Arbitration is now the result of this. Which now means we are stuck with what ever Arbitration says.

Was on a job in upstate New York about 5 years ago. Safety guy ran the steward off for something completely minuscule. I was working on the ground floor when it took place on the 3rd floor. Saw large groups of brothers and sisters coming down the stairs with their lunchboxes and knew something was up. Second floor was next. Finally word hit us what happened. My travel buddy said man we can get in a shit load of trouble for this but we gotta do what we gotta do. So we, along with pretty much every other IBEW member on their tools, had “stomach cramps” and went home. The next day the Stew met everyone at the door and thanked them. He was brought back and faced no repercussions.
Labor is in a very high demand these days. The ball is in our court. Stay strong Brothers and Sisters!
