[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 1132466, member: 4992"] [FONT=Times][FONT=arial] I can't say that I agree with that. New steward's.... tend to follow the lead of their business agent. That is the person they know. Long term steward's, tend to be more analytical and independent. (especially if they have dealt with several different agents) Any agreement an agent makes at the local level.... should be within the confines of the contractual language. Period. Besides.... it is not "precedent" setting. Any agent "cutting a deal" on clear contractual language.... shouldn't be in office. The rest of your post.... on the type's of steward's.... You make some valid points. If the members aren't satisfied with their steward, they should discuss any concerns with their Local. And, just because you don't like them "personally".... doesn't mean you can have them removed, based on your "feelings". -Bug[/FONT]- [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
