[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 772156, member: 927"] Steve, Unfortunately, we are both part of the process we created. If I had my own company and a person made a mistake, I might just talk to the person. Another person with a similar mistake, I may fire. It would depend on the person, situation, and other factors. If I just spoke with the person, and he/she did it again, I could fire him/her for the second offense. I guess I could give a more stern warning if I wanted.... We don't have this situation at UPS and both UPS and the Union created the process. If UPS needs to terminate a person for a second or third offense, each offense must be documented, right? And, it has to be documented the same for everyone, right? I view warning letters as just what they say... A warning of a situation and just part of a process. I do agree that some managers inappropriately give out warning letters..... To me, that just becomes a waste of time and paper. So, yes the process is both a way to change behavior and to change employ if needed. P-Man [/QUOTE]
