The shift to white collar/service jobs obviously ate away at their pool of members and potential members, which in turn begs another question:
Why did the US labor movement never seem to make any serious attempt to unionize office/clerical workers in the late 19th/early 20th century when they were organizing other segments of the working population? Why was there no "bank tellers union" or "life insurance salesmen union"?
In some countries, even professions like doctors and lawyers have unions and go on strike in certain situations.
