realizing this indicates a lack of value as an employee.

Negotiation almost de facto requires group effort, or a union. The only time negotiation works outside of that is edge cases.

Unions only help themselves. If you failed at negotiating; you over value yourself.
