Yeah....go to work, shut your mouth, do your job, punch out, go home. Dave.
She then comes back with her trusty camera and is still harrassing this guy and is now theatened to fire him for egress send him home for stopping the belt and she is now saying things such as (i could hire a monkey off the street that can load these trucks better than you) she then starts taking pictures of his trucks all of my trucks too...now im PISSED i ask why are you taking pictures of my trucks i thought i had nothing to do with this. She states that i should have been helping him but the egress from the KC have prevented me to.
The other day you were pissed she was taking pictures of only your vehicles, now you are pissed she is taking pictures of someone else and your vehicle.
I'm not saying this supv is appropriate for what you are saying she did.
As I've said many times, there is usually your side, her side and the truth falls in the middle.
You also mentioned she was "yelling" at someone else and you jumped in on conversation. I'm guessing here that this was going on during the preload itself. If she is to discipline an employee the employee has the right and should ask for a steward. I find it hard to believe that you can be discussing this with her while loading (at an incredible pace) and working safely. You are making this personal, and it will hurt you in the end.
Gotta be really young, this guy....
Totally didn't mean to type that Yoda-style.
He's probably close to us in age, but "young" is relative anyway. And even though we're getting older, we're becoming younger. Don't believe me? For many years, things/products like MTV, spring break, American Eagle clothing, Axe, etc. use to target traditional college-age persons. Now MTV's broadcasting spring break from Las Vegas, Cancun (sans a few properties) markets itself to the 25 & up crowd during spring break, and products like AE/Axe advertise through mediums targeting the 25-40 crowd.
And yes there is NO center manager there hasnt been one for the entire year and a half i have been there...from what i understand he is on disibility i personaly never saw/met him. And he supposally bounces around all the small town near me so its not a set position
There NEEDS to be a center manager in my center idc if he is a dick or not just another person of higher power than this on-car she runs it like she is the center manager she needs to be kept in check
2. if management is taking pictures with their cell phone, then what's stopping the working from using theirs.
But you have suggested before that drivers should use their cell phone to take pictures of the DIAD messages. I have trouble keeping up sometimes. Sorry.You mean other than the big sign in your facility prohibiting the use of photographic devices?
Ok, I dont know if anyone reading this is familiar with my constant harrassment battle with my FT manager but many posts have been made and i thank everyone who has responded but today takes the cake...heres how it goes:
On tuesday i was bumped from my normal preload position due to a driver (coming into the preload) pulling the senority card on me. I was on new trucks and wanted to make sure that i did a good job and not have any misloads because i am a steward and i know SUPS are out to get me anyway they can.
Towards the end of the sort i had some stack outs (as did a few others). I was wraping up my trucks when the FT sup (who has been harrassing me for sometime now) came up to me and asked me when i had stack out and that it was unacceptable. I told her that i am just following my methods and i wont put anything into my trucks w/o checking both labels. I told her that the reason why i dont get misload is because i follow my methods everyday. She left and then came back and started taking pictures on her phone of my "stack outs" and continued telling me if i did my methods properly i would not have stack out.
Anyway i left there feeling pretty confident that i did a good job. I was laid off yesterday but when i returned today i was brought into the office. I asked my other steward to come with me and when we both walked into the office she told him there was no need for him to be there as i was not getting written up and she just wanted to "talk" she showed the the misload report from tuesday and i apparently had 5 misloads. She said if she were to write me up it would be a working temination and if i were to withdraw the previous SUPS working grievances (which amount to about 200-300 dollars) that she would no write me up a blatent BRIBE. She said she has the misloads here (from Tuesday) and would be taking pictures of them that i didnt circle my labels. And i would be written up for 5 misloads.
My questions...
What can i do as i feel like i am still being harrassed and now BRIBED...this is rediulous and i want this to stop is making this type of bribe against UPS policy. I am in no way going to accept but i feel like she is going to get revenge on me one way or another. I was pretty much threatened my job for grievances i filed on SUPS working...is this against any laws???? And why is she holding unserviced packages for 3 days now???
