It was brought up in another thread that we are mostly non-union members. I'm curious, how union or non-union are we? This is an anonymous poll by the way. No one will know your status unless you post it in words.

SAG/AFTRA means dues paying, come Hell or high water

Ficore SAG/AFTRA means you pay dues but sent in that "letter"

VO related union in another country

Lapsed SAG/AFTRA means you once were but now you're on suspended status with one or both of the unions and in theory could rejoin if and when you wanted to

Non-union

There's also the Bob Souer and me (and others I'm sure) category of "Formerly Fi-Core".
I was AFTRA Fi-Core and SAG whatever but when they fused the unions, I got my card back.

So... that's me.

Don't forget the "union eligible" status (also dubbed "pre-union" by the union) for those of us who have done our one or more jobs under the 30 dayTaft-Hartley grace period and are waiting for a reason to join.
