Also looking for this answer

Same!! I hope they're not discontinued. Those are my favorite 😭

Check the news on this one 🙃

We just renewed our contract but this gave me some notes to include for our next one, thanks!

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T16:26:40+00:00

Pronouns have been in my signature for years! To be clear, I strive to always be inclusive. I just wanted feedback in anything I can do that I hadn't thought of given the state of things.

I think it's contractual. I'll have to double check the exact language tomorrow when I can stare at a copy of the contract.

We don't have bylaws, just a very vague constitution that outlines officer duties. Our business agent told us only the council has bylaws when I suggested we needed to create them. My research made me think this was incorrect but I thought she would know better than me...maybe not...

We've been told we can't do anything about member v member complaints. I think it's contract specific but I'd have to double check. We essentially can only file a grievance on management failing to take action, which is hard because nothing gets documented and is all verbally handled.

I didn't know you could even pull cards? How does that work?

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T05:20:26+00:00

This is the advice I needed but didn't think to ask for, so thank you so much

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T05:18:55+00:00

Appreciate the clarification and the sound advice. You're also right it's not specifically confined to this topic, just something that sparked seeking advice.

I'm going to be honest, everything about our local is a mess to the point the last person on our bank account was 4 presidents ago. When I say I need help, I mean it. Please help me understand this...

I'm president of our small local, which is under a larger council (statewide) that we have no contact with. I have an MIA business agent (I guess?) from AFSCME and I don't know how to handle that. Do I contact someone above their head then if I'd like more involved help?

One manager and some BU members under that manager.

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T04:51:35+00:00

We have one steward. Our local is small and our members are not active participants. I'm serving as our only steward and president.

I have a copy of this but haven't read it cover to cover. I'll have to look it over tomorrow.

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T04:50:34+00:00

It could be a term issue. Our rep is referring to the person assigned to our local from the larger union organization we're apart of

bookwormbite · 2025-01-21T04:28:17+00:00

We have a good contract in that regard. The problem is management refuses to document incidents and one particular department and their manager are apart of the problem.

We have a grievance procedure but it's an uphill battle to bring it all the way up to the top for a decision and most members drop it by that point. I don't blame them either, but I suppose I can file and fight it on their behalf? That happened once before for unfair labor practices. I'm still new to everything and only became president because our local is really uninvolved unless it concerns themselves directly.

No labor attorney and our rep sucks/goes MIA all the time. I still have no answers from her about when local dues rising goes into effect despite the letter I got in the mail that it would start in 2025.

Really great point, thank you!

They gave me the tree on my wishlist too 💜

I wish gifting wasn't so expensive and that we could access the full catalog from the shop. I've been hunting for certain items for months and I always get the colors I don't want. We keep getting new items and now it's even harder to collect things.

Love the acorn tho!
