Question:

Gonzales worked in the meat department of Groceries-R-Us, and also served as a union steward at the store. When he learned that he had been scheduled to work on Saturdays, Gonzales confronted his supervisor. During this confrontation, Gonzales angrily threw his meat hook over his shoulder, narrowly missing an employee. He also threw a 40-

pound piece of meat into a saw (breaking its blade), threw his knife into a box, threatened his supervisor, and refused to follow the store manager’s order to leave the store. The employer terminated Gonzales, based on his threatening and violent behavior.

Gonzales filed a complaint with the NLRB alleging that he was subjected to a more severe disciplinary penalty because he was a union steward. How should the NLRB rule on his complaint? Explain.
