Hopefully the union puts progressive leadership in place.

I’ve been apart of good unions who want better labor rights for all and bad unions where it’s a seniority based fraternity.

Seniority is the foundation of unions. It plays some factor in nearly every workplace decision. Pay, promotion, leave, job bid etc have seniority as one of the factors

Oh I get it- it’s just annoying at times when you bid on something you’re qualified to do only to be out bid by someone who’s less qualified but more seniority

I never had the opportunity to work in a union . As a teen I worked in support of the Farmworkers strike in the Rio Grand ,Viva LA Helga.

Now all I do is sing the Union 🎵 song . I wanna join the C I O , cause everyone I see I owe.
