[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 379232, member: 14596"] You are correct that management personnel are held to a higher standard (although not so much about the bigger check). That is as it should be. However, refraining from violence, no matter the provocation, is a standard we are ALL held to. In this case, it does not matter that he was an hourly who felt bullied by management. Becoming violent was not an option for him. I also am not sure I understand your support of his wish to leave early from his shift. If I understand this correctly, he was not a senior employee, so if he said he had some personal stuff to take care of, and the supervisor let him take off early, what happens when a more senior employee sees this and would have liked to have been given the option to leave first? Would that employee then have a viable grievance? Could just be a local practice thing but I sat in a meeting with a steward, BA, part time hourly and part time sup in which the hourly was ticked because the part time sup was allowing a college kid with less seniority leave early to attend classes.
