In 2003, the IAM came into the company I worked for. They demanded that the minimum pay level be set at $16.37 with each current workers pay increased above that to a level commensurate with their seniority.

Doubt all you want. State "that claim is wrong" all you want. I work here. What, do you think I made that up? Anyone here has free access to union pay scale information. Starting pay for their lowest labor grade is $9.76/hr for a grade "1". I'm not sure what a grade "A" is, but they start at under $9.00/hr.
