[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1565269, member: 8481"] While you say he did not need the union there, what may I ask would have been his options without the union? He may be able to file with the NLRB, but will most likely need an attorney. Some attorneys take cases like this on a contingency basis, but this guy probably makes $250 per week. Good luck finding an attorney whose take would be around $80 for each week he was off. And then the OP would lose that $80 per week to the attorney. And how long would he be off for during this legal process? And if he counts on UPS for his medical, guess what? No medical while he is suing UPS. UPS would starve him out until he took a deal to get his job back with no backpay. It could cost him many thousands of dollars. People don't realize that union dues are a whole lot cheaper than having to sue UPS just 1 time over a wrongful termination. UPS is known to lie and produce a bunch of notorized statements "debunking" the suers facts about the case. In this case, the union saved this guy's job without having to hire an attorney. I'll take this option any day. You're welcome to go hire an attorney and sue them. Remember, UPS has a whole lot more money than you do and UPS does not have a problem spending millions of dollars to deny somebody a dollar. [/QUOTE]
