Back before I joined the Military I worked at Rainbow Bread (they had a bakery in Cincy back then); there was no question on how things worked. You joined the union, paid you dues, and did as you were instructed. We didn't have the option of washing our own uniforms, we had to use and pay for the cleaners service.

Given I was an ignorant kid and simply did as I was told. As I have matured there just seems something very perverse about the procedure. Unions might be the best thing in the world; I just can't go with the mandatory payment rule. Why don't I get to decide? It's like you're telling me I'm not smart enough to make my own choice.  

As long as you know what the deal is, heading into a situation, you always have a choice.
