[QUOTE="brownelf, post: 973797, member: 27863"] in my original post above I was refering to the OP concerns for keeping his job, bitch all you want about the safety committees being controlled by the company and useless in your centers I don't really care. But making an effort to fix the problem will help you if it gets to the discipline stage regardless of what little it means to any of you. My job as steward has always been one as a mediator to help those who would prefer to keep their jobs, if I can go into a hearing with an employee who can show an effort (real or otherwise) to fix the problem it helps at the hearing stage. Doing nothing but filing a grievance, which I always recommend whenever you receive a warning letter, is not going to show a willingness to fix the problem. In our center all accidents are reviewed by the safety committee (yes, I'm a member for this very reason) and many times after review they have been changed from at fault to not at fault. By no means to we get them all changed but at least it's not a rubber stamp at fault as it seems to be in many areas. My life at UPS is not all rainbows and lolipops by any means and I can't wait to get out myself. I'm tired of all the BS, my body hurts from the long hrs and the whining of those who refuse to file greivances on problems they want fixed without doing so. At one time this forum was an place to get answers and opinions on issues at UPS, now its become just a way for many to socialize and ridicule those whose opinions are not their own. JMO [/QUOTE]
