I should not give my opinion on the terminations, since I do not have all of the facts. Also, I have not even heard of working terminations...
However, many years (and contracts) ago, we had a similar situation, concerning a driver being terminated. The BA came to the building one morning, and we had a "union meeting" in the wash tunnel, that just happened to run past our start time. This was 30+ years ago, so my memory fails me; but I believe it lasted 1/2 hour past our start time--give or take. The point is that the BA knew just how far he could push the issue, and he was not foolish enough to lead everyone off the property. Management got the message, and the driver got his job back.
