[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1326771, member: 42270"] For the record, initiation fees being imposed on part-timers is [B]bullsh**[/B]. With initiation fees, a new hire's (typical) first interaction with the union is seeing their measly $150/week paycheck get plundered. That doesn't really help build solidarity out the gate. My local waives initiation fees for newly hired PT'ers. If you're hired into a FT union gig with full benefits in a reasonable time and making over $20/hr, then sure.. $200+ in initiation fees is understandable. But $10/hr at 20 hrs a week and no bennies for a year? Charging initiation fees for that is [B]wrong[/B]. [/QUOTE]
