Not union related but just an apropos ... Our company had a whiteboard where people could write things to improve the workplace. Some people said more compliments! but eventually serious stuff like a decent health plan and pay raises got on there.

Management saw this and held a meeting where they hired this guy that climbed Mount Everest to motivate us and eventually told us to look inward when there's problems. I was like, wtf is this shit? But it did work on a few people. They were all, "yeah, I should think about what I could do ..."

Immediately started applying for jobs after that shit.

This is fucking gold to me. The exact sentiment I feel about my workplace.

I feel like I missed a post about some company having a pizza party and wondering why their employees are still unhappy. This must be the fifth pizza party post I’ve seen today. Can someone help me out?

Ours had a beer and wine party.

UN → Japan why?

But they didn't have a melon party.

Alfredo's pizza cafe or pizza by Alfredo?

I'm officially neutral on the topic because there are too many factors involved in each respective workplace and CBO. That said, a leading union-busting firm, LRI, states the absolute worst enemy of a union organizer is a workforce of well-treated, happy employees. Unions can't penetrate them. This is all too much to ask for many employers.
