[QUOTE="Char, post: 262856, member: 10877"] The state of Arizona says I can. In 8 years I have had a union rep sit in on my behalf one time. And what do these dues go to? Recorded messsages telling me I should vote a certain way on the contract, paying union reps their full salaries if we the laborer were to strike and take our so called strike fund pay, sending money to politicians and a single political party that do not represent my views? What else do these dues pay for I would like to know. While I would not get union representation without dues, I do not get it anyways. UPS would still have to give whatever the union negotiates, but who says what the union negotiates is a good deal. So why should I pay them? At least I have choice to join or not in Arizona, at least here you are not forced to join the crooks that run the damn thing. I do not see what I would lose if I were to ditch the union except that once I were to get fired I would stay fired. Other than that, the union is just another $48/month bill. Char [/QUOTE]
