[Towerboss]

Queeno,
No one said I was complaining about not having the money to join the Union. I was just stating I can't afford to be a member right now due to the pay. You are correct I took the job at the low pay under the bad work rules. I quit the 2nd highest paying federal contract tower job for it. I love the job and NATCA will have my support financially as soon as I finish checking out.

ATLTRACON (CJ),
The decision yall came to at A90 makes since to me, I see where that would/could be a problem. Reference your question, "Can you afford NOT to join the Union?" my answer right now is yes. I'm already working two jobs to keep my wife and two kids from going hungry. I'm not complaining mind you. I'm just telling you I REALLY don't have the cash. Also when you guys started you said you made less than we are now, thats correct but it's relative. Your pay vs. cost of living at the time, is equal to or just shy of what we are getting now vs. cost of living.
