[QUOTE="BigSlim, post: 1970063, member: 61079"] Ok, so I've searched the forums and I'm sure this has been asked before, but I couldn't find a reasonable answer to my question... I'm on my 3rd week as a helper, and just saw my 3rd paycheck. And for the 3rd time, I had $22.00 deducted for union dues. I knew going into this temporary job that dues would be deducted, but the way HR made it sound was that it would be a one time deal on one check since I'd only be working a month - even the initiation fees and monthly dues are spread out for the part time employees (so I was told), which obviously I am not. But $88.00 for 4 weeks of work? It's almost as if I'm getting billed at the part timer rate. I'm trying not to complain but it feels unreasonable that I've been working 2.5 hours a week to be a member of a union for a job I won't have starting next Friday. I felt like I read somewhere on these forums that I could go to the union and ask for some of the dues back after the peak season is over, but I can't find the post. Any advice? [/QUOTE]
