[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been a dues-paying employee for years and I don't receive any union emails.

For a few months, they were being sent to my personal email, but not anymore.

I'm essentially paying $600+ a year for insurance against getting fired.[/quote]

You pay $600/yr?! NP not the one arguing - at the SEC 10 yrs and never joined - I mean $6000 saved isn’t nothing?! I mean what do you really get - I’m still BU so I get what everyone else gets. No I haven’t seen the telework opinion but I don’t particularly care - PA will do what he does whether I read the opinion or not. As for being fired - if you needed union representation bc something came up you could join the union then - and have saved $600/yr for whoever long you’ve been w the agency.[/quote]

The dues are paid for in benefits obtained by the union, with amounts left over.  So this math for money out the door for dues isn’t mathing.  The health dental and vision insurance benefits pay for dues alone.  On top of that, you have the supplemental retirement contributions.  I don’t know why anyone would assert the dues are costing you money at all.  PA hates all those benefits so those would be the first to go if we had no union. [/quote]
