I was in a union for five years. In fact, I think it was the same union Baddog was in - CWA, Communications Workers Of America. (Phone company.)
To be honest with you I didn't give it much thought back then. Seemed like a huge waste of time to me. Anytime there was any kind of disciplinary the union had to sit in on it. On top of that, thanks in large part to the union, we had employees who worked there for twenty years who performed at the bare minimum. It was sick really.
