Hey, just a question, if you don't mind. I don't know anything about unions. I'm assuming that they're kinda like an NGO, and to be a supporting member, we are supposed to pay a monthly fee. Do core union members (aka activists, leaders) earn this way? Because they won't have time to apply for normal jobs, if they're busy managing union, right? Or do they not earn, but instead do normal jobs while managing unions in parallel?
