[QUOTE="anonymous4, post: 963952, member: 30532"] Union employees will not accept being "the man" to stand up in this environment. Don't you people get it? For $10 an hour you expect 1 out of 100 hourlies to step up and have the entire might of UPS management in that center go after them for filing? IT WON'T HAPPEN. Management has created the optimal environment to allow their sups working without consequence. The answer WAS "man up". The answer is no longer what it was. Change must happen at the top. Supervisors touching our work, taking our jobs must be penalized HARSHLY and the union employees "maning up" must know they are free from being a target. There is no more strength in numbers and that's the point. No one is filing, if you are the lone wolf who does file, your ass is grass. What type of twisted situation is it that if we break rules, we are on the chopping block but the punishment for breaking the contract on their end is a not even enough to stop them from touching work? What follows is that employee being moved to the worst area in the building, and being run into the ground "work as directed" until they quit. If UPS wants you gone, your life will be a living hell. You want people to risk their minimum wage jobs to go through that every day? Stronger language to protect us with stronger language to punish them for taking jobs. It won't happen. The union is far too weak. But the caveat is, it is weak because of us and people like me who won't file. I've filed before, and I paid the price. I will avoid it until my union "brothers" can ensure my head isn't on the chopping block. If everyone was filing things would be different but FACT: They aren't. And when they do the process is drawn out and an enormous joke. [/QUOTE]
