I don’t “understand it” because it’s an antagonist relationship, us vs them. How’s that solved anything ever without violence?

I don’t know what the solution is, we’ve tried a few. Perhaps there are none.

Do you want to keep trying for your union to earn their seat at the table each year proving their worth, or “else”?

There is going to be another meeting where the bosses from each side will sip martinis and introduce their spouses and then they depart the galla in long black limos. It’s been written.

P.S. Your employer, your chosen object of warship, your partner or children, owe you nothing. Gotta find a way to reconcile that.
