Don't know about that, but one day I was nearly hit by pieces from a UPS walkie-talkie while sitting in the break area.

I’ve never known anyone to do it on purpose. Plenty dropped accidentally or falling off bumpers. Lol.

Powerpads but never printers. Lol.
Ok both printers and power pads are fedex equipment- what was the outcome of a thrown power pad in front of a manager

I have no idea. Never known anyone dumb enough to do it in front of management. Maybe a letter?

Had a coworker punt a powerpad across the belt because it kept locking up, in front of a manager. Manager looked like he wanted to do something but ended up turning the other way. I couldn't believe it.

I imagine it would depend on how good of an employee you are. If you suck and they want to fire you anyway, buh bye. If you're otherwise excellent, a warning letter or stern talking to.

We need more information here... Probably depends on context;
A: tossing it into truck.. probably nothing.
B: tossing it to a coworker(who needs it)
C: tossing it AT a coworker who really needs it
D: throwing it down in anger <-could be considered an act of aggression
BTW be careful with any "ACT" that can be considered an "act of aggression"
I've seen a few folks battle for their jobs(some won, most lost) when a co-worker
decided they "felt threatened"
