Lots of jobs that need unions are jobs that people don’t want to be working in a few years, because they’re terrible jobs with minimal benefits and shit pay. Those people can’t see that the reason the job is so shitty is because there isn’t a union. There’s a good chance that they’d actually want to stay with the job once the union transforms the working conditions and compensation.
Lots of people would be satisfied with a career in a “lesser” job like retail if the job didn’t suck. There’s nothing wrong with being a cashier, cook, custodian, phone attendant, etc for your whole working life if that’s what you want to do, and we should compensate people in those jobs accordingly.
