Daggett, who earns $638,00 a year as union president and whose son, Dennis, is a $308,000 executive vice president
Hearings held by the commission in [2010] highlighted no-show and semi-show blue collar jobs that paid spectacularly well. Among the lucky jobholders was union shop steward Ralph Gigante, a nephew of Vincent “Chin” Gigante, the late Genovese family boss. Ralph Gigante, commission records showed, was paid $400,000 a year while working less than 30 hours per week.
Testifying at the hearing, [Daggett] countered that $400,000 is “not a lot of money today.”
