Why do you have a problem paying union dues when all you have now is a pension that YOU pay for and a garbage health insurance plan? I don't understand.
 
Because they don't understand that dues are a tax deductible trade off for things that are quite likely to be better than what we have.
 
After more than 10 years of service my pension will be 64.69 a month as it stands now. In 30 more years it will be 258 a month at the current rate of growth.
 
Why do you have a problem paying union dues when all you have now is a pension that YOU pay for and a garbage health insurance plan? I don't understand.

They shouldn't considering the dues come out to about $60 a month which is tax deductible. We will definitely get better health insurance right now we pay about $60 a month for that than have to meet a $2500 deductible so I guess I have no problem voting YES.no Brainer

It's even better then you think!!! You have 30 days to take it after your birthday,, Can you say 3 day weekend!!!! :19:
 
5 years service you get pitiful pension allowance of $12 dollars a month.. !!! Wake up read your mail.

How about 401k plus 4,000 a month in pension if you vote yes after 25 years
 
ABOUT UNION DUES ...
1.4 million working men and women are dues paying members of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.
Dues provide the resources to stand up for good jobs and benefits, decent working conditions and a better future for our families.That's why union members in private industry earn 38 percent more on average than than nonunion workers. They also receive 54 percent more in benefits.None of this would be possible without the strength that comes from our Teamsters dues.Management knows the power of Teamsters unity. That's why companies try to distract and deceive you with lies about union dues.Let's look at the truth:

FACT: Teamster Union dues average two-and-one-half times the hourly wage rate. For example, if you make $10 an hour, dues are approximately $25 per month.

FACT: Initiation fees may or may not be charged depending upon the bylaws of the local union.

FACT: Most of our dues stay with the local. Dues fund activities that give workers more power at the bargaining table, in the statehouse and in the community.

FACT: The membership pays union dues to provide for organizing expenses, office equipment, telephones, training and regular administration expenses.
Union dues help pay attorneys to assist in negotiations, grievances and arbitration.Membership dues also support research into companies and industries to gather information for negotiations and organizing. It also pays for accountants to analyze the company’s books.Members receive information about the expenditure of dues money at regular monthly membership meetings. The International Union publishes its annual audited financial statement in the Union magazine, which is sent to every member. Local unions file annual reports with the U.S. Department of Labor.

Birthday off has been in the union contract for a long time
 
BFD union barns have had that for years. Also get a day off on seniority date.
