You all are in a right to work state. That's one of the downsides of living in a state that is right to work... Theater owners and production companies can do as they please. I'll have you all know that I worked location on over 40 Hollywood features... 7 of them in your state. I am non union and always was... I was also never once asked to see my union card. I made a lot of money and put away 50% of what I made. I will be retiring before I am 60. Your union like MPMO is fast becoming history.
@Minionuup Ok tough guy. Would you climb out onto one foot steel beams sixty feet over a cancrete arena floor and pull motor points or play with four hundred amps of raw power, maybe you would like to unloaod six 53' tractor trailors in two hours so REGULAR Americans can see a show. All we ask for is compensation for putting our lives on the line when we work. Did you ever think about what it takes to actually make a production happen? No you didn't.Think before you speak.
@roachsf Amen brother. Showing support from Toronto, Canada. I am marrying a US citizen, and will be moving to Orlando this coming fall when my current contracts expire. I hope to join Local 631 and work along side the best.
@krazydrummer We would be happy to have you. I would never say we are the best, there are so many talented folks in every IATSE loacal across both our nations. What is your first? Do you work theatre, industrials or do you work the arena circuit?
@roachsf I do mainly theatre and corporate work here in Toronto, although I am occasionally at the Molson Canadian Amphitheater. I also have done some work with #58 as a permit holder, although I hope to officially join IATSE as an apprentice and get a full card. I am only 23 so I have lots of time.
CANADA 2010 ? The Constitutions are the highest laws !
A Govermental system that operates outside of the constitutional laws of a Country is an unlawfull Goverment . (is the CANADIAN Goverment full of Criminals ,and or CONSTITUTIONAL OFFENDERS ?).
Make your own opinions based on your own facts and observations of the wordings and intentions of the Canadian Constitution and the Actions of the Police and Goverment Agents .ask to see an oath of office ....
Rigging Gaffer Mr Jerard Tiffens hiring practices are simply UNCONSTITUTIONAL . and unlawfull !
UNION MEMBERS NOW DO THE HIRING FOR THE SHOWS. Backdoor hires ,non-members and new members are Hired and kept Over the senior members... FRIENDS ARE HIRED OVER UNION MEMBERS !
