>>WOULD OF BEEN TAKEN AWAY. SO THE SUPERVISOR CALLED TO
>>THE SUPERINTENDENT TO COME. THE SUPERINTENDENT CAME
>>AND TOLD THE CONDUCTOR TO SIGN ANOTHER DOCUMENT HE
>>STILL REFUSED. SO THE SUPERINTENDENT SAID THAT THE CONDUCTOR WAS THEATENING THE SUPERVISOR. THEY WROTE HIM UP AND SENT HIM TO NASTY LABOR RELATIONS TO BE FIRED.
