What a Novel idea! Unity within a union! I've never seen that in my lifetime! <br /> <br />I was a shop steward once - got involved on a commitee to plan a vote to accept or reject a contract offer. My silly americanism suggested a secret ballotting procedure. Haw! I was keelhauled by the union boss for that. It seems he thought that if we had a secret ballot, we would actually vote our own true feelings, and not the way he thought we should. He actually said just that! <br /> <br />Now since my naive soul just couldn't quite feature that - I ended up resigning as steward. By the way, we went on strike and lost our shirts anyway. <br /> <br />Our real choice - be a pawn to the left, or a pawn to the right. Its you against the company boss, or you against the union boss - but really, WHO CARES which! <br /> <br />
