I agree w/ you FP -- not a fan of litigation. However, in this case, it's the best option. In spite of UPS being one of the "world's most ethical companies" the only thing they understand is relieving them of some of their wealth. It's the only way they'll make sure this never happens again. IMHO

I honestly would demand that he be fired vs. getting money. If they didn't fire the schmuck, I'd go after money.

He did. Talked to the union president first though. A LOT to that story that shouldn't be communicated though.

If the facts resemble the above even closely, he should indeed lose his job. UPS would never tolerate a line pilot acting in a similar fashion.

There are many things that UPS wouldn't tolerate a line pilot doing, but they (UPS) do them everyday! Like...lie, cheat, steal...
