Where did you work in Alabama or for that matter any state that forced you to join USW and pay dues in an organization that apparently you didn’t want no part of?

40yrs. How’s that pension of retirement and those other benefits working out for you?

My pension comes from International Paper! I never got anything from the USW but a plucking. Don’t believe me? Send me a PM. I’ll tell you all about it!

Trust me there was plenty of pressure to join the Local and pay dues.

Oh it’s not the Union. It’s the Union members. Different mill different cultures.

Nearly 75% voted in favor of the UAW at VW.
Given those numbers in Chattanooga…my guess is that it will pass at Mercedes.

I’m really surprised the UAW didn’t target Hyundai and Kia first
Between Texas to South Carolina there’s like 12+ non union plants

Well, at least I’ve got my points in and can retire at any time now. Mercedes has already went to hell in a hand basket. If the UAW gets voted in, that will be the nail in the coffin.

Koreans, like you and me, would prefer that the business and industry World would operate along the same basic principals that it did in 1958. If a secretery does not like getting you coffee and you grabbing her ass then she needs to find another job. We got products to make and no time for complaints.

If those dumbasses vote for Detroit Unions, they get what they deserve!! Mercedes has constantly expanded since they came, that will halt and the democrats will just get lazier.

Maybe that’s the reason for the union vote apparently the workers are not happy with the way Mercedes is treating them and hoping that UAW will get them to a decent position. I know the unions are not perfect but I truly believe the mass production industry automakers, paper etc. jobs need the unions or the companies would run over them.

I get if you don’t like it you don’t have to stay however, there’s a segment of the population that wants, needs, has to work because of their circumstances and going somewhere else is not an option and the money is decent.

About every 10 years the union clowns try us at Delta. Why? It’s for the lazy folks. The ones that call in sick all the time. Fake injury. No union for me.
