[QUOTE="joe416, post: 334662, member: 15314"] Local 710 just don't care. Our Union Steward is a little man who drives and his children went to school with the plant manager and they are tight. He does not defend your right to pick any job. He brings in people that are placed in positions seniority workers want and deserve because he is either doing a favor for a friend or the plant manager wants to date them. They tell you "I don't care." The Union Steward tell the little people to handle things himself and if you go over his head the guy above him tell you the same thing. I wonder what am I paying dues and fees for? Job protection period. The drivers were mad at the last election and many said it was fixed because the steward supposedly went out and got the votes for himself from drivers on vacation or enroute. I can't understand how they can justify taking money from hard working people that get nothing in return. It's impossible to deal with them so, if you ahve a better union than that, your doing good.It boils down to this " We work for a company that hired the mob to take a percentage of our pay for protection." Protection = the abilty to work for a living. [/QUOTE]
