Fired for something that happened a month ago?

[ups556]

Hello! On 6/13 I went to work at my local hub, everything was normal as usual until I noticed my building manager by my unload trailer. He then began to question me and ask me if I was ok, trying to get a rise out of me. I told him that I was perfectly fine and I would appreciate if he leave me alone and work. He then tries to defend himself and say he is not harassing me. He then takes it a step further and says he is calling my steward over to talk with me.

About 5 minutes pass by and my steward and security show up at my unload door. The steward advises me to bring my belongings. When I got to the bottom of the ladder he said we were going to the building managers office to have a talk. When we get to his office he begins to question me about my attendance. My manager asked me what happened on 5/14 and why I didnt show up. I told him I dont know and then he proceeds to ask me for my UPS i.d. I talked with my steward for a minute and he told me that the manager is allowed to ask for my i.d which confuses me because they are bringing up something that happened a month ago, and I have gotten no letters in the mail.

The building manager then advises that I be escorted out of the building by security. On our way out we saw our BA walking in the door and stopped to talk with him for a minute. He said that he was going to keep in contact with me and reach out soon. Well, it has been a month since Ive been fired and I have recieved no information about what is going on.


No call or messages from UPS or my union. This whole situation seems fishy and I am not sure if the union is protecting me to the full extent. I messaged my steward 2 days ago and he says because I didnt file a grievance I'm pretty much done. I have been working with UPS for 5 years and still want my job. Are they doing me dirty by not going through the firing/grievance process or can I possibly be rehired? It is just hard for me to understand how they can use something against me a month ago when I even asked for time off, thank you for your time

Let me get this straight, So you missed one day of work (you don’t know why), they get building manager, steward and security walks you out? Hmm . That escalated quickly

I missed that day of worked because my cat died. I tried to ask for time off but they declined it because it wasnt a person. It did escalate quickly and I am confused why I am being "terminated" after only serving one, 1 day suspension in the past and I havent received any letters in the mail since.

Why did you not file a grievance? Why did you wait a month to reach out to your BA after being fired?

He’s a millionaire now I hear.

He’s too distraught from the death of his cat?

I figured. It upsets me that my union is letting this slide too. How do I go about getting a lawyer, I have never had to deal with something like this, Thank you.

My steward told me he filed a grievance on my termination. I waited a month to reach out to my BA because HE said he was going to reach out to me.

A cat? A dog sure, but a cat? That’s one step up from a squirrel

Well you're officially fired because you waited a month to check on your job. Good luck to you.

Remind your steward that a grievance needs an article from which you were disciplined for. Without a letter, no grievance. In most cases, discipline must be addressed within 10 days of the company's knowledge. Seeing it was an attendance issue, I believe the clock ran out prior to the company approaching you. I would try again with your steward, BA and finally a lawyer. Your local should have one that has experience with UPS issues.

If you wanted the job so bad, why wait I month? I would have been at his office every in’ day.

Fired for one no call no show? Or what was the specific firing offense?
