I might have gone overboard with the grievance...lol

The rest of it was true story. A Co-worker's brother is in a factory union and tells him the stories of how these people are interested in nothing like honest work. They just know exactly how they can milk the system and typically do about 4 hours of honest labor in an 8 hour shift because of the union labor laws or whatever. His brother sounds like yours, and he hates seeing it...but he has gotten in TROUBLE for trying to just get things done because he was affecting someone else's job security (even when said person would NOT DO HIS JOB).

And GM (and the rest) are who pay the penalty for this severely outdated system that has long outlived it's usefulness in our society.
