You dont have to be a member, you have to pay a fee thats germane to enforcing and negotiating the contract.
If a person enjoys the wages, benefits and working conditions from the CBA, they should pay whats germane, that is only fair.
Maybe I should just tell the bank I dont want to pay my mortgage, hey everyone else pays so I wont pay but I will enjoy living in my house.
Get off the Lear Jet, they dont fly all over the place on it, stop lying like you always do.
How many jets does BOA have?
A whole fleet, but yet their customers are forced to pay for it, they have a hangar in CLT that has several planes, and they are used way more than the IAM lear, the use of the lear is on the LM2.
Should GE's customers and shareholders pay for Jack Welch's unlimited use of GE's fleet of planes and he has been retired for like over 10 years.
Maybe I should tell Duke Energy to lower my bill cause I dont want to pay for their jets either.
Its only a condition of employment if its a closed shop and the person is told that when they apply and interview for the job. And if a company agrees to it, then so be it, dont work for them.
