[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 58217"] If the union and company blatantly screws someone the lawyer route is always available, good luck because it is rarely cut and dried and the terminated employee is seldom squeaky clean, nor the company an evil giant so the lawyer bit is an over rated threat. "I'll sue UPS for a million bucks" is about as common a saying with employees as "I'm innocent" is with convicts. If the union is faced with a situation where let us say 18 employees conspired to attempt to seriously damage UPS, it's day to day operations and it's reputation (purely a hypothetical scenario) and UPS terminates all of them and then appears willing to only take three of the fold permanently down and let the other fifteen resume their careers. Does the union risk all eighteen careers and all the ruined family lives that that entails knowing no arbitrator is going to believe the eighteen were innocent victims or do they concede and save the fifteen? Some would call that "trading" like it is a nefarious secret society thing while others will acknowledge that real life is full of compromise, give and take or "trading", if you will, especially when you are not innocent and only children believe that knights were pure.
