[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 525952, member: 7185"] I no longer work for UPS, so I'm going to get flamed for jumping into this one. Yes, you're right. Only [B][I]managers[/I][/B] can terminate your employment. Supervisors [I][B][U]can[/U][/B][/I] write you up. I was written up by a part-time supe. Enough of those write-ups and you get a little paid (or not) vacation (a day, two days, a week, it depends) but you'll come back. The paid depends on the steward involved and what you did to warrant the write-up(s). I was written up for a service test that I failed. A steward told me it was null and void if I pursued a grievance because the contract was violated somehow. I considered it but decided against a grievance. He and I actually became good friends. We met for coffee a couple weeks ago. He, too, has left UPS. As far as new supervisors, they all do that kind of thing. Its their way of making the operation 'their own.' They'll do that until somebody complains enough. -Rocky [/QUOTE]
