It's managers like the aforementioned Dragon who's narcissistic attitude towards hourlies proves this company has lost touch with reality. I'm sorry Mr. Dragon,but it's me making this company the money through hard work,not you who's most likely running scared of your DM and feeling like issuing your warning letters as intimidation is actually accomplishing something. If a warning letter is warranted,then by all means,issue one. But you're dillusional if you honestly believe 90% of them hold any water. All those do is create animosity towards the company which is far more disruptive production wise then they're worth.
Personally,I received my first warning letter in 21 years and believe it was somewhat warranted,though it wasn't anything that a simple "hey,don't do that anymore,it's a safety issue" wouldn't have cured. But know what? Not only have I corrected my mistake,but I take my sweet ass time doing it. Productive warning letter....no. Costly warning letter....yes. For the company that is!
So next time you feel the urge to give out a worthless piece of paper to someone who works hard and doesn't get intimidated by your tactics,think twice ...and maybe,just maybe,there's a simpler and more effective way to treat your employee.
