Hello all, as the title says-
The lower half of my freezer is not frozen, yet the upper half is. Anything can check before calling a repair person?
Admittedly, I won’t really be doing that much. But the fact that my coworkers see me in that light made me feel pretty good about myself.
I work at a mechanics shop that is unionized, but the rest of the company (office workers) are not union. So my employment and union are separate entities that have a contract with each other. My rep was on the phone with one of my coworkers and asked who our steward was, and the answer was “we don’t have one.” Well, that can’t be apparently, although the entire time I’ve been here we’ve never had one. One of my coworkers is spineless and told me he would break strike if it ever happens, another coworker is younger and doesn’t really get it, my foreman would but can’t don’t conflict of interest with the office, so really it makes sense for it to it to be me. The only super pro union, pro worker, “left” guy in the shop. So they all voted me in.
I will 1000% have a target on my back with the owner of the company now as he is staunchly anti union, and I probably will never get another promotion or raise as long as I’m there, but that’s the point right? To be the liaison between my rep who will fight for me and a guy that wanted to take away bereavement pay last time we had to draft a union contract? I think it’s a risk I’m willing to take.
