Union Cartoons
Sometimes the best way to tell the truth about working life is through a well-drawn punchline. We've gathered links to cartoon collections that capture the humor, grit, and solidarity of the labor movement.
- Union Member Cartoons — a directory of cartoons focused on the daily life of union members.
- Labor Union Cartoons — a broader collection covering labor unions, strikes, and workplace solidarity.
Both directories are hosted by Cartoonstock and offer a wide range of illustrations suitable for newsletters, meeting flyers, or just a quick laugh between shifts.
Union Jokes
Q: Why did the union worker bring a ladder to the bargaining meeting?
A: Because management kept raising the bar on demands.
Q: What's the difference between a boss and a union steward?
A: One tells you what to do — the other asks what you need.
Q: How many managers does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: None — they'll form a committee, outsource it, and blame the union when it's still dark.
Q: Why did the organizer cross the road?
A: To talk to the workers on the other side.
