However, instead of getting it in benefits, I get it in cash. So I make $36/hr...while union members make $25/26 an hour. SMFH. And my union fees still get paid because I do work in multiple districts in the state and even in WV.

Sometimes they will have to offer some of the benefits that the unionized companies do. A lot of times, larger companies will just follow many of these guidelines year round in order to stay competitive when bidding.

The fact that they can't even account for 5 hours at all at this point is shady

While we debate how much pocket change that Posey got improperly...let's look at some really sad numbers.
Ohio State has spent $142,000 to Larry James firm for legal counsel and defense for the 15 players involved in tattoo-gate and Bobby G.'s hiring of players allegedly improperly. OSU has also incurred other expenses totalling almost $800,000 since the 'scandal' broke last December. Do you want to know how much improper benefits or trading memoribilia for tattoos involved this totals up to?

Michigan $600,000 for Rich Rod. Boise $200,000 and counting. Auburn spent $170,000 on Cam Newton alone. Tennessee $300,000 and counting...Alabama, Miami etc etc .
