Remember, we care about you....

[ContainmentIssue]

Two 5+ year drivers terminated yesterday for attendance. I get it, you have to come to work, but this is a reminder to members who may think you have a good relationship with management and nothing like this would happen to you. When it comes down to it, they have no problem walking you out the door 6 days before Christmas; they're not your friend and are looking for any excuse to fire you, especially right now.

Call in the air drivers. Have me on a route today I assume because of too many call ins.

How often were they calling out? Also are they terminated or terminated pending grievance hearing?

Was this at a panel? How do you get terminated If it’s not a panel decision? Did they agreed to termination?

Every termination here has to go to a hearing. And if it’s deadlocked, it would go to a panel, rarely do people lose their jobs for attendance. having said that I would tell those people to fix their attendance issues.

The call outs were getting frequent for a few months, thought 1 had Fmla though. The talk is they didn't grieve properly during the progressive discipline process, but I don't think they actually served any of the suspensions? Attendance overall is what we heard.

A real union person would say no. You take advantage for personal gain. Not that I really care. I despise the company AND the useless representation.

Our supervisors need to stop calling off! they’re barely here !!!!!

I agree they need to come to work; they got walked out before start time yesterday

Like I said, I don’t see how that could happen if it wasn’t a panel decision. Hopefully the proper grievances were filed.

That's a bad thing? Huh?

They'll come back, another group gets fired; voila, no layoffs

Well attendance would be a working termination correct? So I'm betting they didn't file a proper grievance or an untimely grievance and now it's too late.

they call out? lol, weaklings

I haven't called out since I was an hourly, even when I had the china flu I was working

Perhaps, and if that’s the case that’s on them.

Some drivers now just say it and don’t care if they get canned. Different times, different generation.

If a grievance wasn't filed properly/in a timely manner, can they still go to panel or are they out of options?

SOL

Yet.... you don't have the balls to run for office and do something about it.

What a pusillanimous.
