I think experiences like yours really is what is covered in Costco management's disappointment in this letter.

The Teamsters got an excellent national agreement raising wage standards across the organization, and makes it seem Costco hasn't kept up. On the other hand, the odd pressure tactic, bit of favoritism, or dirty trick store managers pull get people motivated to join unions as well.
