[QUOTE="Laynesplace, post: 1464609, member: 52780"] This is my first post, and a very frustrating issue. I work at the White Creek Pike hub in Nashville. While sorting this morning one of the guys working beside me was complaining about how hard sorting is and that he couldn't keep up. He wreaked of weed. He was late coming back from break and one of the managers told him, "Man, your odor is pretty stout and you are late from break." Guy replies, "Man I had to put my weed in my car. It was weighing me down" So not only was the guy smoking weed on his break, but carry it in his pocket. Why would they not fire this guy? He is slow and complains about how hard the work is, and obviously impaired while at work. He use to be an unloader and he complained so much they moved him to a sorter. Does anyone think this guy and others like him are a safety issue to himself and others? Previously the same manager said something to a guy about smelling like a brewery. Dude actually told the manager he had gotten drunk in the hub parking lot before coming to work. I understand there are many people at these hubs that drink and do drugs, but when a manager calls them out on it, and it is obvious they are impaired.....are we that desperate for workers that we need workers like these two guys. This has happened on numerous occasions. Looking forward to hearing replies. Thanks..... [/QUOTE]
