[QUOTE="ski or die, post: 1488441, member: 52818"] As far as what you are currently terminated for, you might try harassment. How many package drivers use their cell phones for personal calls during business hours. How many clerical people use the phones on their desks or cell phones for personal calls. Everyone receives personal calls including management during business hours. I'm just putting this out there to confront this issue of the dismissal. If somehow, the drug test passes, you might try to show you were being singled out for personal use of a phone. And then also explain why you had to because the company had not furnished you the proper materials (maps) to perform your job. Your BA and Steward cannot stop you from filing a grievance. They may not help you at your hearing, but it would be your first step before contacting the NLRB. If the dismissal ends up being just for theft of time, the grievance then can be shown to NLRB how the company was singling just you for harassment. You could also then be able to explain to the NLRB what your BA has discussed with you about not helping, and also show if he did not attempt to defend you at the hearing. Be sure to keep notes of dates, times, places and people of any discussions with management or union for evidence including what is said at the hearing. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
