They probably should have been arrested also!

  Furthermore, most companies recognize good employees and tend to try to keep them. They generally don't try to get rid of an employee without reason and documentation. Unions just force employers to keep underperforming employees at the expense of the product and the other employees. Just try to fire a union employee for shoddy work.
  I know I had to keep records of every "incedent" of those I supervised. They were counseled and warned repeatedly, before being terminated. Except for the one that put a knife to my back and said "I could shove this blade right into your heart right now." He was fired on the spot.

    Another “benefit” associated with a “Right to Work” state (such as Idaho) is the employer’s right to terminate employment without reason.  
   
  The absence of organized labor (pronounced “union”) reflects a major lack of protection for the employee.  The employer is then free to implement any “company policy” that management deems appropriate (i.e. no paid over-time).
   
  So, before anybody submits a job application at the Wal-Mart Super Center (whether it be located in Pullman or South Hill), take a long, hard look at what you are getting into (talk with other employees and look into W-M’s health coverage, wage scales).  Find out what is happening at the “here and now” and not with other shareholders of another company in another state at another time.
