there was already a union in jfk8 in ny and the president was some clown who
just took trips with the money that was donated to the union. i dont think
anybody joined and the union is broke. then teamsters stepped in.
Teamsters do this fake amazon strike that never happened. they pay their people
to stand outside an amazon, they take photos and vids with signs and they go
home.
Unions are a good idea for trades, but amazon, wafflehouses[saw they are trying
to do a union], walmart employees, starbucks, and other mid to low skilled jobs
dont need a union. infact, walmart has real good insurance, even for part
time employees. that's probably why older people are working at walmart.
The video i saw about the wafflehouse union, they were just complaining about
how they get 3 bucks a day taken out for a meal. They don't need a union to
stop that. just tell your boss you dont want a meal.
uspostal needs a union to handle pensions and healthcare. usps is such a poorly
ran entity they need a watchdog on that. Otherwise the usps union is toothless
and useless. You still have to do what you are told, even though it's breaking
rules or unsafe. You then grieve it and get money.
The person i started with at usps didn't get her paycheck for over a month. most
people need that money. the union didn't help her get paid.
