[QUOTE="jibbs, post: 1123463"] I've definitely ingrained both of those lessons in my psyche long before today. Management informed me of the union dues formula on the date I was hired, before I worked a single minute for UPS. Also, while Teamsters are directly responsible, I feel my management is indirectly responsible for not moving the paperwork down the line in a timely fashion. Now, granted, I could be 100% wrong on that-- I just know that my managers, my supervisors are the face of UPS for me. My union steward doesn't know a gosh darn thing about the union (other than it's not HQ'ed in Baltimore) and the two times I've approached managers about union-related issues in the past they've pointed me in the direction of the most ignorant steward that's ever had the privilege to grace this Earth (either that or one that genuinely doesn't want to provide any helpful information to me for whatever reason(s) he may have). My union knowledge comes from this forum and what I was told prior to my hiring date, but mainly from this forum. I don't broach the subject with my managers. I'll definitely consider this a relearning of those lessons, though, even if I feel as though I hadn't broken the rules that they've taught me in the past. [/QUOTE]
