I will probably give it a shot at some point. I don't feel like I'm calm enough under pressure to do that job right now, though. When I need a steward that'll get shit done I look for the ones that I know will get angry about the situation, but can still remain measured in their reaction. Right now, I just get angry. I honestly do believe in the union, and I respect the people who are stewards. It isn't that I think that they don't take their jobs seriously, I just think that the culture is shit. Part of the reason I think the culture is shit is because the rank and file is apathetic. 25% of members voted in this past IBT election. Which means local is even more depressed. My interim plan is to try and agitate.
