Yes, I am in a Local, but not a UA local. Building trades and service.
Like it or not, my numbers are in the ballpark in my area and in my local. No travelers.
Average is just that. Some will make more, some will make less. Yup, there are active members making much less than the average and some making their 6 figures like nothing is happening.
Yes, there are bound to be some (small) errors because the Local does not report the number of hours worked by classification, nor do they break out the number of members in each classification, at least not to plain old rank and file members.
Very few are working anything close to 1,980 hours at Journeyman rate, at this time, in my neck of the woods.
Guess I should have went UA
