I will admit that I got a little poisoned against unions from working a part-time summer job at a Kroger when I was in school.
Under 18, part-time, and making minimum wage... and they forced me to pay union dues out of my already meager paychecks when underaged part-time workers don't really see any benefits of being in the union anyway.
$6.something an hour (then), minus taxes, minus union dues... doesn't leave a ton, and pretty much anything the union "got" for me, I was already guaranteed by child labor laws.
(Interestingly enough, though slightly off topic... since the tax cuts, apparently everyone at Kroger now makes at least $10/hr instead of minimum wage. At least the one near me.)
