Ten Ways to Kill a Union

TEN WAYS TO KILL A UNION DON’T COME TO THE MEETINGS. BUT IF YOU DO COME – COME LATE. IF THE WEATHER DOESN’T SUIT YOU, -- DON’T COME. IF YOU DO ATTEND A MEETING -- FIND FAULT WITH THE WORK OF THE OFFICERS AND OTHER MEMBERS. NEVER ACCEPT AN OFFICE -- IT’S EASIER TO CRITICIZE THAN TO DO THINGS.
