re: Trigger Warning: UMC nurses in NO vote to unionize

So you are okay with getting fricked in a large organization? Because that is what you are saying. You are thinking that your direct supervisor see that ole Roger is a real go getter and he wants a few bucks more and you are thinking that based on recommendation of supervisor someone up the latter is going to give ole Rog that money?

Maybe in a smaller organization, but in behemoths like Ochsner, that determination is made by someone who does not even know the supervisor....so you get fricked on your request.

Oh, but then I will take my skills elsewhere and negotiate what I'm worth. If you are a skilled hourly worker.....good luck. The employer knows then that they collectively have you as an individual over a barrel....usually face down.
