In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If your workplace has a union, it negotiates collective bargaining agreements that cover benefits and wages for all employees in a bargaining unit. A bargaining unit is a group of employees who perform similar work. Generally, the union is the sole negotiator for all employees in the unit, even those not in the union.  Unions also represent members in workplace disputes with supervisors. Common disputes occur around discipline and termination. A union may pay for a lawyer to help the employee arbitrate a dispute.  Ask around and talk to a co-worker who is in the union. Ask if she or he has ever had to file a complaint with the union and how it was resolved. Also ask if they think they are getting good value for the dues they are paying. If your workplace has a union already in place, then you should call Human Resources to ask how to join. Alternately, you could ask a co-worker if she knows who the union representative at your workplace is. Whether or not HR has a form depends on whether the collective bargaining agreement provides for HR to deduct union dues. If the agreement does not, then contact your union representative. Get the “Dues Withholding Form” from HR or from your union representative. You will need to include personal information (name, address, and job title). You will also need to provide your Social Security Number so that union dues can be deducted from your paycheck.  Make sure you have the right form. Multiple unions are often present at large employers (such as universities). Some unions may exist for hourly workers and a separate union may exist for salaried workers. Each has its own form. A typical form looks like this. Union membership isn't free. You will have to pay dues on a schedule, typically monthly. There should be a dues schedule that HR can give you.  The amount of union dues varies by workplace. Generally, you can expect to pay between $200 and several hundred dollars a year.  Union dues fund a variety of activities, for example office support and organizing costs. Money is also used to pay fees for attorneys who help with negotiations and accountants who analyze the employer’s finances.  You are probably already paying into a union. Although a unionized workplace will be open to employees who do not join, bargaining agreements often require all workers to pay a percentage of the union dues. This is called an “agency fee.” Complete the form accurately and completely. Unless you request that your application be withdrawn, you should be enrolled automatically in the union. Keep a copy for your records. If HR automatically deducts your dues, then you do not have to do anything to pay your dues. However, if HR does not automatically deduct dues, then you will be responsible for paying them yourself.  Each union has different methods of payments. Some require that you send the money to a designated delegate. The delegate then sends back stamps for you to paste into a booklet, signaling that you paid your dues. Other unions require you to pay online. You will be given an identification number and password. Once you log-in, you can then pay the dues. Be sure to ask your union representative about how to pay, and contact her with any questions. Active participation is crucial to a successful union. You may vote on issues and in elections, as well as join committees. Committees are commonly formed around education, consumer affairs, veterans, and women’s issues.
Summary: Learn about the workplace union. Call Human Resources (HR). Ask for a form. Understand how much you will pay in dues. Complete the form and submit. Pay your union dues. Participate in the union.

Problem: Article: Make this circle about one-third larger than the head, and give it a bit of an oval shape. About one-third of it should overlap the lower right side of the circle for the head. This oval should extend to the right of and slightly below the circle for the neck. It should also overlap the neck circle and just touch the circle that represents the head. The body oval should be about 1.5 times taller than the neck circle and about 3 times wider. Elongate the shoulder oval vertically, make it overlap the neck oval slightly and run to just below the body oval, and tilt it about 30 degrees towards the front of the fox. Make the leg oval about twice as long and half as wide, and extend it straight down from the shoulder. Create the foot oval at a right angle to the leg. After finishing the outline for the near-side front leg, sketch in the front portion of the leg and foot ovals of the far-side front leg. Make them extend just a bit in front of the near-side leg. Make the rear shoulder about 1.5 times as long and twice as wide as the front shoulder. Instead of a single leg oval, draw 2 ovals that meet at 30-degree angles to represent the knee joint. Make the back foot oval the same size as the front foot.  A fox’s back knees bend towards its tail, not towards its head. As with the far-side front leg, create overlapping elements of the far-side rear leg in similar proportion to the near-side rear leg. Connect it to the back of the body oval and run it down to the ground level where the fox’s feet are. Make the oval wide enough to partially overlap the near-side rear shoulder and knee.  Sketch the tail at roughly the same angle as the upper rear leg. Make the tail about the same length as the body oval, but more narrow by about half. After you’ve finished outlining the fox using various oval shapes, add definition to its various features. Make the body leaner in the abdomen, and contour the legs to give a more muscular look. Make the tail a bit wavy, and use small curved lines to add indications of fur on the tail and at the front of the chest. Foxes have narrow, somewhat football-shaped eyes, lean muzzles with slightly-rounded noses, and angular but slightly-rounded ears. Refining the facial features may be the toughest part, so refer to images of foxes for guidance. In other words, trace over the more defined body, legs, tail, head, and face that you just created. Then, erase the original ovals you used to shape the outline of the fox. If you sketched lightly in pencil, the lines should vanish without any trouble. Make the lower halves of the legs, the lower third of the tail, the front of the chest, and the bottom half of the muzzle an off-white color. Fox fur can carry shades of red, orange, and brown, but a “burnt orange” shade may give you a fairly typical fox color.
Summary:
Overlap the bottom right of the head with a slightly larger circle for the neck. Sketch out a much larger oval to represent the fox’s body. Connect a set of elongated ovals to represent the front legs and feet. Follow a similar process with 4 ovals for the rear legs and feet. Draw the tail out of a long, nearly banana-shaped oval. Refine the fox's body shape and add facial features. Darken your refinements with pen and erase the pencil outlines. Color the drawing, if desired, to finish it off.
