In my local the president is The principal officer. The secretary treasurer is pretty important.
They control all the money

Depends on the set up, they definitely are in charge of the money and keeping an accurate accounting of it. But the executive board has the final say on how it is spent. Each person has a vote. There are some things the president can do without executive board approval. We have three trustees, A secretary treasure, A vice president, A recording secretary,
And of course president.

I have met Ron H. two or three times, he seems pretty popular out west, especially with the Hispanic population. I am sure just like any person in charge he has his detractors. But he seems to continue to win his election.

Some of the folks I worked with received some pretty nice retro checks…others got screwed because they took full time jobs and didn’t get any back pay even though those full time jobs were promised 3 years earlier

He’s very popular here. I really don’t know much about him.

Depends on the local bylaws. I was told a long a while back that back east the principal officer is usually the president but as you make your way west it begins to change to the secretary treasure. Like @oldngray said, they thought the person that's in charge of the money should be the person running the local.
This is what I was told. Don't know how accurate it is.

Makes some sense. Although like I said they don’t so much control the money as oversee it because the executive board has to approve appropriations. Most executive boards are Friendly but there has been some that are not and it’s not pretty.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
They slow walked it
Just like everything else here.

Yep the same day I was asked if I wanted to go driving I was asked if I wanted one of the new 22.3 jobs. I believe that was April 2000 so 2 1/2 years basically

I remember walking back in the day after the strike was over and one of the old managers said “you guys know you’ll never see one of those inside full-time jobs.”
