[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm ambivalent about unions. I used to be a part of the union. One of the benefits of being auto enrolled was that the fees were very minor. However I did not think the union really represented me or my fellow teachers needs. They didn't do a very good job of explaining how our rights and how we could negotiate to ensure our rights were protected. I later found out that principals were asking teachers to do things that ran counter to our union protected rights. In Virginia the union is voluntary and it's rather expensive because it is voluntary. I have chosen not to join, mostly for financial reasons. I think that people use bad unions as proof that unions should not exists. It is like arguing that because some public schools are subpar we should close them and force everyone to home school.
