with this being the "NEW UPS" I wouldnt even pass gas or breath in the wrong direction! after this week i have learned that not only will UPS spend $100,000 in legal fee's to save $10 ( not exact amounts only to prove a point) But they have gone to an all time low in the eyes of many! Be extra carefull out there guys your days are numbered in their eyes!

Probably me. I have no integrity, ya know.is that directed at me?
If the company documents it through progressive discipline It will happen. I've seen it personally at panel. They keep writing you up for methods violations and failing to follow instructions. Most of these were things that I've seen first hand and most were resolved locally.How on earth can someone get fired for a misload?
Did they write rebuttals?If the company documents it through progressive discipline It will happen. I've seen it personally at panel.

We are talking part-timers. They don't care most of them. Most of my full timers won't write rebuttals. Asking a part timer to do anything is real hard. If the case I'm talking about would have done it he would still be there today but these guys know it all. Until the panel gives there final and binding decision.Did they write rebuttals?
This and the fact they negotiate our contract alone is why I and others I'm close to pay our dues in Ga(RTW state). I tell other hourlies the same thing and that it's like I always have a Matlock on retainer and they have Joe Public Defender.There is a BIG difference between getting fired at UPS and staying fired at UPS. Just thank your lucky stars you have a Union job and to those who don't join - shame on you ( I wouldn't want to have to rely on Union representation just because they "have to "). I know the Union isn't always pefect but when it comes down to it its all you have when the chips are down and you are in a bind.
