[QUOTE="jibbs, post: 1859630"] No offense meant to you if that driver was/is a buddy of yours, cementups, but that driver's kind of a d-bag for going for a workman's comp claim for an injury sustained playing, not football even, but :censored:ing [B][I]catch[/I][/B]. I don't think I'd ever go for workman's comp unless I felt the company itself was at fault for my injury or if I'd go thousands of dollars of debt trying to cover medical costs myself. Neither is likely to happen but they're both possible.... I just feel like dude jammed his finger and saw an easy couple of paydays. I understand that thinking, but I definitely don't respect it. We can grieve that? With a chance of winning the grievance, I mean? I always thought that was kind of an SOL position and grievances were between Teamsters and management-- not Teamster-on-Teamster. I regularly get sent home about 15min-30min before air runs simply because the drivers have shown up and are told to wrap up their loads themselves, and it's crazy because lately I make sure I'm always one of the last two people on my belt pulling packages for my entire side-- I've recently been moved to a much more conventional belt than the doghouse I've been in for the past year-- while they send all but one other loader (to cover the other side) on the belt home. [That previous sentence is long af, bros, but I checked and checked and checked and that ma:censored:a is [b]not[/b] a run-on. Proud of myself for that.] Once the drivers start trickling in, though, we get the boot real :censored:in' quick. I know I can grieve when supervisors start doing that, but I had no clue I could grieve drivers working off the clock.... Don't think I would unless I was feeling extra spiteful that day, though.
