People act like jobs don’t ask illegal questions but in different ways with zero retaliation. The smaller the company, the less they gaf

Protip: if they mention unions in any way during your interview, you need to be in a union.

A company will get the union it deserves.

If you are an employee and not a member of a union you are only hurting yourself.

Until this very moment I always assumed the job had to be affiliated with a union for me to even join… I had been a refrigeration tech for some time and never in the union when apparently I could have been?

Now I’m just a shitty factory worker so I doubt there’s a union for what I’m doing, but to know I could have had union backing and I didn’t go for it is frustrating. :/

if they confront you just say you thought they talked about the European Union, they can’t prove you didn’t

“So are you pro-union?”

“Not since Kruschev was removed.”

“What?”
