[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 2500008, member: 42270"] A good lawyer cannot change the merits of a case. Lawyers are not magicians. The NLRB agreed that the discharge was a result of UPS retaliating for protected, concerted activity. The NLRB then agreed with that claimant violated the company professional conduct policy; I don't believe RA was doing this maliciously and was simply blowing off steam during a very stressful period of his life but that doesn't change what he said. When your argument for reinstatement is based on the claim that you were wrongfully terminated, then it is best to conduct yourself as if you are still employed. BRF should be dragged in front of the Independent Review Officer and forced to answer charges of collusion with UPS and violating the IBT constitution by knowingly harming a fellow union member. I've seen some of the e-mails and they're pretty damning. The E-Board of our union doesn't reflect the makeup of the membership but BUG (or anyone else on BC) didn't make that call. Not quite sure where you're getting this golfing while members are on strike nonsense from. As far as being a rookie.. how many cases have YOU taken to the NLRB, champ? You need to learn that your fellow Teamsters can (rightfully) disagree with you without necessarily being a company shill. [/QUOTE]
