[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 335726, member: 7185"] Wouldn't having the operator terminated be a little difficult? I know that in my work for previous union employers, the Company strongly resisted termination or disciplinary action for manager misconduct. In the one instance I was personally involved in, I think the manager was given a verbal reprimand and went about his duties. I had a target on my back after that one. My employment experience went downhill from there, ending 8 months later when I quit. The Company has acted in its best interest. That's not YOUR best interest OR the employee's best interest but the Company doesn't care about your best interest. It cares about making a return to stockholders. If it has to walk a thin grey line, it will. And if it gets caught, it reacts appropriately. A number of years ago, I spoke to a businessman about unions, union grievances and management. He told me that a lot of times a Company will push the envelop to see if the union is paying attention. Sometimes the Company gets away with its behavior, sometimes not. I have no idea what percentage of the time it gets caught. For most managers, catching the union snoozing is good for a laugh. -Rocky [/QUOTE]
