On the other hand even if you are not a union member you will get the same wages as union members. So why not become a member? Getting all the advantages but don't do anything in exchange? It's just a few €/month and you get monetarian support during strike, union lawyers in case of trouble with your company etc. etc.
Right-wing parties like this but what, if the unions are not strong enough for week or monthlong strikes? Imagine for yourself.
I call these employees ticks! 🤬

As for the unions, this is easy to explain. They are extremely crappy salary negotiators. I've never been a member of any union because of this, and because of ideological reasons, and I always gotten higher raises negotiating myself.

Strikes I find most often, to be unethical, depending on how they are done, and I never had the need for it. If I am unhappy I quit and find another job. Their benefits are also quite crappy, and I can buy better services, if I need
