[QUOTE="Pachiquin, post: 788780, member: 32115"] UPSSOCKS said "I will answer your question correctly. You can't rely on the uneducated union folk for advice. #1 as management part or full time you can do anything you want to. Always remember that... create the rules." [B]LOL "...create the rules."[/B] Recently, this sort of ARROGANCE occurred at my center. It caused an hourly who had been rebuffed for a simple work assignment (should have been based on seniority rather than popularity) to blow the whistle to a major government agency for two SERIOUS safety violations. The resulting consequences resulted in the loss of two full time management jobs and large fines for UPS. Lesson to be learned (for management and hourlies): follow all laws, follow all safety codes and follow all aspects of the Master Agreement to the very best of your ability in order to secure sustained job security. I know that it is impossible to be perfect, but, having seen the terminations up close and personal, it is much better to always try to do everything by the book. Who expects a disgruntled employee to blow the whistle? If the supervisors had done everything correctly (labor contract and glaringly serious safety protocol), then they could have carried on earning a good income rather than been the reason that UPS got caught with its pants down.
