Like the ###### in the confessions thread wearing the sock puppet to antagonize his superior. Insubordination is not tolerated anywhere else, so why do union peons get away with it?
And it's the useless tits that continue to be employed that eventually drag down the company. The piss poor attitude of one guy is evident in his work. And then the next guy, who is actually giving it 95% sees that the jerk off next to him is getting away with murder (late all the time, call in sick as often as possible, long breaks, punch out on the very dot of 5) and it erodes his work ethic. And eventually, you have a big mass of people that are all working at 70% capacity that are too afraid to work harder than the other people because it's against the culture.

Couldn't agree more.
Then said crappy employee gets promoted all because of the seniority BS.
Why bother rewarding hard work and excellence and letting the cream rise to the top when you can let the slackers run the ship? Nothing like a union to kill productivity.
