In a previous post I said ...

As of the recent yard inspections, I stand corrected. Violations were issued for dirty exteriors ... drivers will not be held accountable.

In fact, the total number of violations for both the odd and even inspection combined was 46. Of that only 2 will result in hearings for the drivers. I would say management is exhibiting a phenomenal amount of cooperation with our union reps and discretion as to which violations drivers will be answerable. (Even though, I might add, many of these violations were unfair for even the company to get.)

Kudos to all involved for bringing about this level of fairness ... at least to drivers ... to these out-of-control OPT violations. We do notice, and we do appreciate it.
