SSP-28: What Can A Steward Do For Crew & Convincing A Show To Hire Union

As of the time of this episode's release, it's winter so I felt a need to use some winter examples to aid in a presentation about union stewards and what they can do for the crew. In short, a steward has no power or authority but it merely a single person that can address concerns or issues with the execution of the contract or contact the union office for support. In the second segment I'm going to tell a story that happened over 10 years ago when a show I was on was trying to be cheap and not hire a union member for a union job and what I did to convince them they should.
