Kevin Gallagher is an airplane mechanic and a union shop steward, who works at JFK International Airport for a major international airline, during the late 1970s. He considers himself to be a decent, hard workingperson, who values honesty and prudent behavior. His Irish Catholic upbringing creates the framework for an expected comfortable and respectable life, but his job at the airlines and his duties as a shop steward, challenge hisprinciples and values. His assumptions are based on his experiences as a youth, but peer pressure, and the unsavory characters he encounters in life, challenge his fundamental beliefs. A Day in the Life of a ShopSteward is a short story that follows Kevin as he encounters these challenges as he performs his duties as a mechanic and as a shop steward.
