Preloader got fired for beating up a vending machine that stole his money.
I have to agree with @olroadbeech here. During my time I think most everyone in my center was fired at least once (myself include) and they all got their job back except the feeder driver who was stopping in a gravel pit to hook up with a ministers wife every night and thought he could get away with it. He didn't fight it--lost his job and his wife over that one. He was a loser anyway. Our union steward was fired 4 times. UPS used firing someone as just another harassment technique.if you havent been fired from UPS you aint.
it was a joke at our hub. they fired everyone they could for anything and almost everyone got their jobs back.
one guy didnt. came to work drunk
another got caught sleeping while his IVIS said he was on TA
one other for stealing boxes with guns in them.
can only think of those 3 over 20 plus years and at least dozens of attempts.
I did that for probably 2 years. I wasn't making up miles it was actually caused by a wrong odometer gear in a transmission that was put in my truck. It gave me an extra free 10-12 miles a day. That was about the only time I ever came close to making scratch on a regular basic for any length of time.Driver got fired for padding miles. He wasn't actually putting miles on his package car though, he was just putting extra miles in his DIAD every day. I don't know how they ever caught him.
I had a package car that was doing the same thing, took a day off and the cover driver wrote up the odometer. I coulda shot that guy.I did that for probably 2 years.

I only had one guy who would cover my route and he and I were drinking / fishing buddies so all was cool when I went on vaca during those times.I had a package car that was doing the same thing, took a day off and the cover driver wrote up the odometer. I coulda shot that guy.
All good things must come to an end they say. My good luck came to an end when a sup rode with me and noticed the odometer wasn't agreeing with the mile marker signs on the highway. I played dumb and said I had never noticedI had a package car that was doing the same thing, took a day off and the cover driver wrote up the odometer. I coulda shot that guy.

Thanks Rod. appreciate it. Ya, I think you hit it on the head . harassment technique. never understood that and they wondered why most of us didnt have respect for management. they didnt like that we made more money than them I guess and we didnt have to take the verbal abuse that they took in closed management sessions.I have to agree with @olroadbeech here.
