i used to be a union man
before the work went the way of all things
now my card sits in the drawer with the dead batteries and canadian tire money
i pay dues only when it means a proper day's pay
otherwise i am in bad standing
not quite a scab as such but rather another casualty
a union is only as strong as its members of course
but there is also the subject of the work going the way of all things
still i'd say get a union job if you can
i would if i were you
either way you'll find yourself doing what you have to do
