I work at an org that has an IT union, its horrible.. in fact just today i saw a manager have grievances filed against her because she was asking developers to do work on improving this project she had just taken over. Then an argument ensued that union chief even said..you can't file a grievance for someone asking you to fill your 40 hours of work... now another battle is beginning.. and this is just one instance, I could list hundreds like this.. another good one.. grievance for being woken up to suddenly during slumber. i am not sure people would even believe the shit i've seen

Sounds pretty reasonable to me, if I'm not explicitly being paid to be on call work shouldn't be contacting me.

I assumed he meant being awoken too abruptly while sleeping on the job, but now I'm curious as to what the actual situation was.

When you have a complaint system, you'll inevitably have people filling dumb complaints, but why is that a problem?
