[QUOTE="Mike23, post: 603914"] ANY violence in the work place I'd handle thus: 1. Get the names of the witnesses in the area. Even swearing at you justifies a harassment suit. Of course, not in UPS land but in the actual code of laws, you know, that thing that UPS likes to skirt around? 2. Get police involved BEFORE UPS. This brings in a nonbiased third party and starts a paper trail (outside of UPS) on the stupidvisor. I would also imagine a police report would come in VERY handy during a grievance process as well as if he causes problems for you in the future, to take a restraining order against him. I'm sure the center manager would be extremely pissed but they don't need to be informed since it's you're right to phone the police if you feel threatened in any way. 3. Inform your BA 4. Inform your sup. I'm sure they'd be pissed for not being told first but that's only because they can't cover things up before the police arrive. 5. Call the 800 number I just like to leave management out of anything until the last possible minute. This way things don't 'disappear' when the police do show up. I don't know about the rest of you but there are two lines you don't cross. That's threatening with bodily harm and physical intimidation (including fights). Hell, who knows how unstable this sup is? Maybe after your first day back he'll pull a gun and say you've friend me over for the last time? Scary, but there are A LOT of messed up people that work for UPS. [/QUOTE]
