I'll never forget being taken to the office at the grocery store and told I wasn't stocking the shelves good enough to get a $0.25 raise, and they would only give me an extra dime per hour. I was barely above minimum wage. And these people said we were a family which is why we didn't need a union. Literally nickel and diming me, telling me to my face that my work didn't deserve like a dollar a shift more than they would do by default.
