Why are unions viewed as such a negative thing in the USA?
When I read several post on Reddit and other social media, I always see such negativity about unions concerning jobs in the USA. Why are they viewed in such a negative light? Aren't they there to help employees and employers to improve working conditions and eventually that benefiting the output of the business?
584
I loved my unions. In one, I got pay raises yearly while non-union positions went three years without a raise. I had issues with a coworker not taking my severe food allergy seriously so I was able to get my union rep to nip it in the bud vs HR just asking nicely previously and not taking it seriously. My union dues were well worth all the additional benefits I received. Unions are thought of as favorable for around 70% of Americans… although it’s likely that the SCOTUS is about to decimate Union power.

People who are against the student loan forgiveness program, why?
I get that some people see it as a niche handout and they’re funding it with their taxes but nobody had a problem with PUA or PPP. Also they don’t seem to realize that people getting loans forgiven are paying into it also. Just curious what peoples thoughts are. Edit: Are you also against other safety net programs like Medicaid and Social security since those are both programs everyone funds with taxes but not everyone benefits from equally or at all?
522
One big problem with student loan forgiveness as Biden is trying to do it is, it doesn't do anything to solve the problem. It doesn't out law capitalizing interest. It doesn't lower the crazy interest rates. It doesn't put the colleges on the hook for offering useless degrees. It also doesn't even slow down the problem. It only covers loans made before July 1st 2022. The borrowing goes merrily on. The loan companies and the colleges continue to prey on the kids.

About to be homeless in an sedan with a cat during winter. What do I do?
Hi everyone. I’m currently in a situation where losing my lease is inevitable. The only place I have is my sedan. But I also have my cat. I have never been homeless and don’t even know how to start preparing, I have until Sunday. I don’t know how to go about keeping his litter box, or how to keep him warm as it’s going to start snowing this week. Not only that but I don’t even know how to maintain myself. What kind and how to keep food, how to pack my car etc, how to keep myself warm etc. any and all advice is deeply appreciated. UPDATE*** Very long awaited but I want to start this by saying THANK YOU. With all of the people that reached out and made donations not only was I able to pay my rent (after some ugly sobbing begging to the girl who communicates with my landlord) AND my rent for the month of December which has put me in a position to be able to pay Januarys rent. I want to let all of you know you may have just saved not only my life but my cat Lemongrabs life too. It started to snow heavily as Sunday came and went. I have been taking the time to enjoy having my bed, a hot shower and food in my stomach. I hope that the universe serves you all well and treats you with as much compassion and sympathy as you have shown me. To the people who messages me personally I either don’t know how to use Reddit or I need to update my version because it only allows me to see the most recent people who have messaged me and glitches when I try to scroll. Again, you all saved my life. Considering today is thanksgiving I spent the mourning wrapped in my own self loathing that I’d be spending it alone and then I realized how much worse it could be. I could be freezing my ass off in my car in a Walmart parking lot eating cans of tuna. You all mean the world to me and just know you all have someone to go to if you ever need a friend. I love all of you to the sun and back.

First, do you have any money? Even a few hundred to buy some things that will make car living easier? I’ve known people who have lived in their cars with pets for a year or more and they made it work long enough to save up enough money to get a new place. Staying organized is key for living in a small space. I encourage you to watch some of the YouTube videos of people who live in their cars. Especially those with pets. Get a gym membership. Planet fitness is $10/month. That’s how you shower every day, and get water. You will need water bottles. If you have any money they do have these mattresses that go in the back of cars for sleeping. Liter box goes in front passenger seat floor. You’ll need a little cooler and some ice packs. If your work has a fridge swap out the packs there to keep some frozen. For food you’ll do a lot of sandwiches and cereals and oatmeals. The little cooler is what you’ll use. Snacks. Things like that. Make a list of all the free places nearby where you can go to use the bathroom/electricity. You need to start leash training your cat so he/she can go more places with you. And hopefully you have the money for a cat carrying backpack. An emotional support animal vest will also help you take them more places. There are ways to weatherize your car. Look those up. Also make a list of places you can park overnight. Most Walmarts allow overnight parking. You can also get away with it in the parking lots of a lot of big hotels.

my girlfriend took money out of my wallet without asking me. idk how to React?
I (m26) have been with my girlfriend (f21) for two years. I usually don't have anything problem giving my girlfriend gas money whenever she needs it even tho she works full-time. Few days ago we went out with her car and I ended up leaving my wallet in her car.I had some cards on me so I didn't hurry. I saw her yesterday and she returned my wallet. This morning I know this that there was 150$ missing from it. So I asked her and she admitted that she took it cause she needed gas money. That really upset me. I really don't know how to feel about this
4,862
The fact that she didn't tell you until you confronted her is concerning. Boundaries are important and you have every right to tell her that what she did is not ok. And be firm. If she respects you, it won't happen again. If you set that boundary and it keeps happening, then that tells you all you need to know about how much she values you as a boyfriend. Just my two cents, but do what you think is right. Best of luck, man.

There's a super cute deaf girl at this dog play group I attend on Sundays. I don't think she speaks at all, every time I've seen her communicate with someone it was writing or ASL.

Anyone: if your partner is Asexual, is that a legitimate reason to cheat on them?
So, I've been cheated on COUNTLESS times bc I am asexual. Every person has said the same along the lines reason "you aren't into sex". It has come to the point where I just accept it bc I figured it's a legitimate reason and is normal. How do you guys feel? Do u feel it's an acceptable reason to cheat?
819
There's never a good reason to ever strip a human being of choice and their security. That's what adultery does. If I had an asexual partner and wanted to go to pound town, I would ask if they were up for it. If not, I'd ask if they'd be open to an open relationship so I can get my sexual needs cared for. If not, then I'd decide rather I can go without sex for the rest of my life or leave them. Or maybe they'd leave me? Who knows. But they'd have a choice and we can talk about it like adults. It's much better than going behind someone's back and breaking their trust.

Is it bad to have very dark, twisted, illegal thoughts as long as you never act on them?
Sometimes I’ll have these thoughts and I’ll imagine doing something very bad. They will be different things. Whenever I imagine it, I usually understand immediately that it’s wrong, I would never do it, and sometimes it makes me feel upset with myself that I had that thought in the first place but I can’t help that these thoughts come up. I would prefer to not elaborate on what some of these thoughts are.
529
Many of us have some sort of "demons" that we have to deal with, intrusive thoughts, whether they are aimed at ourselves or others from a "mean" to "can't-post-it-here bad." Some people are capable of seeing the source of it, recognize it and not act on it. Some people are bothered by it, don't understand it, and seek a therapist. Some people require medication for it. At the end of the day, what makes you a "good" or "bad" person is based on what you DO, not what you THINK. So as long as you DONT do bad things, you're doing fine. However, if these inner thoughts are becoming "BAD" to the point that you really don't like it and want help, definitely get some help. Don't beat yourself up over your thoughts.

I’m a boomer and I greet my co-workers upon entering the workplace. Gen Z folks don’t, why?
So I’m a grunt in an auto repair shop. I was taught that it is common courtesy to greet one’s co-workers upon commencing the work day. What am I missing? Is the culture in the white collar work place different? This did not start with the pandemic either as it was present before. Example, the 21yo who works next to me will not look at me or speak to me until he needs my help to fix almost everything he’s involved with because he has no hand or problem solving skills. But, that’s another askreddit post.

When did child-free weddings become a thing?
I only noticed this lately so I wonder if it's been around longer and I had just been unaware or if it is in fact a recent development. Update: Thank you all for your input. I haven't been able to keep up with all but did notice some trends, some of which I was also unaware of: \- lots of people have an aversion to kids in general, not just at events; \- cultural differences seem to be a determinant factor between which side of this people have had contact with or pick; \- many cite misbehaving kids as a reason to exclude them; \- many cite bad parenting; \- many seem to believe that kids can't or shouldn't be present when alcohol is being consumed; \- several mentioned liability issues; \- cost is another consideration and head count is another side of that "coin"; Overall, I think we gathered some interesting and useful information on the subject. Tag me to let me know if there are other patterns you noticed that you'd like to see added to this list to make it more informative for latecomers and fans of TLDR. :D Thank you all. Cheers.

Why do we vilify tobacco use in the US but cannabis use is almost celebrated?
You are still putting chemicals into your lungs that are and will be detrimental.
1,018
There's been a century of serious and malicious misinformation regarding the negative effects of use (refer madness, gateway drug, et al) that has had a galvanizing boomerang effect, backfiring on the lies and the people that have propagated them. This has ushered in a sort of Golden Age of good feeling regarding the use of cannabis. Most seasoned smokers already know the risks. It's not good for the lungs (smoke), it's not good for young, developing minds (cognitive). It's awful for those with certain psychoses. It impairs driving. There are more, but the positives far outweigh them in almost any reasonable sense to most smokers. Once cannabis prohibition ends (at the federal level, especially) and we have years and years of recreational use, there will be more eyes on the negative aspects of use. When people feel like they're able to discuss the negative side without risking the legality of use, everyone will be more comfortable doing so.

homeless unemployed vet here, got out and none of my qualifications from the serves translate into the real world. ( yes i tried USA-MAPS and the "C.O.O.L" program) so it would be nice if certifications from armed serves were national recognized certifications. I enrolled into college to use POST-911 bill but landlords do not except the housing allowance as "income". would be nice if the VA had a voucher system like the section 8 system to combat this issue you need an address on job resumes to apply and you need a job to get a address. can we remove address requirements from job applications and while I'm at it lets removed "what ethnicity are you" as well. why is my race an important factor when the bottom of the listing says "we are an equal oppurtunity employer" landlords require 3x income of the rent. with rent averaging 1200$ i need at a minimum of $22/h ... know any entry level jobs that pay that? landlords also require rental history of the past 3 years. if you already been homeless for a while good luck finding a rental to take the chance on you with a bunch of gaps in address. section 8 waiting lists are up in the years. i do not qualify for "food stamps" or other government aids because i have more the maximum 2000$ in liquid assets that iv been saving for fist/last/and security when i hopefully find a place to rent. yes, iv called the VA in multiple states, one said frankly look man rent is in high demand we are struggling to house anyone. tried a different state and was giving 4 different non .gov websites and a bunch of numbers to call. very confusing, i think she was just sending me on a goose hunt iv often wished this was 300 years ago I could just go out west to unclaimed land. build a home and start a garden. i dont know how to fix the homless problem on a large scale, i cant even fix my own. but its defiantly harder to get out the longer your there

Why don’t guys wipe after they pee?
I argue with my bf about this all the time, and he states that guys don’t wipe and he just “shakes and go” it would literally take a second to wipe it, I don’t think it’s that hard.

Not necessarily useless but I had a friend with an engineering degree while I was in the military. He was making like $150k a year and decided to change careers. At 26 years old he had to live in barracks and had his pay decreased by about $130k a year. Edit: Most people will say thats very noble of him and will applaud him for it. My fellow veterans and service members will probably agree that he's fucking stupid

How many people don't wash their hands. People in public bathrooms frequently walk right past the sink, head held high. Their cellphones are probably growing new species of bacteria.

As part of an internship I met Gabriel Iglesias. I actually had never heard of him but I knew my girlfriend at the time had so I took her backstage. He was the nicest man. It was an unpaid internship (which was okay with me my boss was amazing and made it worth it). When he found out he went "Oh hell no chico that's not how Fluffy do. Hang on we gonna fix this". Proceeded to pull out a straight $1,000 and put it into my hand. My boss was walking up and he goes (like a drug dealer) "SHHHHH be cool man be cool" and playfully shooed me away with a wink. What an absolute legend.

I (15f) am getting taught survival skills, Russian, Morse code etc by my mother, but she won’t tell me why I’m learning this. What has she done that she needs to teach me this, to prepare for something?
I have been taught how to survive almost every natural disaster, I have been taught how to build a bunker, a lot of survival skills, I’ve learnt morse code, sign language, and now im learning russian and soon to be learning how to use different weapons such as an axe, bow&arrow, knives, etc. She is a normal person, she has worked in security, then spent some years working with people who have disabilities. I’ve asked her why I’m learning this and she responded, “I’ll tell you another day”. If anyone can provide with an answer to why I’m learning this please help me.

She is a doomsday prepper. She is preparing you a major disaster either natural or man made so that you will be able to survive.

Is she flirty or friendly?
Yesterday I met a female friend I haven’t seen in a couple months and she was kind of touchy feely. When we sat at a table she rested her legs against my legs under the table. She touched my face a couple of times, she also touched my legs with her hands later when lying on the sofa and when it was time to say goodbye she kissed me first on the cheek and then on the jaw. Just wondering if that might mean something or if it’s just normal friendly behavior? We are both 26 y/o

Why won’t minimum wage match living expenses?
I’m get paid minimum wage and I’m living paycheck to paycheck. I have to budget like crazy or I’ll starve and be homeless and have to share a room with someone I heavily hate. Because there is no where else financially to go. Why does minimum wage never match up with rent cost, grocery cost ect……. GODDAMN THATS A LOTTA UPVOTES! I didn’t expect that especially since I post disgusting content but thank you.

Companies will pay as little as they can get away with. They’d charge YOU to work if they could. And also because workers haven’t organized and demanded higher wages.
