I've worked in a warehouse for six years where union membership dropped from 80% to 30%, and now our shifts get changed with 24 hours' notice while management cites 'flexibility' as the reason. Companies argue unions slow down decision-making, but what I've seen is that without collective bargaining, safety training got cut and two coworkers lost fingers on the line. Do the costs of unionized labor, like higher wages and stricter rules, really outweigh the benefits of protecting workers from arbitrary decisions? I'm not convinced that a 10% pay cut is worse than having no say over whether I work nights or get a lunch break at all.
