[QUOTE="542thruNthru, post: 5323022, member: 48491"] Well we had a few different ones. We had two drivers that got in a fight after work on the street that was over a issue that had been building at work. They were in uniform and the one that got his butt kicked called the police which made it a whole other issue. Another was we had two drivers that had been taunting and harassing each other for weeks that decided to walk outside of work before they were punched in and went across the street. A passer by recorded it and because of that and because it originated on property they were fired. We also had threats being sent over txt between two drivers that was work related. It was brought to LP even though the txt were during the weekend. They were warned to stop. They then got in a fight weeks later and they were fired. From what ive seen it all comes down to liability and if it originates at work. The company will terminate you and it will be up to panel. Problem is the person that loses usually runs to the company instead of just taking the beating like a man and moving on. Members always want to get the company involved thinking they will take their side. The company doesn't take sides they just eliminate liability. [/QUOTE]
