On the average I would say your typical worker where I work makes 90K, has the best benefits I have ever seen, can retire at 78% pay at 55 and does maybe 5 hours of actual work a week. Not a bad gig if you can get it.
But these are the type of people that voted for Obama because he is the king of the "Free Ride Party" and I can tell you first hand that just about every union worker at my work voted for him and plan to do the same next election.
I would expect eventually you may be asked if you'd like to join this union. Would you turn it down?
