A lot of conservatives i know poopoo unions, right up until the point that they need one to go to bat for them.. Perfect example, i have an uncle who is a big MAGA guy, works at a plant and got fired.. he claimed it was an unjust firing and the union he was mandatorily required to be a part of took his case and fought for his back pay, job reinstatement etc... My uncle got what he was fairly entitled to, but still talks ish about unions.. Typical hypocrisy.


While that is one case that I guess you can say it was worth it, most of the time it is not. What I see is unions protecting the lazy who don't do their jobs. They had their time and were effective. Now, not so much.

Getting fired doesnt entitle you to getting unfired just because you belong to a union. Employers should be able to fire you.

I worked at a union plant but wasn't in the union. I saw several people fired for damn good reason and then show back up a few months later.
