Why is it an "insult"? It's not extra holidays - it's days off on
account of extra hours worked!
Well, I find it insulting as I don't get time off because of the
extra hours I work
Then why don't you join a strong union that's prepared to fight to get
you something like that? Maybe even become a shop steward and organise
that industrial action yourself? If you don't, you've only got yourself
to blame.
and I would imagine the millions of people working for the many
companies in many industries that don't leech of public money, and
don't have a corrupt union propping them up might feel similarly
about the situation.
Corrupt? You're saying a union doing what unions are *supposed* to do
counts as corrupt?
Now, if the union was collecting membership fees, putting them straight
into the pockets of its executives, and doing *nothing* for its members
in return, then *that* would be corrupt.
But a union that's prepared to actually get out there and fight for its
members, surely that's the exact opposite of corruption.
