[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 4524177, member: 58386"] First labor laws vary from state to state. In every one of the incidents that I bore witness to where people were terminated for time card violations the companies response was all the same. "it's the law.......it's the law". Now consider this.....Fat Freddy has made it perfectly clear that his company come hell or high water WILL be the lowest cost carrier in the industry. So here you are a low seniority full time employee and easily replaced with a low cost part time employee making a 40% lower wage and zero benefits . In addition, you are a nonunion "at will" employee with little to no legal recourse. Yeah sure,you have a laughable, purely symbolic grievance process but just remember who's signing the paycheck of the guy who will decide your case so don't expect him to stickup for you if it's a case of willful violation. Sure, I've heard all about your pursuit of a degree in English. But, there is no shortage of people out there with English degrees doing things for a living they thought they would never be going ........Why? Because in the end.........YOU WILL TAKE WHAT THE ECONOMY WILL GIVE YOU !......Regardless of what you might BELIEVE you're entitled to. And that reason alone why nothing else needs to be said about the matter. [/QUOTE]
