I'm trying to keep this friendly, but you don't know me at all. The last thing I want to do is get into an online debate with a total stranger about my 'attitude'. I'll join the union and not cross any lines, pick up disputed pairings, or anything else that'll upset the majority's political applecart, but I'm not interested in being any kind of crusader on a personal level. Some people may be willing to sacrifice their own short-term interests for the uncertain chances of improving things overall, but I simply can't afford to take that view. That's reality, at least from where I'm sitting.
