    I’m not sure I’d want to work somewhere that penalizes me for someone else’s faults.

    Have you considered finding a union to bring to your workplace?

      Trust me, I don’t want to work here either, but having spent 6 months looking for a job and eating through my savings and knowing that I’m in no position to do that again anytime soon, I don’t exactly have many options. And yes, I’ve considered a union, but I also don’t want to end up unemployed again so I’m not going to be the one to champion that.

        If you have the job now, why would you quit and burn savings instead of searching while you have stable income?

        And getting fired for attempting unionization is a pretty slam-dunk case for a labor lawyer, but I’m sure you wouldn’t want to go through that hassle.
