[QUOTE="ski or die, post: 1444700, member: 52818"] Sometimes contacting the BA will not be successful. Our BA would always lean towards the company. When he was a steward, he was appointed by the Union and Company. After he appointed his replacement who also was a company puppet, then finally retired, we immediately requested an election. I was lucky enough to win. But --- trying to deal with the BA was a brick wall. At one point on a seniority grievance which we lost, it was so obvious the BA also was working with the grievance panel, I finally requested a meeting with the Local President. Our President was willing to help me file charges, but I do not like to see anyone lose their jobs. He brought the BA into the meeting and he agreed to revisit the grievance with the company. The company agreed the grievance was correct and would follow seniority rights without me even having to go to a hearing. So sometimes, the BA could be in the company pocket. Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
