I was suspended pending termination for cashing in a coin star receipt that I found and cashed in. I was threatened by company security of being charged with grand larceny. It was for 51 dollars. I said I didn't think I did anything wrong besides using bad judgement. After I was suspended and was leaving the office the head of security said and we may still charge you with grand larceny. When I asked my union what I was suspended for he didn't no so I asked him to find out. He called me back and said for taking property of the company's that had there name on it and cashing it in. I said so am not being suspended for stealing. He said no they didn't say it was for theft. My question is what course of action do I have from here? My union rep says there going for termination, and I asked my rep what is his argument and he said am not sure ive only been doing this for 2 yrs. That made me feel great. I gave him a case of someone who took a copy of a coin star receipt and cashed it in and he wasn't fired and he was a bookkeeper. So my argument is why is the company looking to fire me when they didn't fire someone who did worse then me cashing something I found. I was found innocent of the last suspension for stealing Judge. But as you said to me before there's only so many times before my luck runs out. Am hoping to hear your insight Judge. Am only sorry it always has to be for the same things over and over. This is my 4th suspension in the past 4 yrs all the others came out the way they should of and that's me being returned to work. Any advice judge?
