Good riddance. I don't work for IBM anymore but when I did I was irritated by this thorn in the side claiming to represent IBMers. The reason IBM doesn't have a union is because they don't need one. IBM's HR policies can do far more than any union can. He was an IBMer that didn't fit and so he left. I was let go in a divestiture to another company but like most people I don't feel bitter. He, not IBM, is the cause of his bitterness.
