El Blanco This might shock many of you, but I am actually very pro-union.

This just happens to be one of those details I don't like. Union shops force all employees to join. They are protected by New York State law.

I understand that unions main power lies within their numbers and that anyone who leaves puts a serious dent, but should this really be protected by law? What if your local is on the company payroll or corrupt in some other way (like when I worked as a teamster)? Shouldn't a person have the right to speak on their own behalf?

The One and Only... You are, if you can't understand why an employer would make his workers join unions.

Does anyone else see the irony here?

According to the NLRA, employers cannot force their employees to leave unions, because that would be unfair labor practice - but he can force his employees to join unions.

Talk about the plight of the worker.
