I'm curious what the logic is to justify lying about employment history in order to salt a union.
My understanding was that you couldn't be penalized for organizing a union per se, but that didn't mean you couldn't be fired for other non-unionization-related reasons.
It seems like this is going a step further: things that could get someone fired in completely union-unrelated situations, are actually protected if done in service of unionization?
If so, where's the line? Can an organizer simply not show up for work and still collect a paycheck? Can they harangue the business' customers because their job requires access to the company's customer list?
