Hi X,
And I applaud you for this:
<<And I do have the option of not joining the union. There are teachers in our district who do not join. I know one of them, and she is rabidly anti union, though she takes the benefits available to her in salary and benefits that are available because of the union. I like to pay my own way, so I will join the union, since I do not want to utilize the benefits cost free.
And to the NTH DEGREE on this:
<<I like to pay my own way, so I will join the union, since I do not want to utilize the benefits cost free.>>
YES, YES, a thousand times Yes..
And moving on, <gg>, I know when to move on and when not to..<gg>..
And I have noticed here and in real life:
That MANY that have FED (no pun) at the Government Trough, Either WORKING??? ALL their lives there, or taking FED (FEED HAND OUTS) in the the way of contracts, subsidies or some other pork) are the FIRST to WHINE about some single mom getting a hundred bucks a month in food stamps..
Ironic or is it, from the beautiful eastern slope. I don't know..
Take care,
