[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1871416, member: 12570"] 8000----to be blunt, if you are hesitant to drive 90 minutes to attend a meeting, you are not really cut out for all of the demands of a union position. Our BA's regularly put on 1,000 or more miles each month while performing their duties. They are on call 24/7. They are well compensated but the rigors of the job often outweigh the perks. If you are serious about pursuing this you should start out as a steward. This will give you a very small sampling of what a BA goes through on a daily basis. Ask yourself if you would be able to tell a member who has been fired that the termination was justified and that there is little to nothing that the union can do on their behalf. [/QUOTE]
