[QUOTE="CharleyHustle, post: 1108033, member: 26998"] Are you paying $32 a week? At $12/hr $32 a month is still a bit excessive for dues. Maybe they are taking initiation fees? You need to check into the by-laws of your local, and maybe even attempt to change them, be warned this can be a drawn out process. Dues even for full time can seem excessive, to compare my wife is a public school teacher and every year I make more than she does but she always pays more in dues, she doesn't make overtime so on base pay if I worked only 40 hours I would probably pay a higher percentage. I'm in Michigan which just passed Right-to-Work law and we are in the process of voting to institute a representation fee in all Michigan locals. Something similar is being challenged in the teacher union, the article is in the Detroit News. Taylor schools, union sued over contract that skirts right to work | The Detroit News | detroitnews.com [/QUOTE]
