[QUOTE="By The Book, post: 1766039, member: 53581"] If you have a local that has its act together and will enforce the contract this will help your stress level if you become an alternate steward. If your main steward follows the contract and doesn't look the other way it will be helpful to you. It sounds like the contract is not followed more than it is followed by the higher seniority drivers which is sad. What I can say is the guys need representation. If you can relay information to the members, follow up on their questions, and have their backs, you will earn their respect. The selfish ones who want these side deals will probably not change but they will know where you stand and respect you for it. I handle one issue at a time and I was told you are there to represent the language not the member, this is from the IBT person at a training seminar. [/QUOTE]
