[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 1085175, member: 27108"] That is it, exactly! We've lost All authority to judge safety, but only retain the responsibility for safety. I just received a decision on my grievance (I have to update my earlier post), which had to do with not wanting to take a set with the snubber not working. UPS didn't want to have a mechanic look at it, and they didn't want me to switch the trailers. Take like it is, or I can go home. Explain this one to me: The decision (as I was told by my business agant) is they paid me for that day, but UPS does not have to fix the snubber, I have to take it not working, If I don't feel safe not taking the set like that, UPS does NOT have to offer me any other work. UPS can FIRE me for not working as directed. When I was trained, I was told; "if it's on there, it has to be working!" IF things go wrong, your know they'll be looking for a finger to point at you. We retain only responsibility for accidents now, no authority for what we pull. [/QUOTE]
