What are the major dis advantages for not being in the union. I genuinely dont see where my money goes each month. I know its only £15 or so, but I feel I may aswell save that £15 each month and blow it all on the grand national each year. If I win, I get my own little pay rise. I have never been in a union before, I only joined prospect recently to get my no vote for the pension ballot in. All I feel is that being in prospect gives me peace of mind if I have a very bad day at work, but could GATCO provide me with just as much peace of mind.
Most CVs I read (not that I read many), but PB mentioned it in his, is that most senior/middle manager were union reps in the past, and I am thinking wether some reps(not all) are using there position of reps to further their own career. You scratch my back etc etc. I hope I am wrong.
