Union Steward Saves the Day
Management likes to try to break the contract and bully people into working extra days/hours that they don’t want to work. One morning at the end of our overnight shift, me and some of the other guys were standing by the time clock getting ready to clock out. A day shift supervisor came up and told one of the guys he needed to stay late to help out. The guy said no, I’m not on the overtime list and I don’t want to stay. The supervisor said, “I’m mandating you to stay.” He didn’t know that the union steward was standing right around the corner a few feet away. Union steward pops his head around real quick and says “You’re doing what now?” The supervisor just walks away.
