Yes, they would love that. Because then they would know exactly who to "lean on", or get rid of. Here's what happens outside of the conservative fantasy world where all businessmen have wings and wear halos; Snitches run their mouths, management finds excuses, people get fired, and unions lose more elections. That's why they need the drawn out process of waiting for the NLRB to schedule an election. It's more time to intimidate and file law suits. Nothing more.

There should be a secret ballot election, but it should happen in a timely manner. Not months down the road so supervisors have more time to can people.
