[QUOTE="Phraust, post: 4876456, member: 90455"] So here's what I was told by my BA back when I was having some 'issues' with another employee and I was often the only steward available "We expect you to behave in a way befitting a representative of this local and the international, if you can't at least suck it up for a few minutes and make sure he doesn't get a fair shake then you have no business representing anyone, however if you don't think you can be impartial let the others know and plan accordingly" Mind you I didn't even broach the subject, someone else mentioned there was drama and he felt the need to be proactive. I can't imagine there will ever be a reason I wouldn't represent someone but I don't believe it's a requirement for a steward to always represent someone. I'd imagine your BA would want a very good reason from that steward for refusing though. Also as others have said you should ALWAYS go with a steward from your own workgroup, more often then not they'll be the best suited to represent you and the provisions unique to your workgroup.
