	TRANSITION REPORT TO INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATOR WILLIAM CALLAHAN REGARDING SHOP STEWARD ISSUES
		Riding the list enables a shop steward to have his number on the list advance toward the top at the same pace as the names of those shop stewards who are genuinely out of work.
		I submit that whenever a shop steward manning request contained a skill added to the Carpenter's listing just before the dispatch, the only real question is the identity of the contractor or union official who told the shop steward what skill(s) to add or delete.

	Carpenters’ Shop Steward Admits Taking Bribe
		NEW YORK—A shop steward for the District Council of New York City and vicinity of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners has pleaded guilty to charges of accepting a bribe of at least $8,000, in return for leaving union carpenters off his shop steward reports at a union jobsite in Brooklyn.
		David Veltri was serving as shop steward when, from January through May 2004, he accepted at least $8,000 in cash bribes from the owners of Tri-Built Construction Inc., a construction contractor doing work at the site, in return for submitting false shop steward reports that under-reported carpenters’ hours to the union.
		As alleged in that Indictment, by bribing shop stewards like Veltri to submit fake reports, Tri-Built’s owners avoided the detection of a long-running scheme to defraud the union and its benefit funds by paying union workers on its jobs cash, at a non-union rate, without the workers receiving any benefits or tax withholdings.
