I have to agree with you on that. Spent over 30 years working in a union shop and the attitude from the brass was always that they knew better and that we should trust them.

Can't afford to go on a strike? Suck it up and find another job to cover your lost wages if strike pay isn't enough. Arrogant and condescending.

Union members have to step up and be more vocal with thier thoughts and stop being mindless sheep for the greater cause. Use that brain that god gave you and look at the situation from both sides and don't be swayed by the biased info the brass gives you.
