[QUOTE="JDAM00, post: 1156780, member: 44120"] I never took an oath. On my 30th day I sent in the paperwork for the union, and day 31 was my first day of seniority. I'm not sure if your local does it any differently. Call your union. If you had seniority, paid dues and were technically in the union, you could take the termination to arbitration, and try to get your job back, however if they let you go, they don't want you there, and if they were forced to bring you back you'll have a really rough time making a career out of UPS. your best bet would be to do what Upstate said and get your dues back. I guess you could try to sue UPS for a wrongful termination, but it sounds like you were still on your 90 day probationary period. They can fire you for just about anything then. Our facility seems to run it as tryouts. They will hire 3 people, as the weeks go on they will stop calling one or two in, and only let the hardest worker make his seniority date. Good luck on your job search! I hope you find something that will fit you best. [/QUOTE]
