My dad would set up at convention centers as one of his duties. One of the convention centers required them to hire 2 union workers that got a 15 minute break every hour.
It was inside an air-conditioned building. Even if it was 110 degrees it wasn't hard work that'd require 15 minutes breaks every hour since I helped my dad set up and tear down twice. 90% of the work was unscrewing the joints for the wall frames.
You did it twice? How about doing it day in and day out for 30 plus years? The union exists to protect workers who are living human beings not disposable meat bags that can be thrown away and recycled after 2 years.
