Slightly off topic, but if you are receiving any disability benefit payments from SSI please make sure to get in touch with the social security administration to get the process of switching it to just your name and to a separate account at a different bank than you family uses (just prevents the off chance they find a way to access your account if a banker doesn’t do their job correctly).

I would add one caveat to that: Not all staff/admin positions at unionized manufacturing plants are part of the Union. Was an office worker at a metals plant and all managers and office folk there were expressly forbidden from joining the union (not sure of the legality tbh). Managers I sort of get because the Union leader thought they would have undue influence on members’ decisions.
