Modern labour laws took away much of the unions original mission. In Canada where we are posed to be more socially liberal, most unions in critical industries get legislated back to work before they can even strike.

Don't forget unions are a business too, and they need to constantly increase revenue and produce "value"

Things that are shitty about unionized jobs.
1. protect shit employees that should be canned
2. live and die by seniority, not merit
3. most drink the union kool aid "us vs them" make unreasonable demands and drive the company into bankruptcy or towards automation.
4. protest technological advancements that will make things efficient for the sake of keeping jobs.
