That doesn't mesh with what I understand is the practice today.

What year did your story occur in?

I don't believe that the foreman can just say your fired to a unionized worker these days. Unless the worker is committing felonies at the workplace, you have to build a case load incidents to justify the termination of any unionize worker.

Occasionally management will need to downsize the workforce but in that case you just look up your seniority number and the workers who have been there the longest stay and with the least seniority are laid off. Worker performance never enters into the decision.
