@BRETTALEXANDER1 Pointless? * Negotiates and enforces the contract, Settles your grievances, ORGANIZES, Prepares necessary paperwork, insurances, etc. Keeps you informed; holds meetings, Supports fair labor legislation, Furnishes legal protection, Acts in your interest w/ the community as well as the management....Need I say more?

@Donnysdonuts420 You are truly a moron. Do you even know what a union is? I have a feeling that a lot of your trailer trash ancestors belonged to unions. Why do you think we have labor laws now? Before, employers paid workers extremely low wages to work in inhumane conditions. I guess you like working like that. I don't. No, not all unions are good but don't down all unions in one big generalization you fucking redneck trash.

I like how union pricks price themselves out of jobs then use force to scare the working "rats" who "stole" their work. How about getting off your whiny lazy commie asses and working for yourself or can you not get a job based on your own merit?

Why join a union? Answer: Workers unorganized are weak. Workers organized are strong. What does job security mean? Protection against being discharged without sufficient reason. Courage and faith in the future is fundamental to success. There will always be tempory dips in our economy; however, living standards in our country continue to march forward, and always will. The best time to plan and forge ahead is when others are afraid. ONE FLAG, ONE LAND, ONE HEART, ONE HAND.

No fair individual can ignore the fact that History proves that unions have accomplished miracles to improve the lot, not only of the worker, but company and country as well. Unions have: promoted security, have given all a chance to advance, have assured more humane treatment and dignity, and have amicably settled thousands of disputes. Let the records show that unions are making, and will continue to make, valuable contributions to higher standards of life.
