[QUOTE="grgrcr88, post: 899904, member: 16611"] There is excessive overtime language in the contract, however during the months of november and December that language is useless. I believe one of the most important things we need to get changed in the next contract is the language allowing 9.5 grievances to not be filed during the "peak" seasons of November and December, as welll as the language that allows helpers to be used starting November 1st. By the way, your Union is only as strong as it's membership. If you think the company does not recognize a strong local or a weak local based on participation of the members your are wrong. They see how active the membership is and they take advantage of the ones that have no unity or strength in numbers. If you really want to do something, get involved with your local. Go to the monthly meetings, learn the contract. Talk to your Stewards and Bussiness Agents to see what you can do to get involved!! [/QUOTE]
