[QUOTE="soberups, post: 919519, member: 14668"] [b]Re: Pros and Cons of not joining the union? Hub worker candidate here in At-Will sta[/b] I should clarify on the last point. Members who needed temporary employment during the strike were told to speak to our Business Agent, who could refer them to various union shops in the area. Our Business Agent was putting in 12+ hour days on the picket line. So if you wanted to talk to him about a temp job, the picket line was the place to find him. For whatever reason, our agency fee payer chose [I]not[/I] to come down to the picket line or the union hall to discuss temporary employment with our BA. Perhaps he felt that sitting at home and earning nothing was preferable to placing himself "at the union's mercy." [/QUOTE]
