    Default National Printer's Union

    Anyone know if my shop can join a union? We have a client that only likes to deal with union printers, and wanted to find the easiest way to appease them. Any ideas? My state doesn't have any unions.

    monster press did something like that and got a shitpile of union jobs for shirts etc. No unions? at all? weird. Up here every gov't worker is in somekind of union.

    Yeah SC's not fond of the unions for some reason. F'n nikkiy haley's dumbass isn't helping the situation either.

    Kudos on finding a pro-union client. Admittedly inconvenient but it still rules that someone out there still gives a shit about labor rights

    You can't be in the union Nick, you're management.
    What are you going to do, collectively bargain with yourself?

    Dan, I meant that our shop be union friendly, as in adhere by their codes. We are only three people, and two of us are partners, so I understand what you mean. Just trying to figure it out! Thanks!

    And I talk enough to myself, why not start bargaining?!
