[QUOTE="quadro, post: 673319, member: 12850"] Protection from retaliation is not an absolute. A rogue manager could try to retaliate so yes, it is a fact that there is protection but not an absolute certainty. With that said, using your example, if your manager was to retaliate in some way, then the GFT process that worked for you the first time because you won, would give you (not someone speaking on your behalf) the opportunity to present your case to the same director, vp, etc that agreed with you the first time. One other thing, again using your example. Let's now say that you do have union representation and a grievance process. You go through it the first time and win, just like the GFT. Your manager now retaliates against you. In this scenario, based on UpstateNYUPSer's comments, your grievance would have to go through the shop steward who would sit down with the center manager and discuss your complaint. Now your complaint is being judged by your manager's manager along with maybe several other complaints. If necessary, it then gets passed on up the chain and you may or may not be part of the process. Which sounds better to you? [/QUOTE]
