    That’s been my beef with unions. Awesome idea in theory, terrible in practice. I swear my local union is more interested in recruiting and collecting dues then representing it’s members. They let contracts negotiations lapse for years before doing anything, then fight for a paltry wage increase that’s fallen behind because of the lapses between negotiations.
