        Union dues are an investment.

        Edit: Op coward, edited the comment from “imagine the union dues 💀” like an Amazon bot.

        My union costs 1% of my monthly salary. This year, they threatened to strike and got us a 5% raise that way. And that’s just talking about money, not other benefits like paid time off (30 days per year).

          Oh wow, that’s amazing! I’ve never been part of a union but this sounds like a huge benefit.
