Well, if sticking to principle only means sticking to them when it is in your best interest, we're obviously operating with two different version of the word principle.

Cults have principles. The principle of being brain-washed into sticking with something even when it makes your life worse.

I wouldn't use such strong language except for the fact that he might not be able to get his diabetes treated and the union is being plainly moronic.

The principle is solidarity. It means sticking by your fellow men for the benefit of the slackers and the detriment of the most productive people. Union men don't cut and run when things go south. They don't talk anti-union talk or turn on their fellow workers. A decicated, perpetual slacker knows that he can continue to be unproductive as long as the union can cover for him.
