[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 522297, member: 6408"] OK, am gonna try to just clarify MY view to finally put MY opinions to rest. I started this thread to see if anybody heard this. I didn't start a rumor(I thot), I was asking for more info. I have since found out quite a bit more and found it's all true and more. In my diatribe about DTS school and graduates(or non-grads, as the case may be), I was expressing MY view from MY home domicile. HERE, I think the condition is very bad. In my whole career here, either in PC or feeders, this is the first time that not a one in management or supe has ever been a driver. I don't mean feeder driver, I mean driver ANYTHING! HERE at least 4 maybe 5 supes have never been full time until they bumped here. A couple went kicking and screaming to DTS. A couple went thinking they were gonna knock the earth off its axis when they came back. A couple did not pass and had to have additional training and testing to pass. A few of the supes and mangers don't even have CDLs but yet they're "observing" us on our pre and post-trips with the clipboards. They and some p/t supes still there are giving US the Ketter test "urging" us to "know it soon" while they have the sheet in from of them not being able to recite themselves. The DTers we have now...I'm scared to death to let them drive(I know I don't have to but I'm thinking maybe they've improved) on my annual. In my asking the original question about this manager, usually I could care less if this happened. But, from what I've heard about him, this guy is a real arse kicker. Instant termination for any supposed offense imaginable. So, IN MY OPINION, if this did happen(which now I know it did and much worse), he should be dealt with harshly. We are told constantly that, "We hold our management to higher standards". So letting him off with an "incident" report is a higher standard? Well, it's just confusing, at least to me. I don't think it should be a union vs non-union comparison. It should be a what's right and what's wrong comparison. I, PERSONALLY, would have more respect for a department or company if some type of visible discipline would take place, as it is with all others. So, that's essentially it.
