You waited along time and I know you fully appreciate your new opportunity! You desrve it bro!

Thanks snowman. I appreciate this opportunity like you wouldn't believe. I just cant get over the fact i got it. I guess them couple years i drove a RGN paid off now.

I just came back form giving my 2 weeks. Bossman/Owner took it really well. I was shocked. He told me i would of been a fool if i didn't take it. He even said he is going to call them for me and give me a letter of recommendation. I kinda felt bad leaving him cuz i been there almost 3years and he did treat me like family. But i know in the long run i will be alot better off with the new job.

When i called norris sales back and talk to the owner. HE said my dues are 2.2% of my gross pay. But he wasnt sure of the buy in.

Congrats on the new job, sounds like a good deal. I had fun when I was hauling construction equipment around and I think you will, too.

Anyway, since I cannot talk to you anymore because you are in the union now, Good luck and I hope you enjoy the work, the eqipment and the people you work with and for.

It's weird hearing about the pension plans and retirement plans and the unions.

I live in Arkansas and there's no union jobs here that I know of. No retirement or pensions either. There are 401-k's though. Weird how a few hundred miles and a different state is so much difference.

I had uncles that had union jobs up in Illinois they are all retired and still getting a check plus S.S. check too.

Good luck hope it all works out for you.

I think union jobs very from area to area alot. I mean the back hills of WV or TN aint going to have union jobs. But i live about 25 miles from philly and there is alot on union jobs around here. The closer you are to a bigger city the better chance for a union job.
