[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 514390, member: 13254"] [COLOR=Sienna] I don't know why I let this pass till now, but I beg to differ. In our center we had a 30 year driver who's odometer just quit working during the day, it showed him with like 30 miles on a route that averaged 250-300 miles per day. When he returned to the center he wrote it up on the DVIR and because there was no full time management in the building he asked the OMS/specialist what he should do. The OMS told him to estimate his mileage, he did so. His estimated miles entered was 275. The next morning he talked to the center manager and was told that was OK to do that. 3 months later the odometer still had not been replaced and he had kept writing up the problem and estimating the same miles because his route rarely changed in logistics and he had been told it was OK. They fired him for dishonesty. He missed 2 months work and wages for this atrocity. He reluctantly accepted the company's offer to return him to work without back pay or reinstatement of lost time to his retiement contributions becuase he was afraid an arbitrator would not side with him and he was too close to his planed retirement date. He had always done his job without too much harassment but when they had him over a barrel they exploited the oprotunity. Now, try again to tell me that no one doing their job needs a union.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
