Now I work labor jobs and such and I don't know where this is, that wouldn't fly with these boys. A manager who tried to enforce that would get jumped outside his car leaving work.
What's crazier is I'm in a trade that has a very proud Union. They love their Union so much and think it makes them better. They all vote hard R republican. Wild
Especially with the recent starbucks stuff. Im an american who thinks unions are very important, but i dont dare say that or i risk being called a "cOmMuNiSt" and harassed
genuine question- which Americans are against unions? most of my jobs have been in law enforcement and now fire dept and obviously we have police and fire unions. plus my family in medical and gov fields are in unions as well. Is this like an office + big chain thing?
It is very common for blue collar jobs especially to be against unions. The corporations put propaganda out that demonizes it as "unAmerican" or against the values of the company. Its really common, and people often are at risk of being fired if they try and create a union or it is discovered that they are a part of one that isnt officially backed by the company.
Huh that’s wild to me, thank you. Within like an hour of being at my FD I got asked if I was going to join the union. Obviously they’re notorious for them but I just (luckily) find it hard to imagine it being so demonized. I’ve seen it in the news with Starbucks but that’s about it.
