....... but to my insistence that I, and coworkers, be treated with dignity
and respect.

Y'know, I've read a number of your posts in which you reiterate this theme.
Apparently, by your lights, such dignity and respect are deserved and due,
and do not necessarily have to be earned. Thus I would expect a real man to
offer this same dignity and respect, unbidden, to others - and I'm thinking
now particularly of employers. Yet not once have I seen any indication
that you do so. In fact, I can't recall any instance wherein you have
referred to your own or any other employer in anything but undignified and
insulting terms. What that tells me is that you have indeed chosen to read
the union book, and spout on demand the union line, but you have given very
little thought as to the nature of your core beliefs.
