"Am afraid to say that Balpa do have their own interests at heart and I speak from experience, over the XMAS period I and other colleagues were unhappy regarding a certain issue, it was just brushed aside when mentioned on the basis that it wasnt important enough...On the other hand getting sandwiches without mayonaise and tomatoes was top priority...
That was the final straw for me and my money is now being invested in something I know I will get something in return."

And now your "issue" is being solved with your "investments" going elsewhere????
Guys!! TIME TO WAKE UP HERE!!!
No, you prob havenīt been getting very much for you subs before in easy...but thatīs because your collegues were to lazy to join!!! I know, some of you have big doubts about this whole BALPA thing....but believe me, you WILL regret it if you donīt join / stay with BALPA!! All you have to do is take a look around...the answer is out there!! (See my post above!!)
Not that Iīm a BALPA specialist, but how much time does BALPA need to actualy start pulling weights at easy (with sufficient % of the force joined in)?? 2 years??Less??
In my world 2 years membership would be worth it...right?? Because we all know (I hope you DO now!!
) what the alt to joining is.....if not see my post above...again....
