Told by safety lady to pick a "snake" up off the floor and throw it out

[UnionStrong]

Breaking or otherwise disposing of hub snakes is in their own official training and methods documents.
I'm sure we are all aware that nobody ever gets through training correctly but what was your immediate safety concern picking up a hub snake? none? then why argue?

They may be venomous?

See! See! Can’t be trusted, they’re masters at disguise. Maybe they evolved to look like nylon straps.

Picking up straps off the floor is the easiest money you’re gonna make all day. And you’re creating a safer work environment. You should be looking for those opportunities.

Tell them you weren’t wearing proper hand protection and didn’t want to cut your hand.

So many possible excuses you could have given. You can’t just say “no,” bra. You have to beat them at their own game. Gotta learn to play it. Not saying it’s necessarily gonna be a huge deal for you but it potentially could have been a big headache for your stew. “Work as directed” is a big thing here, you gotta tread that line carefully

 

[DELACROIX]

Did she say "Please" before the directive?

 

[allahuakbar]

How it really went.
Sup:
“Hey bud you think you could pick that strap”
Internet Cry baby:
“Sure thing”

I always take great pleasure in picking up and strangling hub snakes before throwing them in the trash.

Should have told her you had a snake she could grab.

Damn it, you beat me to it...

 

[UnionStrong]

Damn it, you beat me to it...

Yeah that’s pretty much the winner

Pretty sure contract says no driver is to do janitorial work.

Also it says management will treat drivers with respect and dignity.

Look...

Guy isn't coming back in here.

Thread needs new topic.

You shouldn't have to be told to do the right thing.
Clean up around you & take pride in your job.

Leaving a place better than you found it -- without being told to -- reveals your true character.

What supplement ?

Any time a driver has a drunk driving conviction they go into Porters until they get their license back.

The "safety lady" is still a supervisor as far as I know. Supervisors direct your work. Picking up one of those straps isn't unsafe so you need to do it when told to. Even if it's annoying. CYA and WAD. Cover your ass and work as directed.

What supplement ?

Just checked turns out thats a western region supplement thing. Article 3.

I knew I read it somewhere but couldnt recall exactly where
