In NC, its illegal to have a union or form one for teachers according to my contract. NCAE is the closest thing we have (just lobbyists) and I'm not paying them since they couldn't contact me I suppose after I met them at teacher orientation. I wouldn't now anyway, they're sitting quiet. Things are about to get worse, the 65 million taken from State Employees won't be more then a drop in the bucket with their 3 BILLION dollar shortfall.
I had my school contact the pay department at Human Resources. You have to go in person or send through delivery confirmed mail pretty much, know from experience that they don't pick up the phone or empty their messages. The school told me it would be a week, I SHOULD get paid for June, the governor didn't issue an executive order about that.
