Labor unions are the Satan to which you are referring. Labor unions brought you many infernal things: the weekend, lunch breaks, paid vacation, social security, minimum wage, FMLA, 8-hour work days, OSHA, sick leave, child labor laws, etc.

Satan indeed!

They originally wanted a 4/4 work week.

"They"? Which shop? When? Was that part of contract negotiation/positioning or an actual demand?

Under my last labor union we had mandatory 10 hours days so yeah unions are so great

Yeah you're right, I guess all the gains they've made don't matter because of your shitty experience. Thanks for your wisdom.

You're 23 and live with your dad. What shop are you a member of that was enforcing 10-hour work days?

Yeah whatever bro, my dad IS a labor union so you don't know what you are talking about
