TO: ETNI PEOPLEFROM : meryl schwartz davidiRE: complaints about union
Without reprinting the comments about teachers' unions here, I am adding my
two cents.1.Although I am fairly often aggravated at the Irgun HaMorim, to
which I belong, and although my criticism includes bothteachers' unions
hereand the leaders, I ALWAYS go along with my union. I am a believer in
unions. I do always express my opinions to my union. 2. Whatever the
flaws, my union is all I have to protect me in the labor jungle. The present
government has been trying, in my opinion, to defeat/delete unions. 3. If
Idon't agree with my union, I can ???..Resign in protest ?(and then
NOT TAKE ANY BENEFITS THAT THE UNION ACHIEVES, IN MONETARY FORM OR IMPROVED
CONDITIONS. This would be the principled thing to do. ) ????.I
cancommunicate my views to the va'ad, which exists in every school.
??????Ican try to get elected to the school va'ad, then the regional va'ad,
and if I become a fiery advocate, the national va'ad. ?????I can
become an unofficial advocate for teachers, with friends and people I come
into contact with, and write letters to papers etc. 4. And if I don't
elect to do any of the above, I should sit quietly and not complain?and
that's my polite language.meryl schwartz davidi
