Most of you guys are a bunch of entitled cry babies who probably tried to get in a union but was rejected. I see it all the time.
You haven’t a clue who I am or anything about me. But if you’d have read the entire thread you’d know I’d prefer EVERYTHING be made in the United States.

What I DONT want is the union mentality that they must be the only people on the planet who can do anything thus they must be paid a lot and guaranteed their job for life.

I’ve never once wanted to work in a union and never tried to get in one. I’ve worked for two companies in 21 years after I earned my associates degree in electronics and have made a really good career of it. Everything I’ve earned I’ve worked hard for and now make what the “top tier” UAW members make. I’ve never felt that a union would make my job or my life any better. My salary increases over the years have been the result of working hard without being asked or told what to do and being willing to do more than my “job description”. I have excellent job security, a consistent paycheck of 80 hours every two weeks, I work M-F 6:30-3:00, and will probably retire from where I work today.

I really don’t want to sound like I’m bragging because I know there’s people reading this who are doing even better than me. I’m just asking you to understand why unions really do not make sense for anyone today: employees or companies.
