When I was younger I worked somewhere that was unionized for 10 years. I thought it was fantastic. I had job security, I would see raises when they negotiated contracts, etc. Now, we're at a point where you are threatened to be fired if you mention an union. Everyone is scared to talk about it. Look at Wal-Mart for example.
After digging around, I've discovered unions aren't as frowned upon outside of the U.S. In fact, when I search unions, mostly articles trying to explain how they're terrible pop up. In those articles it's mostly management complaining. Can someone try to educate me as to why unions are so "terrible" in the U.S.? Also, if you currently work at a unionized place can you share your experience? Do you love it or hate it?
