Yes. You never know if it is justified until the actual hearing. One side can make anything sound justified.
I guess we are to believe that Dave, if charged with a crime, would roll over and plead guilty without a trial.
Hey, Dave!! The world is not just black and white.

Employee working the local sort is observed by two different supervisors tampering with a package containing video games. The two supervisors decide to let the employee finish his shift while they brief the shop steward on what has happened. All three are standing at the guard shack waiting for the employee to be cleared to leave. Employee realizes that he has been caught, hands the video games over to the supervisors and is promptly terminated for stealing.
Would you grieve this termination?

Correct me if I am wrong....
Aren't you one of the posters, that said the Union "owns" the grievance ?
And they can dispose of it, as they see fit ?
Help me out, Mug.
It's easy to review.... previous posts.

Yes I did, and they do.
The local did not have to process this untimely grievance once it became their grievance. It is their grievance to do with as they see fit, hopefully with the grievants best interest in mind.
They processed the grievance which means the company has to hear it.
Dig through my posts. This is exactly what I have said in the past.
The local could have told the employee that they will not hear his grievance because it was untimely. They made a choice to process it. Good for them.
Would you like me to give you the settled case number that states once a grievance is submitted to the union, it becomes the property of the union?
Any questions?
