[QUOTE="Kyle-ProRI, post: 302336, member: 13581"] [B][U]First, thanks for all your comments. I am responding to most of your replies. Less than 24 hours ago I created this thread, seeing as this site is monitored like a prison, Norwood contacted ProRI and union stewarts are already on this, they want me to have a meeting with this guy tomorrow so "He knows what kinda guy you(as in me) are, and make him like you". Why does this seem like a personal issue now rather than a saftey issue? Today I had 2 leakers, one being a liquid the second being a powder. The liquid looked nothing like water but more a oil based product. Either way water or not, Im still doing my job and contacting a sup and getting DMP to control the pkg. Then I get the eyes rolled at me because Im already under the radar for this :censored::censored::censored::censored:. Supe comes in trailer, ask me what it is, I dont know, he reads the Ref # on address label and says "its friend------ car parts" and removes it from feeder. When DMP comes, he asks me where it is and if I know what it is. Told him about the supe, [SIZE=3]and he said how does he know what it is? [/SIZE][SIZE=2]Which is my point in this whole ordeal. Now for the powder, I dont screw with that stuff. There was atleast 2 pounds of it on the feeder floor. Before DMP even is NOTIFIED, supe picks up the package and that much more is on the ground as he walks it out of the trailer. Oh yeah, left my load stand near the pile because I wasnt going in the area no matter what the issue was, before supe even came in the trailer he tell me to take my stand out, while the package is just laying there with a large amount of powder on the ground.... Obviously I refused. [/SIZE][/U][/B] Which is another SERIOUS issue. Im allset with being reliable for someones death because its "Just rain water" Could careless that he touched it, but he smelled it and said "We dont have time to respond to every single rained on pkg. When you see a wet pkg. like this, set it aside, take it out when your done" Yeah, wasn't rain water, ended up being a mild acidic base t something I believe.
