Unless you've been a factory rat on an auto assembly line of any automaker, don't even go there. Factory work in general can really suck, but the physical nature of the assembly line and the mind numbing repetition of mass production really pushes a lot of people to the limit. The "horror" stories about union workers that get passed around the internet are based on decades old exaggeration and the vindictive nature of some people, who have the attitude that if someone has something they themselves don't have (pay, benefits, etc), then no one should have. I call it "The Politics of the Vindictive".
