That perfectly sums up unions. A group of thugs, organizing a group of uneducated nobodies, that force inefficiency and greater costs on a business and the consumer.
I have a lot of union members in my family and its horrible listening to them sit around trying to figure out how to do less work for more pay and explaining all day long how they are the victims, never "fairly" compensated etc.
My friend was managing a major remodel of the Edgewater Inn in Seattle and an electrical sub contractor was apparently using non union labor for their tiny piece of the job. So what happens? A bunch of uneducated, toothless turds stand out front of a very nice hotel with air horns trying to make customers stays as horrible as possible by blowing them day and night. They want the job, but they want to hurt the business as much as they can.
On the whole, unions are very corrosive and destructive. The lowest common denominator trying to steer a business.
Life is unfair. We have extensive labor laws. If people want a better job, if people want to be treated better, if you want everyone to bend to your will... then get a fucking education, risk your own capital and work 80-100hr weeks for a couple years while not paying yourself to make that dream happen.
