[QUOTE="10 point, post: 1502397, member: 52520"] Constructive criticism isn't about an hourly passing out warning letters. This mentality may be OK with you but not with most of the hourlies I work with. We had a driver who got fired THREE times for not wearing his seatbelt. They made him the safety co-chair (prior to ratification of this contract) and he was doing observations on other drivers and that really angered many drivers in our building. As soon as the TA was ratified he lost his cushy job as the center hypocritical safety mascot. Today he's a supe in another building. Good riddance. Either be hourly or be management. You can't be both. Giving constructive criticism is one thing but you should not be a new employee and 22-3 classified workers, unless they're driving as part of their job or was a veteran driver, should not be criticising drivers on driving issues, that's my opinion. You can always bring up issues in the pcm as a safety tip the day after you witnesssed an unsafe act without mentioning names. Helpful hints are a good way to go (just in case you're allergic to crow) because none of us are perfect. Omit criticism. Keep your friends. [/QUOTE]
