Fred Z and Sean O unify so they can run together, but they need RH out of the way

[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 3046037, member: 14176"] No it's akin to tomato or potato. [I]Fault[/I] is what the cop considers when deciding who gets the ticket, per the letter of the law. [I]Avoid-ability [/I]is an arbitrary premise that references the methodologies of the Company in regards to whether we can hypothetically dodge the mistakes of others, hence the oxymoronic UPS catchall phrase "expect the unexpected". It puts us at the mercy of a bunch of Monday morning quarterbacks, who's only goal is to shift liability from the Company, to the bonded and insured package car driver. Tell that to the kid that just got disqualified Tuesday (his 29th day) due to an arbitrary Company determination of "avoidable", even though the other party involved in the accident was banging out a text on her cell phone and was sited at the scene. ....and no, none of the criteria in Art 18 was met to classify this as a "serious accident". You, [USER=57235]@wide load[/USER], and I will have to agree to disagree then, as I continue to contend that it is sloppy language, slanted heavily in the Company's favor, that needs to be addressed in the upcoming contract negotiations. ~Bbbl~™ [/QUOTE]
