Reply #4: I am my building union steward...... [View All]

[AnneD]

yeah, I'm rollin in dough.:sarcasm:

For all the extra meetings I attend, all the block walks and candidate phone banks I man....I consider myself lucky to get a meal with my union colleagues to make up for the one I am missing with my family.

I got a little grocery gift card thank you gift for Christmas-and promptly gave it to a member in my building that had cancer. Hey...rollin in the dough :sarcasm:

The one good thing-I have to lobby legislators occasionally and most of the time they will pay for a ticket and cost or I am reimbursed. I have got to go to the state capital and DC. I have fond memories of those travels. I usually share a room in a nice hotel (I am a Motel 6 kinda gal normally-but seems there are no Motel 6's in DC). That is living high on the hog as I have ever experienced.

I know my union friends pay their dues and expect me to do my best to represent them and their interests. Anything less would be theft. I am not a Corporate Thief-I'm a card carrying union member.
