[QUOTE="dillweed, post: 867751, member: 5938"] Sounds like your building is a mess. I'd start with timing one of the sups doing hourly work. Jot down his/her name and the exact times worked. Ask your union steward for a grievance form so you can file on the sup. Also make sure you have a copy of your supplement, another item your steward should give you. Use the language in that supplement to write up the grievance. Fill out the grievance form. Ask the steward for help so it is filled out properly. Give it to your steward and ask him/her to file it. First, stamp it on the time clock, then ask for a copy. You should receive a letter from the union stating the panel date for your grievance. You don't have to attend, the union has someone there to represent you. In our area, if the sup works less than two hours we get the amount of time worked at double our hourly rate. If sup works more than two hours, we get four hours pay at double our hourly rate. Now, if for some reason your steward refuses to give you the form or to help you fill it out call the business agent for your local. You don't need to go into detail and/or accuse your steward of anything. Just explain that sups are working daily, you want to grieve it and, for some reason, your steward isn't able or willing to help. Good luck with this. I'd hope that your BA would look into the situation and give your steward a kick in the rear. Unfortunately, the union doesn't always do what they say they are there to do. Our own steward is bought and paid for, as far as I'm concerned. But we do have two others who are more on the ball. Again, best of luck and remember, don't get emotional. Stick to the facts and keep it simple. [/QUOTE]
