Nasty father worked the carpenters union. He was making 16 an hour. Years ago. when the local maine men were working for 7? wtf? He did have to pay dues.. He retired with a pension and a nice ss check.
They used to call me up on the telephone? and want me to work for them.. lolol
I would like to add to my comment. These days the unions seem to be getting a bit too weird. Like the teachers union.. woke. So in my world the jury is out on this.
we will see how it all plays out. They used to be good?
I see no reason why teachers need a union.
