At my place of employment we produce powder metal parts solely for the automotive industry. I am in charge of 18 different parts that go into BMW'S, Mercedes, VW's, and GM trucks. Our sister company is about 10 miles away from us and they voted a union in about 3 years ago. Myself and my colleagues agree that it is much better to work where we are at rather than at our sister company that has the union.

For example, we are launching a new part for a brand new customer and we transferred a piece of equipment from our sister plant to our plant. We had to get the unions permission to have the maintenance person that worked on the equipment to help set it back up at my factory. Of course the union said no. I mean hell when ever they need help we have no problem sending people over to help out. I mean with the economy doing what its doing and companies failing in the powder metal industry right and left, hell it makes perfect sense that the union would not cooperate...
