I thought it was the employee's job to protect their job and benefits by making themselves valuable to the employer.Define good management. I define it as protecting my job and benefits. Our management does a good job of that sometimes.

Ok, then why is it set so low if the company sets it? They are really that dumb? I am not…When doing piece rate work the company sets the rate not the union.
This is a management problem the fact that they didn't do anything is because they were to lazy to go through the steps.He ended up shutting down the entire line and calling his foreman over on me. After speaking to the foreman and explaining the issue, he refused to do anything about it because... "union". So I guess it was more acceptable to have to re-work hundreds if not thousands of transmissions than to **** off a union employee by making him do it the correct way.
LMAO! You start by saying, "no one is disparaging union workers". Then you proceed to disparage union workers. ?
Not all jobs are created equal. Yes an employee should be valuable, but they shouldn't have to worry about their livelihood when they refuse to do something that will get them injured or killed.I thought it was the employee's job to protect their job and benefits by making themselves valuable to the employer.
I thought the foremen were also union, just in a supervisory position? But I do agree with your first two sentences.This is a management problem the fact that they didn't do anything is because they were to lazy to go through the steps.
There are crappy workers in Union shops and non union shops. Seen many union workers disciplined for not doing a job correctly or safely.
Don't know how things are today as I retired in 2009 but the union at Marion GM at the time knew for them to survive the company had to make money.
Hell it's not even noob managers for us, it's managers with 5+ years experience.We've had noob managers get reamed out at discipline hearings, by THEIR superiors, because the noob manager F'D up and almost killed someone or cost the company millions of $$
Understood, and I don't disagree!Not all jobs are created equal. Yes an employee should be valuable, but they shouldn't have to worry about their livelihood when they refuse to do something that will get them injured or killed.
No clue but I have seen a lot of piece rate work where I worked and if they were good and honest they could get that days quota out in 5 to 6 hours. Sometimes a problem with a press or forktruck going down would mess it up for them but never seen or heard of anyone running a whole weeks worth in 4 hours.Ok, then why is it set so low if the company sets it?

I've never considered myself "experienced" until I've been at a job for 10 years at a minimum. I've been at my current job for 12 years and I still feel "new".5+ years experience.
Anyone less than 10 years, is a noobHell it's not even noob managers for us, it's managers with 5+ years experience.
We had incentive, based on tonnage going out the door.No clue but I have seen a lot of piece rate work where I worked and if they were good and honest they could get that days quota out in 5 to 6 hours.

The rate was daily based at GM and even if someone ran ahead the counter started again the next day.
Well then by that definition we very rarely get a supervisor that's not a noob. I think we have one that would meet that. There's a pretty big turnover in the frontline management.Anyone less than 10 years, is a noob
They are the result of unproductive work rules of a union shop. Management may be stupid but not that stupid.These bizarre examples you give are the result of poor company management. That's not the fault of the union.
If you actually think it was in their contract that they had to be allowed so much time for card playing then this conversation is a waste.They are the result of unproductive work rules of a union shop. Management may be stupid but not that stupid.

No union = more profits for Amazon, providing even more breathing room to turn away paying customers and drop conservative voices on social media platforms.New union = More campaing revenue for the Democrats.
How many union guys have good management and are proud of their work? Don't seem to hear about that much.
Yes, UPS is #1 because the union workers are horrible awful people. We should execute them.
