It's been a REALLY long time since I have haha.

Honestly, I wouldn't be in a union if I had the option as a public teacher. But I'd stand up for what I believe in even if it's not what the union believes and it costs me in one way or another.

Blueyed228

So you are forced to join a union if you want to teach in a public school?

Not in Virginia. It's a teachers choice but it isn't a strong union that does salaries and benefits and things like that.

I think you might be. I know at my old job they were forced to join the union, and my other friend who worked at a supermarket got fired because he didn't join. BS if you ask me.

Im pretty sure you have to be in a union here.  We are a HUGE union state, which is why we are fucking broke.

Get out.  Now.

cheeseandrice

oh, the forced union thing isn't just teachers either. State employees (like my first job on campus) and really any employer that's unionized. You can 'opt out' and pay 'fair share wages' and forfeit voting rights, though. For me I did it based on principle, but it lowered my dues only from $17/paycheck to $14 (I was making about $14/hr for comparison.) That's why I hate unions. It's not optional here.

I wasn't allowed to join since I was a supervisor at my old job and I was so happy. But then I had to work with a bunch of union idiots and that sucked balls. I would never join one if I had the option. But I guess if they say union or job? I might have to pick union.

Indiana is a right to work state now. So employees can now opt out of paying dues and not be punished.

And, I got home and there was a ring box waiting for me on the table. Um, holy shizballs, H bought me a beautiful peridot ring (my birthstone). I'd mentioned a while ago that I wanted one but I didn't think he was really paying attention.
