    I’m not American either, and I have no idea how much I pay my union. They’ve made sure I had several increases in salary in addition for the yearly rise, and I get several insurances for a better price than if I were to buy them for my self.

    Last year the collective raise wasn’t that high, but they made sure my colleagues with lower salary than me got it instead, and I expect the same thing will happen this year.

    I’m totally fine with that because that is what I voted for to happen. My salary is good enough for now, and I want to make sure others are taken care of.

      Totally, my union got us bonuses in our last negotiations. The lower your salary the higher your bonus. The only way to have it be fair at all as I see it.
