It should be said that the road stewards in Charlotte have (for the past 10 years or more) been some of the hardest working stewards for any group of drivers. They have always fought extremely hard for the drivers in Charlotte and for the past year and a half have unselfishly and tirelessly worked for all they could get for the drivers. It always seemed like they were doomed to loss after loss and then someone at the IBT listened to the members and not some desk jockey. Through hours of research and several meetings the shop stewards and the BA were able to get the gain in Charlotte from 17 to 8. They never gave up and they never laid down on the job. The drivers in Charlotte should be proud of their shop stewards and next time you see one say "THANK YOU". Although several drivers will go backwards on the seniority list at least it will be for only a count of 8. It is the first time in a long list of COO's that the numbers have been reduced and by 55%. Your shop stewards may not always win but they always fight as hard as they can for your rights.
Just my opinion and I might be a little prejudice since I used to be one of those shop stewards. I am, as of 3/20/2010, retired. But I know just how much work your shop stewards do and in their "FREE" time. They do this for the occasional Thank You.
