The thing is that it hurts the employer just as much as the workers if everyone quits, so if you unionize first, then threaten to stop working, then you’ve got someone who can negotiate with the employer so that you don’t have to quit and you get paid enough to not make you want to quit.
They accept it because what else can they do? A lot of them aren’t in unions and even if all of them quit, how are they going to find new jobs?

If the corporations are making record profits, that means theyre hiring, it means you can go work for a rival.
I’m looking. The problem is I have sort of a weird and eclectic resume, which doesn’t look great to employers.
