I work at UPS and I am in small sort. We have a new "next generation" system whereby you scan the package and a flashing light tells you "where to put the box". I put that in quotes because most of my area is in some kind of missort trouble with the new system. I can read slics (I loaded for about two years) and I constantly read them because it is my natural inclination. I have received a letter for termination but I have a grievance meeting on Thursday to plead my case. On the other hand, there have been at least 5 times that I can think of where I have seen the machine tell me to put a box somewhere when I know it goes somewhere else. I have showed this to my union steward and they have made copies which will be shown in the meeting which helps my case a little.
The big question that I have and one that I have gotten different answers on from different people is "Where (if anywhere) does the union contract specifically say that you can be terminated for missorts?
If you were me, would you feel worried at all?
Thanks for your help.
