[QUOTE="kingdiamondstylus, post: 5846830, member: 109469"] Hi everyone. RPCD from Desert Mountan district here. I wanted to ask if other members had ever traded their grievances for their jobs in the past? In my building it’s not only normal but some drivers even traded their grievances in order to secure someone ELSES job. I know that in other Centers some drivers file a lot of grievances during Peak for supe working. This year, I had about 8$k in grievances waiting to be settled. In the meantime just after the new year, I had a medical issue while I was on the clock. I had to end my day early and essentially immediately with little notice to management. Even though I have FMLA, they still put my feet to the fire, fired me for abandoning my job. Just before my Center level hearing, my Steward said that they were all over me for the grievances and would I settle the termination case by surrendering those (unrelated) grievances. I could return to work immediately if so. The other option I was given was to face the panel in about a month for possible discharge because at this point the company didn’t want to negotiate. I did give them the money since I was too scared of losing somehow at panel. Obviously it’s already passed but in hindsight it seemed shady because now I feel like their eyes are on me again. And with no more pending grievances I feel very vulnerable. Plus they doing everything to cut that they can. Now I’m double nervous. Does this happen in your building? Will they still focus on me or will I have a little bit of peace? They still haven’t paid out our grievances from Peak either btw. Thanks for your input. FTM’s!!! [/QUOTE]
