WOW!!! You are really allowing "O" to get under your skin. This stress can make you unhealthy. Sit back and relax, good things come to thos who wait.webidiot said:0 tolerance 0 freight 0 work 0 management your right this place is a 0
:Cow-Pie: :Cow-Pie: :Cow-Pie: :hugnlug said:Today I heard that we now have in place a 0 tolerance operation for the dock. Everything must be inked. Failure to do so is a write up. Also if you get caught damaging anything its a write up. My question is that you load a piece of freight onto a city trailer free and clear of damage. Then you put your name as the loader on the loading manifest. Next along comes someone else and wipes out your skid. That person doesn't say anything and leaves. Guess who do they zing for the damage? You might want to have a steward with you.

I will not get the boot as I do my job and am a valued employee probably as much as any of you. The union does not protect me from getting fired for cause it only protects me from wrongful termination. I expect and do get paid for breakdowns, all work time including road closures, weather and accidents. I expect and do get paid for standing around while some idiot dispatcher takes 3 hours to get his act together. I am not required to work the dock so UPSFreight can fulfill its want to be version of conway. You need to think for yourself about the union, if it is not for you, I really don't care if you are a member or not. The teamsters is a brotherhood for the benefits of ourselves and our families. We are particular who our brothers and sisters are.....maybe you do not have the stuff it take to work at a union barn or be a member of the brotherhood.
