[QUOTE="LarryBird, post: 4102818, member: 76548"] If this isn't a troll, he's probably still gonna get his job back if he's willing to go to inpatient rehab. It won't be for 90 days. It won't even be for 28 days - usually insurance will only pay for 21 days for a person's first trip to rehab. So he will go to 21 days inpatient, then he will have conditions to meet to come back...#1 is meeting an addiction specialist for an aftercare assessment...#2 is likely to be some hoops that the addiction specialist sets up such as therapy sessions or outpatient rehab once per week for a bit...#3 is a clean piss test and breathalyzer upon completion of whatever aftercare program he's given before he can return...#4 is two 12 step meetings per week for like 3 months with the signatures of two attendees at each meeting necessary and these will be sent in to the SAP...#5 is random drug and alcohol screening for a minimum of 1 year, to be extended up to 5 years, depending on the recommendation of the SAP. If he gets a hot piss or registers even a .02 on the breathalyzer, he's gone, and there's nothing anyone in the union or at UPS can do - once he's in the program they're not even involved, because of a potential conflict of interest, it's the SAP who is in control of everything, including when and how often the tests will be.
