Individual, although paid at a supervisory pay level and substituted for the supervisor when the supervisor was absent, was determined to share a community of interest with unit employees and thus could not be excluded from the negotiating unit without evidence that the individual performed supervisory duties such as assigning work and overtime to employees, evaluating employees, approving leave requests, disciplining workers, or other supervisory duties.
