[QUOTE="BrownShark, post: 255012, member: 12148"] One key thing to remember is how the language is written and whether it defines or confuses an issue. Without clear and defined wording, the company at the operations level will twist and turn it till it fits the daily operation, no matter what hall and the company agreed to across a table. While the interpretation may have been spelled out at the table, the vague and unclear syntax makes it easy for the company to use it against us. Article 37 for example is re-written is a confusing and open ended fashion and leads the way to a multitude of disastrous senarios for package drivers. Each article has a simple worded "out" for the company to use and they can use it by design. This design is intended to create confusion and leave interpretation up to the operators to make the right call. But as any employee knows, that call is not always right and endless grievances have to be file over and over. Vague is not good. We need and should demand clear and defined sentences that leave no wiggle room for the company. Hopefully, we can all agree on this. Peace. [/QUOTE]
