[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 553118, member: 1912"] [COLOR=blue]This is one reason why a union motto has been work now grieve later. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff][/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]I'm not sure why or how we have given the impression that the sup does not have the authority to fire. The rule wherever I have been has always been that if its not a safety issue then a driver refusing a supervisors instructions given then that driver can be fired on the spot. The supervisor has to have that authority in order to be able to operate. You can't be running a sort or riding with a driver and make service on the packages if you have the employee challenging and refusing every instruction.
