QFT. I’m a field service engineer on high end biotech platforms. With NO education. Went to SUNY for 3 years and dropped out to work. Moved around a bunch. Jumped jobs. Worked at Dealerships. Etc Etc. I won’t put you to sleep with my story.

If someone schooled me on unions in high school, INSTEAD of pumping me full of bullfuckingshit “you have to go to college” rhetoric, I would surely NOT be in the field I’m in now. I knew NOTHING of unions other than horseshit history book exposure, until I had a union roommate well after school. 😉

I’ve worked in industries where unions thrive and I’ve worked in areas of the country where “right to work” thrives. Do YOU want to be an experienced welder starting out at $12 an hour? Then move to NC, you will. No rights. No benefits. $12/hr. Sure its cheap to live there, BECAUSE YOU’LL MAKE NOTHING.

Union or no Union; Work hard. Don’t act stupid. Protect your neck. Get paid.
