[QUOTE="Dustyroads, post: 573662, member: 22610"] Here's just a hypothetical scenario: let's say there's a supervisor, or another employee that I don't really like, and they are prone to using vulgar language often while we are in the workplace. So, I sceretly bring in a recording device and tape record these outbursts on a dozen different occasions. Maybe I even ask them not to swear, and they persist or belittle me, on tape. Assume I am secretly thinking of concluding my employment at UPS. After I have gathered my evidence, I file a complaint with the center manager and follow it the next day with a multi-million dollar lawsuit against UPS, along with a complaint with the EEOC, and my resignation, saying that I can no longer tolerate working in this enviornment. UPS fires a couple people, settles with my attorney for $750,000; he and I split it 66%-34%, and I start collecting my pension, buy a boat, move to the lake. It's really the liability issue that bothers UPS, not the language. Many supervisors and managers have the worst mouths of all. In my many years with the company, I've never seen a driver terminated for poor production. However, in the last ten years, I've seen two fired for sexual harassment, in a rather small center.
