[QUOTE="10 Pt, post: 2932122"] Heck, in our building for several weeks a former PDS was running 3000 pkgs an hr down the primary slide on three sorters and they couldn't even move having been burried in pkgs up to their hips all over the walk area. One borrowed his coworker's phone and took pictures to show the safety committee what they had been complaining about... tho all the while getting no help. They both got walked out for taking pictures of illegal egress. One for taking them and the other for owning the phone that was used. They eventually got their job back but without back pay (thanks to the local). There can be retribution for exercising your rights but if you have honest representation an employee should be covered. I doubt if any of our preloaders stand up for themselves again after that but not everyone has the same representation that we do... Thank God. [/QUOTE]
