Buffet Master
FEEDAH FATTY
The way local supplements work miff me a bit. I understand why separate locals exist more or less, but not their separate supplements. Like local A and local B are say 25 miles apart but A has sick days, B does not. Local B gets a 3rd week vacation at 5 years but at C it's 10.
I'm guessing the generic answer is strength of leadership, but that doesn't really give me understanding. What leverage would A have that B doesn't? I understand at the national level that the ace up the sleeve at a contract negotiation is always going to be striking. Is that the same at a local level?
I realize I'm probably completely disregarding the member vote aspect. Would that be why local B has sick days and A doesn't? The guys in A weren't willing to eat concessions for sick days but guys in B were?
Sorry if I'm not making sense or asking the right questions. Just trying to gain some understanding of how things work and what's coming in 2023.
