Yeah, I know that in the past they have been used for better worker conditions, but nowadays people who overwork their staff or treat them poorly just don't recognize them. Any other union is just arguing over getting paid another dollar an hour every few years. If you're part of a union then you're not likely to go anywhere else in the company or promoted. You just have to hope that in a few years the union will get you an extra buck or else you'll have to strike.

Just one of the many ways US companies control things they really should not.

I briefly worked at UPS a few ago and the union there seemed pretty important. They were responsible for a lot of rules about how many hours drivers could work and how much rest time they got before another shift. Having pressure like that opposing the drive to push employees as hard as possible during peak seasons curbs a lot of potential abuse.

Unions are like flight attendants: Most of the time, they're kind of useless and annoying, but pray you never have to rely on them to do their actual job.
