Not mine, and by a long chalk. What did you do to correct the situation,
assuming you were a memeber? Union officials are elected by the workforce
as are local committees, etc.
But many members simply complain about such things without offering to
stand as a rep, etc, and change what they don't like.

If you've only experienced them from the 'other side' your views are
likely to be somewhat biased. Like mine. ;-)
