I'm at an employer who I'm at my wits end with, and so are many of my coworkers. Things are looking pretty grim, and people are posting more and more on mayday celebrations and posting links to pro-labor websites on our slack channels. If I got involved in starting a union, how would this effect my chances of getting another job when I leave this company?
Ultimately my company is not a place I want to stay forever- I'm just needing money to get by while I focus on other passions. However with things becoming more and more absurd, and my deep care for my teammates who might be here for a longer haul, I am keen to take action. My parents are super against me helping out on organizing, saying that I would be blackballed from getting another job when a potential employer finds out I was part of a unionizing effort. What can I do?
