[QUOTE="blacknproud, post: 277441, member: 12613"] Just wondering, we have a steward on our sort who is a full time 22.3, he is either ON or OFF, I mean he picks his battles. Is that the right way to handle the "company" or is "knit" picking a problem? I wanted to file a grievance on a sup working 1/2 hour when he told me to go to lunch, I took it to my steward and he basicaly said it wasn't worth the headache, it would also be a long time until I got paid, he also said I would be a walking tarfet if I did, I told him as soon as walk into UPS I have a target on my back for calling the corporate line about a different issue. He said you have no idea what a target is only the STEWARDS who don't put up with the managment's crap have the targets against them. So I said fine, went over his head to my full time sup, told him what was going on, he gave me 1 hour of overtime on my check, it was under union time. No harm no foul, although didn't he "play" with the hours and isn't that a no no? In the end I got 1 hour of OT, I was happy and confused. Just thought I'd share.... [/QUOTE]
