I prefer the activist jargon of "free ride" states and "fair share" states. Your union fights for, represents, and supports everyone in a workplace. Don't be a free loader.

I wish I could find a union job.

Such a thing is a myth in IT support jobs.

My dad many years ago was offered to join a union in his IT position. He thinks they are evil so he said no.

A lot of union contracts that I've seen, which admittedly, isn't many, specifically exclude IT workers.

I'm guessing that your dad, and people like him, are no small part of why that is the case.
