Aside from the fact that, if you were an engineer and tried to cart something you were working on to another area that was bigger than like, a foot around, without calling a union worker to do it for you, they'd file an order against you. WTF up with that?

There are many instances where Unions have done more to hurt the workers than help them. Your example is just one of them. Unions provide workers with security. Sometimes so much security doesn't make economic sense.
