    A dozen people quit on the same day and they don't even try to unionize?

      The Wendy's corp likely would have just ripped up the contract for the franchise rather than let a location be unionized

        I agree that's probably what would happen. Seems like that stuff requires whole-sector unions or whatever.

      Unionizing in the USA in almost all circumstances requires the workers in question to stay at the workplace for months, sometimes longer than a year because of how long the process takes with the NLRB. I know this from direct experience because the workers I was trying to organize all quit, then I was back to step 1.

        They could try improving conditions so they don't have to leave. Of course there aren't any individual fast food unions that I know of. It would probably be hard.
