Ok my son is in preload? goes in at 4 am, worked last friday. called in monday said he had a fever (he has been having back pain but doesn't want to say that , cause you have to jump through hoops to come back to work or find a doctor, the back pain and been for like 4 months now, i told him he's crazy and to go with workers comp, but he doesn't want to as he felt it would compromise his driver chances, although now he's given up entirely and is moving away, so will be resigning in like 6 weeks)
so he goes in on tuesday , and the security guy pulls him into the office and says they found an empty box on friday and now they have a bottle of meds(allergy meds) that was found today near the belt and the fingerprints on both of these match his. The bottle was on the belt when he came in, so he put it aside and told his co workers they were there in case the open box came through. My son said to the guy that he had no idea what he was talking about. And he said to the ups sup that "you set me up, cause now you're saying the pill bottle was there all day friday and monday and no one touched it till i came in today? My son told him he didn't do anything wrong, that boxes are routinely busted open or open when coming through, etc... My son was very upset, as he busts his butt for like 11 bucks a hour and gets up at like 4 am, and now this. so he finds out they spoke with two of his co workers also, and this made him feel better. Apparantly they had a laminated card with fingerprints and the other co worker was like ...."really? you have the card all laminated already and you expect me to believe that you are an expert and they match?"
So now the wed, thur , fri, they keep calling him in to the office , trying to get him to confess to something he didn't do. And there is really nothing missing , no crime. they are calling it "shopping". the steward came in with him today. my son is convinced they are going to fire him. he is leaving anyway , but is in the middle of some major dental work, and wants to finish that up. He also wanted to leave on good terms , to use ups as a reference. He doesn't want to get fired, even though he'd get unemployment and could grieve it. we are in south central PA , and he is moving back to long island, ny. so the grieving thing is a pain ( i think , wouldn't he have to come back and fourth?). I'm also upset that he has developed a back problem, and if they fire him..... how's he gonna have any medical care??
what should he do? do you think he's going to be fired? (i am thinking they would have fired him already, but they seem to have it in for him). although he is a hard worker, and they all admit that, and they said all the bosses said he wouldn't do that, he is a mouthy NYer, who stands up for union rights and questions when they do something wrong. (oops... my bad traits passed on) please help me... so i can advise him.. thanks
