Google Contractors Say Their Work Is Being Shipped to Poland After Unionizing

So how did the bad employees get hired at your workplace and stay there before it unionized? Did the company hire 100% good apples before unionization and then suddenly change its mind and start hiring bad ones? Are you really going to assert that firing people is impossible in a union workplace? We both know that's not true.

You can have an apple that does shitty work and pay them 70% what you pay good apples, and everyone's still reasonably happy.

When I have to pay the 70% apple the same amount as the 100% apples, and can't really fire that apple, that's the not fair to the 100% apples.

It's damn near impossible, and they can get unfired.

Also I do not work at a unionized employer, my wife does as a nurse at Stanford hospital.
