No lawyer, no justice.

I'm sure there are plenty of lawyers willing to take his money.

You misread me, I wasn’t argueing with you , that’s just a line to throw out from a lawyers point of view ! I agree he should of stood up and fought

Actually I was just wondering if they ever rehire with old rehire date if that makes sense.

 

[DLK]

Thanks for the input.

UPS agrees to $2 million settlement in disability discrimination lawsuit

Big deal, 20 grand per person? I wonder if the lawyers get some of that off the top?

When all is said and done, that's @MyTripisCut's Orlando cash and bar tab.

Wasn’t able to meet their deadline date for coming back to work. They informed me that I had until the 26th of October to return or I would no longer have a job. At that time I wasn’t physically ready.

Lawyer immediately. Get a good one that deals specially with this issue. Did you file grievance?

 

[john chesney]

No I didn’t do anything. Didn’t have the fight in me was just trying to get healthy. Hindsight is 20/20

Now you have your lawyer prove hopefully prove you were not mentally or physically capable of fighting discharge at that time. You will need documentation from dr or psychiatrist

In October 2017 I was let go due to being off a year on medical leave and not returning. Worked for UPS for 11 years. Anyone ever heard of being rehired with the same seniority/benefits/retirement etc you left with?

No.

You would be lucky to even be hired back.

Leaving the company with a known medical condition, is a big liability.

He didn't exhaust all other options he didn't want to fight at the time, a lawyer at this point seems like a waste of money.

His ship has sailed at this point.


Being it's a Union job, the first thing a lawyer is going to want to see.... is that he

complied with all the dispute resolution processes outlined in the contract.


Filed a grievance, filed an appeal to the denial of long term disability, and

requested an ADA accommodation. And then, filed another grievance if denied.


All of this could have been avoided, by calling the Local Union.


Can't make it to the Union hall ?

I'll come to you.

[el blanco]

did anyone else notice that that the block of time during which he didn't challenge his dismissal,
included several major holidays, and all of peak?


coincidence? perhaps...

 

[BigUnionGuy]

Sounds more like clinical depression.

Not following up on anything.

 

[DLK]

Just so everyone is clear I was not union. Sorry if I’m posting in the wrong forum. Believe me I wasn’t trying to get out of work. I worked 10+ years without any issues. Just seeing if anyone knew of someone being brought back with their original hire date.

 

[BigUnionGuy]

Just so everyone is clear I was not union.

You wouldn't have gotten any sympathy.... if that was known earlier.

Just seeing if anyone knew of someone being brought back with their original hire date.

Ask that question in the "Partners" forum.




Best thing to come out of this thread ?

Heads up, for the Union members.

[DLK]

Honestly I thought this was for all UPSERS. Don’t worry I won’t be posting again.

 

[BigUnionGuy]

Post all you want. Just be honest....

 

[DLK]

I was being honest. I had no idea there were forums for union and non union. What part did you think I was lying about?
