In my building the PT Union steward, instead of filing on sups working, would just have the manager add time to his time card.
What happens to management when we file grievances?

I'm sort of new at the Louisville hub, nonunion--and although my office (which is all admin/management, all non-union) is really cool with all of our union folks, I have heard that grievances in the past caused the upper management where I'm at to have their yearly raises taken away. Seems weird that they have grievances at all because our little group gets along really well, but I guess its a thing.

All the more reason to file even more.

I actually felt sort of bad to hear the guy lost his raise, because the grievance had nothing to do with the guy himself. It was actually the result of someone else screwing something up, and the fallout from it sort of fell on him (department manager). The other FT sups also lost their raises, just sort of as default I think.
They all seem like alright people, and they most certainly know their stuff (its a high skill specialized area they work in) and have been with UPS for a longggg time. It's a small department in a huge hub though, so I'm sure there's for sure management somewhere out there that well deserves some grief...but these guys are alright.
edit - my spelling sucks horribly.

I'm new, I saw a kid not even out of his 30 days yet filing grievances. He had some balls I suppose, R.I.P... Filing grievances just seems to make you have to work harder, facing the political side of things. I'd rather just bust my ass and keep the management happy, than worry about them out on my route harassing me all the damn time.

Just what they are looking for. Just wait until they keep adding more work on you. Just keep your mouth shut and do what they say. Grow a pair your in A UNION for a reason. You need your on paper trail because they have there own on you. And its not to give you a pat on the back. Wake up KID.
Go ahead and destroy your body for those managers who will be gone in a few years; that way you can keep working yourself to death for the next set of management that comes in
I bet that's how they feel about our holiday turkey...

I files one a week after my 30.
Here's my thoughts: I don't give a flying 
what happens to management when I file a grievance. If they did their job properly and abide by the contract then I wouldn't have to file. I imagine most people who don't file are the ones who aren't doing the job by the methods and are fearful of the scrutiny.

I'm always done before 9.5 3-4 days a week as a swinger so it probably won't matter anyway.
9.5 goes away November 1st but they said I'll have 2-3 months opted in starting in mid-January.
