[QUOTE="Ptrunner, post: 315746, member: 14530"] Im the original thread maker and i was hoping to get my question answered and Im not sure if it was answer but i think after reading all these post, Ive come to a conclusion. Ill just take a walk and ill look to see whose working. And if they tell me no more walking around, first ill see if the business agent tells me i can keep walking around. And then if they tell me i cant walk around, then i can say well you must be hiding something and anytime i see a supe working, i might as well nickle and dime them until they want to let me walk. 3 years ago I did this. We had some pt supes who didnt know the contract. I could see through the cars doors onto other belts and i was on the belt across from them. Everyday i was watching supes work and after 3 warnings i gave the full time supe that i was going to file. And the pt supe began closing the doors so i couldnt see through anymore. Sometimes i could see them splitting the belt though so i told the supe if you want to keep those car doors closed then ill just file for 1 min greivances and so on. And he said Im going to look bad for doing it. And i didnt care. I filed for 12 mins the next week, and then the Labor Manager and Center Manager at the grievance hearing told me starting on monday those doors would be open and the supes would stop working. And they did. They put 2 extra people on the belt. Tieguy why couldnt the full time supe do his job and get 2 extra people on the belt. Because they dont care they have to get their numbers. They dont care about the contract they signed with the union. Isn't that so childish to actually close doors to block so no one will file a grievance. Everyone on the belt was college kids and they just want to get the work done and go home. Now those same college kids care about the contract because guess what, all that hard work got them no where, they didn't get a bonus for busting their butts, they didn't get more full time jobs made.
