[BC] Convention Costs

Rich remarked:

I think I'd quit the business before I'd exhibit at McCormick ever 
again. It was a nightmare. The exhibitor next to me had a prebuilt 
display with recessed lighting. Someone made the unforgivable mistake 
of plugging the display into the outlet they'd paid for. That's a 
union job. They objected to the charge. In retaliation, the union 
required them to remove the lights so a union electrician could 
reinstall them - for a price.

Yes, I had read that it takes 3 electricians and a supervisor to plug in a lamp at McCormick.  So, they just priced themselves out of a lot of money.  Duh!

I guess that answers the question of "how many union electricians does it take to change a lightbulb."  LOL
