As a long time federal employee, it baffles me why any professional would want to belong to a union. I’m rewarded by my accomplishments. Always in my own mind and heart, and in years past, by my “betters.”

Because the union has convinced them that management will screw them and only managements favorites will be promoted or get raises, etc. You could talk to some federal union employees to get their perspectives but there are few union members in DoD. Most are in the democrat dominated social welfare agencies.

I can see why misguided people would embrace union membership; right now millions of private-sector workers who played by the rules have ended up on the street through no fault of their own, and they mistakenly believe a union might have prevented that. The fact that many people see unionized government workers as our new ruling class shows them that such jobs, while maybe completely useless make-work, provides a lucrative living.
