[QUOTE="Pip, post: 128402, member: 6039"] Having been on the flip side of union dues. IE: working non-union jobs, i can honestly say that the price paid for union dues with the benefits package I am recieving now is a small price to pay. Before I ever came to UPS, I had some decent paying jobs, but for the most part the benefits were always lacking, compared to what I recieve now. The math is rather simple far as comparing non-union jobs with the benefits to union with the benefits. In A nut shell, The dues are a very small price to pay for what I have gained. A person doesn't have to look very far to see the difference, either. Just check the help wanted ads in the local paper sometime. As an employee at UPS,represented by a union I think it is best to count your blessings, things could definately be a lot worse. Yes, UPS nor the teamsters are perfect, there are things that a person would like to see different, but what job is perfect? History has proven that the teamster representation does have a lot to do with the kind of pay and benefits your able to enjoy today. The dues that are charged are for the most part well worth the price. For every person that complains about how unfair the union dues are, there are 200 (non-union) others that would love to have your problem. [/QUOTE]
