Okay, i need some feedback on this. I am a 15 year driver, today was 15 days of no pay. I was terminated 3 weeks ago for dishonesty, management said. I was using the over 70 key to much, we are not a bonus center. At the time i did not think anything about it, i was told years ago by my first on car sup that if you have oversized boxes that take a long time to put them in over 70 so you get credit for the time. Well management pulled my records and i addmitted to them that alot of the boxes were not actually over 70, they were just big oversize boxes, so you know the rest of the story. terminated on the grounds of being dishonest about it, they say. I have nothing on my record in 15 years, i have no accidents or injuries on the job in 15 years, great service to customers etc. I cant believe this is happening to me, it has turned my life and family upside down.
But get this, about 3 days after i was terminated the on car sup got busted, charges on him were dishonesty and falsify records. He had been telling us drivers for about 2 years to sheet up pkgs as closed or not in when they were misloaded on us, to keep from showing missed. we all knew it was wrong but we were doing what we were told. also we were told to ec pkgs to keep us under 9/5
So anyhow, our on car sup still has his jop, he just got repermanded i hear. I currently have no job and headed to 2 state hearing. I dont want anyone to go through what i have been going through, i dont want anyone losing there job.
