[QUOTE="gorilla75jdw, post: 1417349, member: 15201"] I kind of do have 1 other complaint along the same lines as the bottled water complaint . At my hub , there is "tobacco free facility" and "tobacco free workplace" signs everywhere , at every entrance and exit door , in every restroom (I can only speak for the men's restrooms) , they even have stickers in the trucks and put a memo on each door to the building stating that on a certain date (earlier this year ,2014) that the company would hand out discipline if an employee was caught using any form of tobacco in the trucks , both feeder and package car . But even after all the signs and memos the company has erected barriers outside each door of our hub that is designated as a break area and smoking area . Here is where I have an issue : every single door to the facility has these barriers for employees to use as break/smoking areas . So in a hub that runs 300 part time employees on the midnight and twilight sorts , what does a non smoker who wants to enjoy his measly 10 minute break outside in the designated break area without being subjected to all the smoke from the smokers . I have lucked out on this issue because of a couple of reasons like : I'm fulltime and I'm yard certified , meaning I can put on my reflective super man vest and get out into the yard area and away from the smoke , but I know that there has to be others who feel the same way about this issue . I don't want to piss off all the smokers and file a grievance on this problem , but eventually I do look to talk with upper management , namely the division manager and see if we can compromise on making some of those outside break/smoking areas non smoking areas so that the nonsmokers do not have to breathe second hand smoke . Now go ahead fellow Teamster brothers and bash my head in again for trying to look out for your health again . Lol [/QUOTE]
