How unions fail to work. The answer they do not. Management fails to do their job and when things are good spend on everything but there business. GM / Ford bought banks. Worker who make things do not design them so who then? Management again fails. Teachers stay under a probationary period. Where is the management [principle] at? Automobile's well that is management who has the say over what a person makes and how it designed. Steel is a good two fold example. First we built the factories in Europe after WW2 and in Japan. We built the ones in Korea in 1953. Here the companies never updated the mills. Profits in the 1940’s,50’s never went to the mills only to the company, again management. Trucking has always worked, it is a regional business, trains haul to centralized points and trucks from there on. Truckers are blamed by management because they want rules so they cannot drive more them 18 hours a day. Remember no overtime for the 18 hours. We tend to ‘blame’ the workers when management has failed at all turns because of greed. Please look at the banks and wall street. Are you a do nothing worker? I do not think that of anyone, management has power to tell you and get rid of you. I worked for 36 years in management and the place was unionized. Most managers go to personnel now human resources and talk about what to do are told do nothing. I had many fired and the union never complained because I documented everything as a manager has to do. 80% are good, 10% need watching and talking to and 10% you tell they need to find another job. Schools are odd because parents “like” a teacher who is bad and will go to the school board over the principle, He/She [ principle] needs to resign and tell the public why.
