Just remember there is someone out there that will due your job for
less. I work for a major airline that has a union and we were forced to
give back allot. 17.5% in pay, one weeks vacation, 5 holidays at (2.5 times
straight time), lost 5 sick days, overtime after 4 hours was double time,
now time and a half. Add it all up we lost about 20%. That's not including
that medical is going thought the roof. And our union did little to stop
it. The next thing the company will go for is our pension. So if a large
company can do this to its employees that have a union, just think what will
happen if you don't have union. If a few large companies start taking back
benefits and get away with it other companies will follow. Unions are
needed now more then ever.

Do you know that unions now make up less than 10% of the US workforce,
with that figure shrinking every year?

Unions were indeed once needed. They played a very important part in
making work places safe and raising the income standards for workers. But
that was 75 to 100 years ago.

Their time has passed however. Their high wage and benefits demands,
combined with their keeping unfit and incompetent workers has led to their
demise.
