I worked with union workers in my former job. Our technicians couldn't plug in a game. That was only a job for a union worker. No problem, right? Except that when the union worker didn't want to go onto their next task, they would disappear and go on the "break game" where you would have to run around trying to find them or another worker that could plug in the game for you so you could set it up. Go a few miles up to CT and work with the Gaming Commission and it was a different story. Sure, they sometimes had some internal issues but they were ready to help us out and move quickly because "time is money". We had an entirely different schedule for working in RI vs CT. 1 to 2 days in CT. Finished by Friday in RI.

I am all for protection and rights but when it is used to be lazy and entitled, count me out. I am not sure when it changed from being a body guard to a mob enforcer but it certainly isn't something I wish to be part of. I have a great job that rewards me for being a good worker, producing results and providing me with sick days, time off and other benefits. As long as I do my part, they do their part.
