[QUOTE="brown_trousers, post: 984023, member: 29972"] I would be very happy to see more people take their UPS problems to the courts (with or without an attorney). It just doesn't seem like enough of a punishment to go through the grievance process to only have the union agent shake their finger at management and say "shame on you, don't do that again", which seems like that is how 75% of all grievances are resolved. I mean... come on.... thats not a resolution at all! At least in court, UPS would have to pay for their own legal representation (already a bit of punishment for them), and if you could get the case heard by a jury, you might find some sympathy from your community with them ruling for a blue (or brown) collar worker over a large tyrannical corporation. If you could get the case into small-claims court. legal representation is NOT allowed, so UPS wouldn't be able to bring their attorneys with them. And you should also look into if you are afforded any attorney benefits in your area. In my area, we pay a very small monthly dues for legal attorney services that we can use if the need should arise. [/QUOTE]
