[QUOTE="804brown, post: 1301184, member: 29553"] The original driver was fired and walked out for allegedly changing his own start time. Even if this is true this is not stealing time. He was working. According to Reyes himself, he told his manager about a less senior driver starting before him and his manager said to start up early. It seems now the manager is denying that occurred. So they once again disregard our contract and walk this very senior driver (26 yrs), a former military man himself, for a non cardinal sin. According to our supplement, strikes are illegal "[B]so long as the Company abides by the procedure prescribed for the settlement of disputes and differences and the decisions of the arbitrators as provided in this agreement." [/B] The way I see it, UPS did not abide by that procedure. Of course, it most cases UPS gets away with it. But Liam seemed to want to make a stand on this. He knew that Dave had jumped the gun a bit in Melville. But Liam waited for them to actually walk him out on that bogus charge and he made his move. An arbitrator will see this and re-instate reyes as well as the 248 other drivers. [/QUOTE]
