On April 23rd, my Union Rep and I met with Ass't Manager Mark Poulson to discuss a pre filling grievance I filed as a result of the disparaging treatment I received after an INCIDENT late on March 9th into early March 10th. I am challenging Trimet's right to inadvertently make accusations against me, not tell me what they are, charge me with insubordination, put me on Administrative Leave, clear me back to work while the investigation is still on going then expect me to Operate a Bus down the streets of Portland, UNFOCUSED!
IF THIS BANNER IS FACTUAL, THEY AREN'T WALKING THEIR TALK!!!
Poulson was the investigator who put me on Administrative Leave as a result of Supvisor Myles Vaylon's charge of insubordination. As a result, his participation in the initial investigation created a CONFLICT OF INTEREST for the grievance hearing as it prevents him from appearing as a 'disinterested third party investigator'. Consequently, we re-scheduled the pre-filing with another manager. During the meeting with Poulson however, he was able confirm that he spoke with MY witnesses and they confirmed that I had NOT acted inappropriately at any point, that I had NOT raised my voice to the Supervisor and that it was in fact the Supervisors behavior against me which caused their concern. In other words, Poulson confirmed that I had in fact told the truth. Why wouldn't I?!!!
