Don't think you can blame this or any on the Union. Used to be only employers checked the NDR nat. Drivers Registry. It's the FAA now and perhaps they don't check it often enough.
At AA we had a CA fired for failing to declare two beers in Customs Immigration. On a random Xray screen exiting Customs he was stopped for not declaring 2 beers in his overnight bag. AA security was called and he was terminated.
AA FA's have been terminated for possession of company liquor and under the influence.
I was drug and alcohol tested just two trips ago. I get randomly tested about every 8 months.
Just throwing a little info out here. Yes, unions are supposed to try to help you get "Not fired" for all reasons.
If this CA had 12 prior "If" and they did not happen at work, how would the Union know?
Are you suggesting that Professional Standards division knew?
It is hard to interpret your question on the internet. Or if it is sarcastic.
