Wait over worked that bad? Every time someone is overworked people say “Unions are the solution”… UAW is one of the most powerful out there, so why are they being overworked if a union is supposed to solve all these problems?
So what you’re saying is that either unions already did everything they’re supposed to do or they’re worthless?
Speaking of “one of the most powerful out there”, the auto industry is a malevolent behemoth itself, a formidable adversary of any union. If not for UAW, the conditions and wages would be much more atrocious for sure.
UAW has been around for almost 90 years, they should be collectively bargaining for all their workers. 80 years, and they still are overworked… considering that’s the point that everyone seems to agree they think a union is supposed to solve, they probably should have figured something for that in all that time?
There’s a lot a union does, but if their purpose is to avoid letting workers get fucked over, I think most people would agree 60-70 hours a week is getting fucked over.
i beleive it. i work in a union warehouse and we can be made to work overtime or take an attendance point. if the company isnt hiring, or not hiring enough, then the poeple who do work there will have to pick up the slack.
