unions bring good and bad to the work place. yes they can serve to "protect" those called "bad" employees but also those "good" employees who have been stuck with improper workplace standards or grievances. remember without unions, we wouldn't have some of the employee rights that are in place now.

unions worked back in the early 1900's to help protect and save lives of employees from sweatshop workers who were being killed and injured with no course of action or protection. like having breaks? lunch? safety in the workplace? standard pay? thank a union.

but as far as this discussion from the original poster they really have nothing to do with the post. I doubt having union membership increases the odds of someone calling another person "hon or honey"
