[QUOTE="Cole, post: 185494, member: 9507"] Brett said, That's a perfectly valid question, and I would respond by saying, the stewards that really do the job and police/enforce the contract now, and some that are business agents now, and do it the right way have the track records you are speaking of. Many have been in the trenches and are not afraid to step up for our co-workers and our contract, labor law rights etc... Also, you the member will have the right to vote in who you feel will best represent you, and if they don't, the founding charter members in that region can vote this person out. Of course there's fears of transitioning from something established, to one, looking to get going, but things are not how they used to be, in that it is unlikely we will have to face mobs with bats, and other weapons as the old days, when the companys would hire leg breakers to beat down the union. There is also alot of experts in the field of labor to learn from. I just believe we as a group can get it done to our workers benefit. [/QUOTE]
