Unions ... especially public sector unions can often get too much power and go way too far.

I used to work in an office where if you wanted to move a piece of equipment like a photocopier we actually had to have a union representitive present and in some cases union permission. You virtually had to kill someone to get the sack, and if you worked too hard you often got in trouble with your union. It was crazy. Unions do serve some important roles, but more often than not they just stand in the way of progress and productivity.. especially public sector unions.

But what I don't understand over there about this fiasco that is playing out, is how can politicians just up and leave and go into hiding, yet not get sacked or get in any trouble? You pulled that stunt here and your career would be toast.
