I'm in a Union at my work and we just went through negotiations for a new CBA. Before bargaining even began, everyone seemed hyped up to try and get the best deal we possibly could. After months of waiting with bated breath, we got the deal. It was terrible and low, considering inflation. I don't want to give too much information, as I don't want to be identified, but just know it was less than 8% over the course of the next 5 year deal. I thought everyone would reject it, but nope. It was accepted and I feel completely lost and devastated. Some of my colleagues who aren't in the Union, are making $10,000 more than the Union employees. I feel like we're being held back by the Union and that they aren't really fighting for us. And on top of that, no one wanted to reject the deal and fight. Please help me deal with this mentally, because I feel completely jaded now and destroyed mentally. I'm struggling financially and the thought that my co-workers didn't want to fight for each other is an awful feeling. Or, am I being crazy and should just accept that majority rules and move on?
