Same boat but with GM as a fork truck operator. First time working in a union shop. I like this job because it's actually much lower stress than my last job (supervisor, logistics). Not sure what I'll do while the strike is on.

It sucks. We are required for GM to be able to make cars, and yet the union does not give us any of the benefits they afford the others. Why even be affiliated with them if we get put on layoff when they strike?
