    Dues deduct from your paycheck

    So does every other subscription "service.", but we don't talk about the vileness of a Netflix subscription do we?

    No guarantees on pay, benefits, or work rules

    This is just a lie. I cannot find another angle to it.

    Even without a union, there is no guarantees on pay, benefits, or work rules. So the point is moot. It's like saying "Anything is possible" and walking away like you said something sagely.

    Typically must go through union instead of your supervisor or manager

    Most people wouldn't understand why this matters unless you've been apart of a job where your manager has defended you against your supervisors. Very few people have had this happen, but the idea is that you will have people that DEFEND YOU from your supervisors getting power hungry.

    It's not even like your supervisor can't bring accusations against you, it just means that complaints would have to have merit.

    dues were paying a couple lawyers to make sure company followed the law and own rules. mgmt is usually jealous of union pay. except upper mgmt(profit sharing) typically union will give better advice in any disputes.

    In a world were people will gladly vote to put in position of power the same guy that trampled on them, it is not that surprising that people will root for the company that is drying them out to discard them faster.

    Sadly.

    There are some serious issues with unions. For instance sometimes workers are tricked into signing papers that allow the union to have control over the worker. I’m not condoning Amazon but to say Unions aren’t always great.

      What kind of fucked up unions do you have there? Unions are there to help the worker by negotiating better pay, vacation days, etc. It’s like your local political representative that actually does things you want and gives you money when you’re on strike.

    This makes me want to re-watch the based as fuck Deep Space Nine episode (Bar Association) where Quark's bar staff go on strike.

    I mean, it’s not many companies that don’t try to put up a fight against this. I don’t think this is anything particularly unusual. Why is this infuriating? Would you expect them to not do this? That would be /mildlyshocking
