[/B][/SIZE][FONT=Arial][SIZE=3][SIZE=4]Make sure that if you are cornered, sequestered, or in any other way badgered into a one-on-one situation with management, you exert your Weingarten rights. Also, make sure the Union follows through with the defense they should provide you, with respect to those rights. If not, file a grievance, then hire some big gun labor law attorney's to wake up the Union as to why they exist in the first place! [SIZE=3] Mosel Tov! :wink:[/SIZE] [/SIZE] [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
