Kind of like the mindset of those poeple I mentioned earlier that are only interested in their slice of the pies rather than creating a limitless pie.
Plus, someone that has learned a "trade" is different from those production line employees that only get skilled with the one or two things they do. Those carpenters, plumbers, etc. can take that specific skill other places. Hopefully it will be where management actually allows them to use rather than abuse their craft.

sure... but Union buildings, worksites, etc. are usually all union or not. I happen to be lucky in one of my investments where I got the union workers, but then the rest of the site was built buy non union. The ones built by non, is currently in class action litigation as their place is falling apart.
the union labor is a better quality in this instance.
sure I agree with some things, such as a bag boy at the grocery store, I never understood why they had to be union. The old cashiers, sure, but today's electronic monkey that just wipes it over a bar code reader, no.
