    Teamster here.

    I literally had three members yell at me for suggesting that Republicans hate unions.

    I laughed in their faces and told them to save as much as they can.

          They are. I manage 30 union employees. Most of em hate the union since it puts the bar to the lowest asshole who fucks around everywhere. But they voted it in for another department having just as many people and way more fuck ups.

            I was a union branch president. Can confirm most of the guys WHO NEED the union to keep their job DESPISE the union they are in. Totally lack any self awareness…Propaganda is a hell of a drug

              Fucking really. Some fuck told me to stop filing so much… Only reason he has a job he because management pities him too much to go through the process of firing his ass.
