A bit like insurance..  You pay and you pay and you don't expect
to ever need it, but if you do, it's maybe nice to have them backing
you up..

The one time I got into a bit of a situation and the union Rep
attended the meeting it was a bit of a funny situation..

A soft drink truck driver had dropped a case of pop in my car
to thank me for coming into work an hour early on delivery
days because with the timing of things it let him finish his
last delivery of the day about 2 hours earlier..
And someone who didn't like me much, saw th drop off and
reported it to the manager.

They actually called in someone from head office to confront
me about this egregious crime and, in the end, I ended up
getting a 4 day suspension without pay for 'accepting a bribe'..

Meanwhile, during the meeting, the store manager was crapping
bricks because 2 days earlier I had loaded 15 cases of pop
from the same company into his car which they gave him when
he mentioned to the sales rep that he was having a big party
at his home..   But I didn't say anything..

After my 4 days off, I got called into the office again and
the manager told me he and the union had decided the suspension
without pay was a little extreme so they were removing it.
I said, "But I've already been off work!".. and he said not to
worry about it, I'd get paid for those days..    B)
