I cut a hole in the roof of the 700 series truck.we have no spares to the bulkhead door. I have done this before since the keys have been a on going situation. last year I did it to make service. I was given a pat on the back and told good job. Now I was told to make a statement hand over my ID gas card and told I was on suspension.
Discipline, as always, is arbitrary and capricious. If a favorite does something bad, it is overlooked, but if you are on the Sheetlist, they're on it like flies on a cowpie. Again, please note everything you hear or say that isn't kosher in a notebook or on your phone. Like you said, you did it before and got an "attaboy", so they've got nothing.
Here's a concrete example of how it works. I snapped a cellphone pic of a manager taking a hit of booze from a bottle he had stashed in his car in the parking lot. Same manager tries to write me up 6 months later for something bogus. I whip out my phone and show him the picture, and say nothing. Issue resolved, matter dropped.
