Late Night Phone Call "Congratulates" Worker  

When the Volvo strike that we've covered heavily over the past week came to an end Saturday, one non-striking Volvo employee reports that she received an anonymous "congratulatory" phone call late that night.

When the employee answered the phone, the caller reported the tally of the vote to end the strike and reportedly said:

"Congratulations, you f***ing scab!"

It's because of such hostility that the National Right to Work Foundation again acted on behalf of employees in the area today, seeking information about employee reports that police refused to protect them from union vandalism and harassment.

Narcissism

It has always puzzled me how union activists can justify criticizing someone for not joining them in a very costly effort to secure a contract that has provisions such as monopoly bargaining and compulsory fees. While these provisions benefit the union leaders, they diminish the choices of all employees and force non-members to fund an organization that they perceive as working against their interests. Only the most self-centered of narcissists could behave in such a manner.
