I just went to a job interview for a part time job at (national grocery chain) and I didn't realize they are union. Union dues are $45 initially and then about $9/week! That's crazy, especially if you're part time. Over $500 the first year, close to that after.

Our union is much better.
Only costs $10 each time we switch forums.

Everything after that is optional. :thumbup:

Holy shit

How much was it paying?

They start at $8.25/hour but adjust for retail experience, of which I have plenty, so I haven't been made a $ offer yet. Minimum wage is still $7.25 here.

one year I tried to get a part time job with ups during the holiday. They promised 1 hour a week and had to pay $65 for outfit and get it cleaned twice a day and threatened arrest if the outfit looked like someone else had worn it? there were 500 people in the room applying. so yeah.

Is this bad? I am being serious.

Ignore me I just saw what the pay rate was

1 hour a week?! That's an awful guarantee. I want 10-15 hours/week, absolute max. I really just want the grocery discount.

 

[bxpretzel]

I have no idea what normal union dues are or if this is low or high.

Twice.. a day?

Do you have to pay the dues? When I worked for a telecom company they were union but if you didn't want to pay dues to be part of the union you didn't have to. You just weren't able to attend union meetings of vote in union matters. Pay and bennies were still collectively bargained regardless.
