Typically, I am always a supporter of Unions. I believe workers deserve rights, livable wages, and safe work conditions. My hotel job has ALL of that. They pay LARGELY over minimum wage, ensure safety and security for all workers, and make sure our rights are respected. Local 11 has REFUSED to allow us to vote for unionization. A HUGE majority of us here at the property do NOT want this union. They protest outside our property and drive away business. They do not listen to the people they are trying to unionize. Why would I want or support a union that deliberately drives away business and jeopardizes our jobs? This union is an absolute joke. Our CEO has requested a proper vote for unionization multiple times and this union has denied that request, is that not the point of a union in the first place? What a joke.
