Thank you! In this month of Thanksgiving, we
have many things going our way. But typically, we focus on the negative or challenges
we face. But before I tell you how good we are
doing (in context), I must still warn you of the
ills of postal management.
The postal management structure is rooted
in nepotism and straight-up a$& kissing. We all
know that. There are some good ones, but most
of their complement has changed over as well.
Remember that guy who had three accidents in
one month but was the nephew of a supervisor?
He probably is a postmaster now. Remember the
lady who always needed help on her route and
still brought back mail all the time? She prob
ably is a postmaster now. Oh, let’s not forget the
son of the postmaster who only carried mail for
four months and becomes a 204-B right away.
He/she becomes an ass right from the start.
The moral of the story is that they are re
verting to the only thing they know. When the
going gets tough, manage better? Hell to the
naw! The problem is our new members are not
used to how things used to be. Their skin is not
toughened. We want to make the rules instead
of following the rules. So, unless you have a
mother/father postmaster, you might want to
figure out the old-school mantra, “If you do
things their way you will make more money
and never get in trouble.”
Our membership has turned over drastically.
Over 60 percent of our brethren are 10 years
and under. Everyone is adjusting. But carriers
always adjust. It’s just something in us that
makes us special.
They are now starting inspections. We
should be thankful they didn’t do them the last
two years.
