"Membership was mandatory for employment"

Union membership is optional for Kroger employees in Mid-South. All employees get the union-negotiated benefits but dues are optional. They won't work hard to defend non-union members, though.

What location was this Kroger where union membership was mandatory? I didnt even know that was legal.

Redmond, Washington. This may be relevant, we've both moved away from the area and haven't kept up with local news: https://www.king5.com/article/news/politics/supreme-court-un...
Yeah, that legislation is a pretty good way to kill unions.

It's gonna be real interesting when the working class finally has enough of this shit.
