[QUOTE="soberups, post: 747329, member: 14668"] I find it appalling and offensive that a so-called "safety committee" of brown-nosing management wannabes would sit and have a meeting and presume to judge whether or not hitting the dog was "avoidable" or whether or not you should be "charged". You were there. They werent. Lets talk about what you [I]didnt[/I] do that day. You didnt swerve to avoid the dog and hit an oncoming car. You didnt run over a child. You didnt wrap the car around a telephone pole, or put it in the ditch. You didnt break the speed limit. You were doing your job and a tragedy occured. You had to deal with the trauma and the pain of what occured thru no fault of your own. The company should be [I]supporting [/I]you and [I]commending[/I] you for handling a difficult situation in the manner you did. Instead, they are second-guessing you, making subtle threats against your job, and passing judgement on your actions in an ignorant and demeaning fashion. If I were in your shoes...I would not even dignify the actions of the "safety committee" or your management team by placing any importance in their "findings". Their opinions mean nothing. [B][I]You[/I][/B] know it wasnt your fault...any one with any [I]common sense[/I] knows it wasnt your fault..... and there is no possibility of any disciplinary action being upheld against you. So there is absolutely no reason at all for you to even give a [I]damn [/I]what they think. [/QUOTE]
