Hehe, I never said I don't like unions, but a non-union company can trim workers, cut pay, etc, whenever they like...So, Apple won't be as flexable if they get a union in there....Unions are necessary evil, but a majority of the silicon valley is non-union, so they probably don't know how to react and will screw up learning how to dance... I am currently trying to get a job with General Motors, and would have to join the UAW if I do...Everyone I have met from the UAW so far has been really cool. I tried to get a refrigeration job once with the local Stationary Engineers union and they looked/acted like the "mafia" type you heard about...
