it is a very simple answer. nobody will stand with you,and the mso,s,and primes know this. just as soon as you stand up to them. they will jerk your contract and give it the next guy in line for an even lower price. you can read the posts on here and tell that. look at how many postes for job came up when verison went on strike and these people where crossing the picket lines like it was a joke. it all boils down to no self respect, no honor,and no respect for your fellow man. it was at one time a brotherhood and if you didnt respect your brothers then youwas run out of the industry. now we have let the respect go and nobody has any pride without respect first. just my thoughts on the matter you spoke of.
