[QUOTE="Airstrike, post: 98554"] When I was first hired I worked with a loader who was extremely hyper. He would continuously punch the walls of trailers, metal slides, oh and 'boxes.' Not just punching boxes mind you - but also surfing down the rollers on top of one, or jumping off of the rollers and giving flying elbows to boxes or just propelling his entire body into a wall of helpless merchandise. Yes, everyone including our supervisor and our Lead supervisor knew he did this and he never got so much as written up for it. Then one day an axe with only a flimsy loose cardboard flap over half of the blade happens to come down the belt and into our trailer. What does this employee do you might ask? Well, he hacks away at about 4 or five boxes with a huge smile on his face, at which time i immediately leave the trailer to go to the 'restroom' I was scared to death of this guy. When I returned there were now two holes in the sides of the trailer, you could see all the way through, and the axe currently was stuck in the floor of the trailer, he couldn't get it out :) While I was away apparantly three people had joined in on all of the fun!!! and seemed to be urging him on. The head of security happened to walk by at that moment. BEST PART YET TO COME: This individual was immediately fired, however, those good ole' teamsters got him his job back two months later, when he said he was "pressured" by people on our belt to do what he did. And then less than a year later he became a SUPand he still IS!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
