INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If your shoes squeak when you walk on smooth surfaces like tile or hardwood floors, it could be because the bottoms are too slick. Go over the bottoms a few times with a dryer sheet to make them less slick so they don't squeak as much. You may need to rub the bottoms of your shoes with a dryer sheet every few times you wear them so they don't start squeaking again. Gently go over the bottoms with a piece of fine sandpaper until they feel slightly rough to the touch. Sandpaper can make the bottoms of your shoes less smooth and polished so they don't squeak as much when you walk around in them. You can find fine sandpaper online or at your local hardware store. Make sure you use a fine sandpaper that's 120-220 grit so you don't scratch up your shoes too much. If there is a gap between the bottom and the upper part of one of your shoes, fill in the gap with super glue and then clamp it down until the glue dries. Loose shoe bottoms can also cause squeaking noises when you walk, so reattaching them may solve the problem. If you don't have clamps, try setting something heavy on your shoe or wrapping rubber bands around it to hold the bottom and upper part of the shoe in place. Let the super glue dry for 24 hours before wearing your shoes.

SUMMARY: Rub the bottoms of your shoes with a dryer sheet. Try roughing up the bottoms of your shoes with sandpaper. Use super glue to reattach the bottoms of your shoes if they're loose.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Ultimately, a majority of your co-workers will need to vote to establish a union. By talking to your co-workers, you can gauge whether your fellow employees are likely to support a union election. Talking is also the best way to find out what changes your co-workers would like to see, and for you to share your ideas about how unionization can effectuate those changes. Keep your discussions quiet and private.

When a co-worker has a question or challenges your position, you should ready to answer quickly and confidently. To successfully organize, you must inspire and persuade you peers to follow your leadership. There may already be a union you can join that represents your industry. These organizations can guide you through the process of organizing a union at your workplace. Most U.S. labor organizations are organized under the American Federation of Labor - Congress of Industrial Organizations or the Change to Win Federation. There are also independent unions that are not affiliated with either umbrella organization, such as the International Longshore & Warehouse Union, United Electrical Workers, and Industrial Workers of the World. You can also locate local unions by searching online or in the phone book under "Labor Organizations."

Be aware that the cost of running a union and the complexities of labor law may make forming a new union impractical.

SUMMARY:
Talk to your co-workers about unionizing. Find out if you can join a pre-existing union. Contact a union organizer.
