Home Depot.



The overall concept of the big box store is rotten. That's what happens with the large non-unionized corporate structure. Secrecy and too much else is left to chance and is too rampant throughout and the customer is left wondering why the result is so screwed-up. The workers have to all be on the same page. Then the surroundings follow.



Having these big box stores come to a community results in shutting down stores that were already there. Then the younger generations there wonder: "Why even stay? Everythings closed down, but the Walmart and Home Depot". Nothing is here any more except a Walmart and an Home Depot (or a Lowes).



Then, those two go out of business because too few people are even left in the town.





And it's really got nothing to do with "non-union" either.



You don't





have to be a union shop to treat your employees with respect and pay a



decent wage.



Only if the labor unions agree. (your word *by itself* just isn't good enough)

I don't need the union's permission to treat my employees like humans

and to pay them a decent wage. I can pay an amployee what he is wort -

not limitted by union scale, where I cannot reward a good worker over

a slacker.



Sorry - but I've had enough Union BS to last a lifetime. Will NEVER

work for a Union shop - and I'll never operate a business if I'm

forced to work with a union. I contract out to union shops, but I'm

not involved with the union, being self employed/management.


It's people like Clare that employees need unions to protect themselves against.
