[QUOTE="twoweeled, post: 2308350, member: 27108"] My brother. We get your story. Don't be so repetative. His friends are witness, and you stand up for yourself. We get it. What Piedmont said, is pretty much it. I asked the labor manager if I could bring an attorney and I was told, NO. Clear and concise.I have a feeling, you talk a lot in your meetings. Gotta keep your responses short. Don't ramble on. We tend to give too much information. I'm assuming, your not working now? This may fall under cardinal sin. In a nutshell buddy, and this is a very wild guess because I know little to nothing about your case. If your not working now. The agreement could have already been made. They could be holding you off of work for a few weeks. Then at the end of a few weeks off - They'll offer you your job back WITHOUT back pay, with a very stern warning. The BA would already be aware of the agreement of course, so he's not going to spend a lot of time on it. If your still working. Then it's not looking good. They will generally bring you in and discuss what arbitration is going to be like to prepare you. Yes, it was after work but still on property. You don't have much argument, except they should have discharged both parties. Discrimination if you can prove it. That may be a position the company doesn't want to be in. But they may not care either. UPS knows, attorney's are expensive. Not sure if you know how much that'll cost you. I hope you looked hard for another witness. If the cameras work, the Union will probably get the video, but they may not work! Video can be subpoena, but it's a process and may exclude you from arbitration if it's your own attorney. Police can subpoena video, but they won't. Again. Very wild guess. You'll be back in a few weeks. But I know nothing about your case, your local, or your managers. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
