"No." -GRIEVANCE FILED for something like working outside his prescribed job description.

Rediculous.
My father is in a Plumber's union, and has to work under those conditions. But don't believe that he likes it; it's just that sometimes such rules make things easier, and more streamlined. As unbelieveably stupid as it sounds to everybody. It minimizes everybody doing their own thing, getting in each others way and doing too much, or not enough work (think back to group-projects in school: the hard workers tend to get stuck with ALL the work, while others watch).

(I've never heard about the greivance thing, though )
