And this was by pro-union workers! I originally found the story on this clearly anti-union site @ http://laborunionreport.com/2014/05...-pro-union-workers-want-uaw-to-leave-alabama/ But, it had a bunch of links, one to http://www.al.com/business/index.ssf/2014/05/pro-union_employees_at_alabama.html Are they telling us something?
Workers are becoming more and more adverse to unions. Aside from union associations with organized crime, they have seen the massive amounts of their money given to politicians who betray them, and the high life styles of the union officials that is paid for by the workers.
Yea, cause all workers know better pay and benefits really suck. Better to contribute to company profits and executive jets and stuff.
Did you perhaps mean 'averse' - you can suffer adverse circumstances, but you cannot be 'adverse' to something. Back OT, I expect labour unions are like every other human organisation - some efficient, and others less so. In the absence of fair minded and generous employers, they are something of a 'necessary evil'. Possibly the best defence against being subjected to the vicissitudes of labour unions, is to obtain professional qualifications and go into practice for yourself. But even my uncle, who has taken silk, is a member of the Law Society (a professional organisation which acts on behalf of the legal profession).
UAW decides to skip election and form union at VW anyway They just won't stop, will they? In spite of the workers not wanting them and it being a Right to Work state, union bosses are absolutely determined to stick their big noses in where they're not wanted.

The election was fairly close, and VW is hoping the union wins the next election, so they can have the works councils as part of their production. VW is a responsible employer when it comes to unions and employees, so kudos to them.
