Through high school and college I worked at various factories and shop floors and such. There were companies I worked at that weren't union and when unions tried to get them to join they were met with at least indifference and at worst confrontational anger. The reason was that the company they worked for treated them well. They knew that by unionizing they would be losing more than they gained by setting up a wall between them and that management that they had such a good relationship with.

On the other hand all the places I worked that were unionized definitely needed to be in order for the employees to get a fair shake.
