[QUOTE="stink219, post: 1114600, member: 29852"] I can assure you that Inthegame is not management and did not just start. The facts are that the majority of disciplinary cases do not go to panel and handled on the local level. Most people chose to have their jobs again over back pay. Remember that if you are fired, your livelihood is in the hands of a bipartisan arbitrator. It is the choice of the employee not the union to fight for back pay. Your looking at it from a Union vs. UPS stance. There is one more entity involved in these situations, it's called a family. I bet 99 times out of 100 that a wife and kids would rather see daddy get guaranteed reinstatement opposed to the 50/50 chance of reinstatement with back pay. In our building we had a few cardinal sinners lose their jobs and rightfully so. When state police bring forth physical evidence against an employee for felony charges, that employee usually will resign. Btw, funny story, we had a situation a few years ago between 2 hourlies where Employee A slapped Employee B across the face because of a verbal argument. Employee B told management of the issue and A was fired immediately. It was taken to arbitration and because of B's embellished testimony against A, A lost his job under the decision of the arbitrator. B still works for the company this day and is an active member of TDU and even tried running for local office. Point is, if I got slapped at work, I'd be a man and settle it in the parking lot like a man. But leave it up to a TDU scumbag to sell out his own union brother and spit on the oath he took as a Teamster (I will refrain from any conduct that would interfere with the Union's performance of its contractual obligations. I will at all times bear true and faithful to the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.). Then try to run for election? Yeah that's what we want, a weasel that sold out his brother, running our union and protecting me. [/QUOTE]
