I'm in the Louisville division (Local 227), my first year anniversary was just last month about the same time as the new contract was passed. Up to this point I had no idea that there were even union raises, I just thought every six months I get 10 cents added to my rate. When do you get the union raises (as a...

I've been called, w...
