[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 2580741, member: 8481"] I agree. And I did not say that it happens all over the country. I say that if it happens here, it might happen over there, but I do not know for sure. Also, the one person most known for doing it over here is no longer here. He got into trouble doing other questionable things and is facing possible charge at this time. But, to his defense, he thought he was doing it for the members. Two cases at the panel. One is a $5000 penalty pay grievance. The other is a discharge for a father with 3 kids that did something stupid. Yes, he may win this case on it's own merits, but UPS has him dead to rights and would have to give in. Yes, it could happen, but here is how it goes. UPS tells Bill that they do not want to pay this $5000. Bill tells UPS that this father needs to keep his job and take care of his family. Nothing more is said. The outcome? The father is put back with time off, time served and UPS did not pay the penalty pay grievance. So, in all fairness, I cannot say that this practice of horse trading is still going on to this date. But past practice is indicative of future behavior. [/QUOTE]
