[QUOTE="22.3?, post: 815415, member: 33942"] I live in RTW state, and I can tell you there is no difference. I live in a very RED state, and I bet our dues paying membership is above 80%. One thing you have to remember, is that UPS has not willing given you the hourly rate of pay, pension payments, and benefits you get now. They've agreed to it because we, as Teamsters, have collectively bargained for it. In my local, we don't treat non-dues paying members any differently. We do, however, ask them if they don't think our representation was worth their monthly dues in the future, after they've gotten in hot water. I, personally, agree with other posts in this thread. It should be your choice as to whether or not you want to join the union. But, I will say this, the saying, "no man is an island", has never been more true than at UPS. Collective bargaining is displayed at it's finest at UPS, and it doesn't matter whether you're a closed shop or RTW, this is evident. Sooner or later, non paying members come around and see this.
