[QUOTE="20_years_in, post: 858423, member: 36081"] [b]Re: Older driver fired for "not using 3 points of contact", but really for performanc[/b] He has negligible prior disciplinary action. This matter of not using 3 points of contact and improperly loading a handtruck is, indeed, his huge transgression that has him fighting to keep his job. Like I said, though, he does have a slower pace. I believe he is pacing his body to make it to retirement. He knew that they were after him for running 2.00 hours over, and he knew that they were out there filming him and looking for [U][B][I]any[/I][/B][/U] charge with which to discharge him. I believe that he is being fired for these small technicalities and not anything prior to last week. It is all about his slower pace, I am sure. But our runner-gunners are out there using all kinds of shortcuts that do not fall under the methods, but management does not enforce the safety rules with them. So unfair--isn't there something that can be done with regard to the double standards? [/QUOTE]
