[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1624859, member: 14668"] To a point at least I would agree, but I would leave out the name calling and personal attacks because they contribute nothing positive to the situation. An intervention isn't about personal attacks; its about confronting someone with a problem in a manner that will (A) motivate them to get help and (B) make it clear what personal boundaries [B]YOU[/B] are now drawing to prevent their behavior from causing further problems in your life. In this case, instead of all the insults, it might be better to state the following: "Listen, it is quite obvious to a number of us that you are coming to work intoxicated. We can smell alcohol on your breath and your treatment of us has been totally inappropriate. We have documented the dates and times that this has occurred. You have two choices; either take a leave of absence and enter treatment immediately, or as a group we will forward our concerns to UPS Human Resources and file a grievance for harassment and creating unsafe work conditions for us." You have now put the ball in his court and made it clear what measures you will be taking to protect yourself from his behavior, without stooping to his level. [/QUOTE]
