[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 5471412, member: 32249"] "Works as directed" is a very commonly used term management uses against hourlies for anything not covered in the contract, or for something that IS covered, but they choose to disregard in the moment. I heard it for decades, it's nothing new. This is the first time I've heard of it being used towards a TSG tech or other management. Probably happens more than we know, but they just grin and bear it. In our case a grievance is our recourse. In your case, without a union, I think "work as directed" is pretty much a :poop: sandwich which you are forced to swallow. I wish all the people that post on BC just how useless they think having a union is or that they don't want to pay dues were reading your post and seeing just how management would run rough shod absent a union.
