On July 18, 2018, Big Baby McEllrath, ILWU International President, agreed to open PCLCD negotiations to increase the guarantee paid to LA\/LB steady crane operators for the 2 days they stay at home each week.<\/p>\n

LA\/LB steady crane operators get “5 for 7,” which means they work 5 days and get paid for 7.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

From a Union Complaint filed by Ramon Ponce de Leon on June 11, 2108, to tentative agreement in 5 weeks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Or for those who prefer PDF, UC0064_RPonceDeLeon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

$333 per day, for a guaranteed 2 days per week, to stay home, is not enough for the steady crane operators, and just like the GEICO commercial, they want more.<\/p>\n

They want more per hour, to stay home, because the base rate has increased and their stay at home pay has not increased. (Except for the $55 paid to the 1st shift and the $34 paid to the 3rd shift steady men, when they work.)<\/p>\n

They want more, in the form of second shift pay rates for their first shift guarantee payments, even though that is a direct violation of Pandora’s Arbitration Award SC-9-97<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

According to\u00a0SC-10-97<\/a>, the corrupt influence of Danny Bags resulted in multiple contract violations related to 2nd and 3rd shift rates of pay being paid for 1st shift guarantee payments.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The same corrupt Danny Bags, who never complied with the Arbitrator’s decision,\u00a0has now retired and been hired by Local 13 to do arbitrations and help with grievances like Ramon’s.<\/p>\n

It was Eric Aldape’s equalization grievances that resulted in the 2015\u00a0Crane Training:Pay Guarantee Agreement<\/a>, which guarantees the hall crane drivers crane pay on any job they do, when they can’t get a cane job.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Do the signatures look familiar?<\/p>\n

The LA\/LB local agreement regarding crane training and guarantee pay for hall crane drivers was not signed by any of the LA\/LB JPLRC members, and was not put into the 2014-2018 PCLCD, even though it was ratified, allegedly.<\/p>\n

Does that mean that the new agreement regarding guarantee pay for LA\/LB steady crane operators, not signed by any of the LA\/LB JPLRC members, does not have to be ratified?<\/p>\n

Eric got de-registered for his stand against corruption, is this really ok with the rest of the ILWU?<\/p>\n

WOW!<\/p>\n

Harry just flipped in his grave.<\/p>\n

Great parting gift to the rest of the 13,500 longshore members Big Baby.<\/p>\n

What non-steady longshoreman would vote for any of the LA\/LB, Local 13 or \u00a0Local 63 candidates for International elected officer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The only way to stop this corruption is to elect new International officers, like Local 10’s past President, Ed Ferris.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ponce de Leon sold his forklift company to SSA, now he is selling the dispatch hall out for his steady friends and family.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The only way to stop him is to vote the Local 13 and Local 63 bums out.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If not, you deserve what you get.<\/p>\n
