[QUOTE="Cole, post: 194018, member: 9507"] The union is liable if they don't represent people. So should we risk getting the union sued for breaching the duty of fair representation? Tie what UK did that was wrong he knows, and doesn't need us to tell him, because as most cases/stories go we don't get all the facts, but even though I don't know him, I certainly hope he will do the job the right way, and not put his job in jeopardy. I don't know that I wouldn't take a swallow of whatever I could get my hands on if I was choking. Job or no job, because if I die my family sure would be in a mess. As far as your statement about the pension etc...that doesn't apply, because I have no access to pension funds. Also, no I don't claim all managers are dishonest, but lets face it, it is very stressful, and many try to fudge numbers to stay afloat, and I have seen some people I really thought were good guys get caught for it. So I only question does this company make it impossible for managers to do things right. Im my years at UPS (almost 20) I have seen 2 managers retire, the rest were fired or quit/resigned with the option of being fired etc...a couple did quit to go work elsewhere. Also alot of those fired are now big dogs at FedEx. Back to accountability, I try to lead by example etc...because as the old saying goes, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink". The facts are there is a massive corrosion of morals, family etc...in this country and world, and things have gotten so politically correct, you sort of have to walk on egg shells at times, so as Michael Savage says, "not to Offend anybody" except he draws out the offend. lol In closing all I can say is the drivers I work with/represent are by and large honest hard working people, and only a couple have attendence issues. Usually if I think you are wrong I will tell you, but I can't make anybody do anything. For instance a young driver that crosses my route, I see him riding with his bulkhead door open, so I warned him about it, but he didn't listen and called me later to say lp stopped him for having it open. I tell everyone do the methods, and do it they way they tell you, if there is something you feel is wrong ask, and people will help you or let you know if they taught you something incorrect, because many sup's only drove 30 days at most, and usually on a pie run. Most people wait until something hits them before they get it. [/QUOTE]
