Like Wayoutwest I was a union millwright for about 14 years and never regretted it. Left 8 years ago due to family needing me to be home. I've always regretting leaving and really miss the type of work we did. I now work for Texas Deptment of Criminal Justice as a Lock Tech. They treat their employees worse than any employer I've ever worked for.
the unions can be a good thing for sure...especially if the management tries to treat the employees bad the union keeps them in check..also union workers tend to make higher wages and have better benefits...
