Agreed. If I owned a business, I sure wouldn't want to deal with a union. As an employee, I've never wanted one.IMO the owner has the right to discontinue his business if he so desires.
It's like taking your annual salary and buying gift cards for a store that goes out of business the next day
No, it's like spending your annual salary on gifts cards KNOWING that the store will be driven out of business if they honor yours.
I don't have much respect for the union at Kroger. The one I worked at had an employee fired for sexual harassment. It was a cut and dry case. the union got him his job back. Not only that, they got him a new position that paid better and had a company car.

Never was in a union. One thing that would bother me is being paid the same as everyone else. I prefer my pay to be linked to what management thinks I am worth. In my work years I only worked for three companies. If you have a problem with your job, you always have the option to leave and go work somewhere else.
I'll grant that unions served a purpose in our history, but that was well over 100 years ago.
I disagree with this. Since we already kill something like 1.2 workers every year at my plant, and almost EVERY safety problem is addressed through the union.
