[QUOTE="Apollo, post: 419297, member: 18252"] It wasn't a safety meeting, those are weekly meeting that NO ONE goes to. Well, cerc sups do, but other than that, unless they're handing out free food, no one goes. This meeting was a grievance meeting, about the hub and workplace in general. We were told to bring up questions about any problems we have with the hub, and I did. I told them every little thing that bothered me, and got most of my answers. This was the example from Chicago i was trying to bring up, that supposedly got UPS to put fans in some northern hubs. I didn't know if it is true or not, i just wanted the answer. [CENTER][FONT=ACaslon Regular][SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]In Chicago a brand new employee (described as barely more than a "boy") serving his 30 day probation died of heat exhaustion while unloading a truck during one of Chicago's heat waves.
