Was it a closed shop where you HAD to pay dues to the union to work there, and only owners were exempt. AND the Union would not do anything for you? I had to pay dues to a union 4 times, and I could not file a grievance. 3 times it was because I was hired as summer help. (I was technically probationary for 3 months.) The last was during college. I worked at a grocery store, and was considered part time (35 hours per week) and the union would not represent part timers. |
