You would think unions would be better employers right?
Not!!! Actually in my 35 years of working in many industries, working in labor has been the absolute worst. I’ve really never seen so many narcissistic gaslighting liars in one spot. The crap runs downhill faster than the gravitational pull of Jupiter.
I was hired a few months ago and was told it’s a permanent position, only to find out it’s temporary after I quit my previous position. I went through the hideous training they forced us to go through; which ended up being a PowerPoint presentation stolen from another union. The assistant loves to say “fake it until you make it” which seems to be par of the course.
The supervision is less to be desired and the metrics are outlandish. It’s somewhat of a joke to think these people worked in their craft and supposedly fought against management only to become managers and bad ones at that.
From what I can tell promotions are based on nepotism or kneeling in a favorable position, servicing the ones ahead of them.
If you’re skillful forget it. The managers will tell you your idea sucks and then steals it from you only to take the credit.
Again, I know HR is only there to protect the organization but an organization that is in existence to protect worker and they allow racist and sexist behavior towards their own?
A union which union busts their own; yes it seems about right.
