GM Custodial.  Everyone is paid and there is agreement on compensating the skeleton crew that maintains the buildings by rotation.  I am fighting with the Superintendent who only wants to pay 1or 2 dollars more while we have the Northampton agreement that pays OT.  School Committee meets this week so pressure will be on them to agree with us. Every custodian at home is being paid full rate.

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." The UFCW is about workers coming together to build better lives for themselves. It is about creating opportunity.
