Indeed I have found a home that I like. I have a good schedule, good pay and I know when my next check is coming. I was union once and I never felt the “for me” attitude. Heck, I was given 2 different dates for getting off a ship I was on and the only thing I got from the reps was a bunch of grief saying I was stiring the pot. All I wanted to do was figure out the correct date I was getting off. As far as the 7 figure pension, last I heard, all the unions were losing their rear and all the pensions were in the red. I guess this is still true, I haven’t heard any different.
To each their own for sure. Some people have done very well in the unions, I didn’t and I moved on.
