I am being harassed by UNAP Local 5008. Twice in recent months they have gone to HR to have me terminated for "non-payment of dues." Not only are my (Beck objector) dues current, they are actually ahead.
First they told me my initial payment in July of 2010 which I sent via certified mail and which they signed for was never received. The treasurer requested a copy of the cancelled check but never came to get it. Now she says I have to send it to the Local - when I called 5008 today they told me she is the one who would get the mail!
In September they had recorded a dues payment from August. Now the treasurer says she never received it (even though the HR rep noted it had been recorded!) nor did she receive my September payment.
I checked with my credit union and all the checks were received and cashed and are stamped with "For Deposit Only to Local 5008."
This is outrageous!
At the same time they came after me in September, other employees were also notified that they had back dues and were allowed to be brought up to date simply by showing check registers - not having to get the copies of the check. UNAP wants my employer to treat everyone the same but they are hypocritically not doing what they require the employer to do.
Also, the treasurer admitted to another employee that she cashed checks without recording them! Say what???? They are taking in 24K per month and this is what they do with hard earned dues payments?
If they are cashing checks without recording them, what are they doing with the money? What do their books look like? Is the president or the treasurer pocketing the money?
