UPS secaucus precharge late

[JG3]

Did they fire everyone, or just you?

They fired a couple people. I was told some were suspended others got a free pass. Then there’s this one guy who has more lates but never got called to the conference room.

 

[JG3]

Sounds legit. You should have been fired way before that.

What the is "precharge"?
Is that PCM?

Evidently they do and did.

They didn’t do it two years ago, they just recently started.

 

[Yolo]

Did you get a warning letter and first?

Did you get a warning letter and first?

Nah automatic discharged. This FT supervisor and me never got along. Maybe I should have told on them FT supervisors that would get in the trucks and start unloading boxes.

 

[Bob11B]

So....you in the union?

Are you aware of the union?

Yes this is the thing they came to me in October with this and they was going to fire me l,but i told them hey they kept marking me late for precharge. The management went outside to talk to the union reps and they said that saved me, because it was true. Management was upset that they didn’t get to fire me. Now when they called me again they said I had over 100 lates, this is now when they changed the start time rules but didn’t even bother telling us hey this is the time you gotta come in now.

 

[JG3]

So....you in the union?

I was not anymore. Not many people know this but the union in our work area got money debt and ups pretty much got them by the balls.

If they don't write you up for being late, within 14 days, then it will not be considered, 2 absences in 6 rolling months here is a warning letter, 3,4,5,6 lead up to discharge.
So if they say you had "100 lates" then the first thing to do is assure them that 90 of them should not be discussed since you were not given proper notice. Then the last 14 days of lates can be individually discredited through failures to follow the applicable articles on posted start time, non-operable or unnecessarily slow-to-operate timecard systems or their inability to produce your electronic timecard.

Damn I wish I knew this stuff lol. Don’t get me wrong I know I’ve been late there’s time buses run late but over 100 lates nah.

 

[Poop Head]

You understand when I say that over 100 lates wasn’t true they kept marking people late when that isn’t the “real” start time

So did you volunteer for precharge and show up late?

 

[JG3]

That precharge stuff sounds like nonsense. If it is, get your job back with back pay and teabag those friend'ers.



The only people who ever did that when I was a preloader were volunteers. If my FT sup had been telling me to come in before the official start time involuntarily I would've told him to eat it.

If OP was legit late 100 times them yeah, he should GTFO. Lets the whole sort down.

I never let my sort aisle down I always did my job and kept the morale up. My sort aisle only had 3 good workers plus me. While the others let boxes fall and be lazy. That’s something I won’t miss working with lazy people who still keeps a job.

This goof came to work on building start time. While others came way later than me. But yeah thanks for your 2 cents goof. Also when you and your FT just don’t like each other they coming for you.

Been here 30 years and can count on one hand the amount of times I've been late. You lose your job over something you are in control of you get no sympathy

 

[JG3]

So did you volunteer for precharge and show up late?

No there’s never volunteering is just if you show up or not. If I knew this was happening I would have shown up for precharge. I was even there on time before precharge but i would just wait till my start time because I thought that’s how it went.

If someone were fired for this in my local, the labor manager would get laughed out of the room at the local hearing and they’d definitely be getting back pay for the time off.

So what's up? You gonna get your job back or what?

Don’t need your sympathy, you’re right I’m capable of controlling when a family is depress or when a family member is sick and need to be look after. People go thru stuff

Maybe you can’t read,how about you use your healthcare benefits for your eyes.

I got fired I don’t know if I can or who do I go talk to for that?

Time for you to beat it @Barney

@Turdferguson, have you ever let a supervisor (or customer) intimidate you?

 

[Box Ox]

So are you trying to make excuses for being late for real or sticking with the precharge story?
