I got a new phone that’s updated to the most recent iOS. I got 5 days out of my spoofer and now it doesn’t work with my phone.

I’ve been waiting weeks for a solution and so far it seems more likely than not that my $80 spoofer is useless to me.

Anyone have any tricks? I’d love to use it for this event

It makes up for the Times Square event, and flips the script on the grifters listing their accounts for up to $4000.

Normally I would be against any kind of guaranteed rarity, but I enjoy this and I’m glad they did it

It can be community outreach, strong (or weak) CBA’s, historical significance, or anything that sets your local apart from others.

For example, Local 7 in Denver was founded in 1893, and stands as one of the original 11 founding cities of the Alliance. It was established the same day as Local 1 in New York, on July 17th.

I have a lot of pride in my local, which stands as a historical leader for hundreds of thousands of hardworking union laborers.

What about you?

I have had only 20 hours of work so far in July.

They don’t respond to my voicemails and the office hates when we email them (they are mean about it). People keep telling me it’s slow because I’m on the D-list, but I quit my full time job so I could be available for union work, and being in a metro area I assumed I’d be working at least part-time hours…yet I’m technically unemployed.

I’ve been in the industry for 10 years, I’ve toured domestically and internationally, I’m a tested Technical Director with a name in my local theater community; at some point I have to ask if they actually care, or worse, they don’t want people trying to become successful within my local.

There are people on the D-list with 1/5 of my experience making $5,000+ this month with back-to-back AV calls and I’m sitting at home worried about rent. As a grown man, I hate being jerked around like this, and that’s a huge reason I wanted to dedicate myself to earning my membership in the first place. At this rate, it’s not going to happen.

Anyway, that’s all. I called in this morning so maybe I’ll get a dispatch call but I’m feeling incredibly discouraged. I get so depressed when I have weeks in between jobs.

Wish me luck.

Edit:
There is no hardline “rule” that we can’t have other work. Many of us do. I was lead to believe that by quitting my full-time job, that I’d have a chance to work my way up the list. I have not been given that chance yet and the summer is halfway over.

I don’t want to misrepresent anything, but I also have to be vague to protect my identity. I’ll answer any questions I can
