[QUOTE="brett636, post: 919306, member: 249"] I don't find it hard to make the case that certain groups of workers are not fairly represented by the union. Lets face it, in recent contracts the part-timers are the one taking on the bulk of the concessions, the combo workers get ignored, and the seasonal workers get no benefit of the union at all yet are forced to pay dues anyway. This union wants to join the OWS people yet it has helped to negotiate its own version of the "the one percent" by giving most of the contract benefits to the fulltime drivers. Now I am not complaining about this since I fall into this fulltime driver category, but I will not sit here and tell those other groups of employees who may or may not feel disenfranchised by the union that they have to pay union dues mainly for my benefit.
