I dont know about other unions, but krogers union just likes to stiff the employees. I agree a lot with whats said however, and Im not saying keep or get rid of unions, Im just throwing my 2 cents in. I know at kroger I was promised a raise every six months, in a year and a half I've got 1, because a new contract. And with this new contract I got a $.40/hr raise, but then the union dues went up. So my raise pretty much goes to the union. Also, the union protects the people who do nothing there. I work like twice as hard as others doing the same thing and get paid half, just because I havent been there as long. Theres other things they have done unfairly that are minor so I wont go into those. I know not all unions are the same, so Im not bashing other unions, I just dont like the one Im in. They may have kept me a job through this economy but thats about it. I know this is probably all biased, but I just wanted to rant about my crappy job so thats all.
