[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 573473, member: 484"] First, I asked the sender of the PM permission to post it here without anything to identify the sender. I do consider PM private, unless decency is violated. [SIZE=3][I][COLOR=blue][FONT=Comic Sans MS][/FONT][/COLOR][/I][/SIZE][FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3][COLOR=#000000] [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana]Thats a tough call. First, the steward asked, which would diminish my respect for that steward. It shows that the steward is not aboveboard in all his dealings. In other words he will lie and cheat to satisfy his/her needs, regardless of what and who they represent. Secondly, it would bother me to think that the steward would even ask the manager, because that would indicate that he either has had management do it before, or he thinks they will be dishonest enough to do it. Now, you asked what I would do. [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana]I would document what was done, and when he went home. If in fact the card was changed, I would turn them in. But that is me. That action would bring heat down on you from both sides. Something a lot of drivers dont want. I would say that UPS would probably not fire the sup (or they might depending on the sup involved) and the union should drop the steward (which probably wont happen if there is cronyism), but I would bring it to the attention of the proper "higher ups" on both sides.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#2e2e2e][FONT=Verdana]IF the driver wants or needs to get home earlier, then they can simply punch out.
