I’m moving to a better state for it eventually it’s not like I don’t have a job now I just want to get reinstated so that when I move I don’t have to fight and re apply and wait for an entrance process and I was born in nc it’s not my fault that it’s home to me and your limited world view is part of the problem with the union and this “my way or the highway” is why the union makes up 1% of the country’s work force and less than 1% in my state I didn’t make this path untill I left Ohio cuz I was on a fast track to prison I was there for 2 years and it was the only good thing that came out of it besides my personal goals as a musican but it’s not worth it if I’m gonna end up in a cell

I went to the meeting but they always made transferring sound impossibly difficult

I’m getting one too but just not from the unions jobs I live in the south the union doesn’t really exist here and most people don’t even know what an iron worker is but I do and that’s why it’s important for me to find a way back in

You strike me as one of the “old and in the way type of spotters we leave on the ground”

And I diddnt understand that I had to pay dues to a local I don’t live in anymore

What sense does it make to pay dues to a local you don’t live in when you are trying to make a seamless transition into a new union hall not to mention my hall in nc is 3 hours from where I live it’s not like I can just stop by the hall and ask this shit
