Union’s attempt to dissuade employer from terminating employee and providing representation at pre-termination hearing met its duty of fair representation. Union’s decision not to represent employee at termination hearing was not arbitrary, discriminatory, or in bad faith where union reviewed employee’s employment history and concluded that its changes for success were minimal.
