Yes, as in the case in Michigan several years ago which resulted in the killing of a postal supervisor, who as part of the harassment of employees, when a postal employee would go to the bathroom, this supervisor would send someone into the bathroom, and go into a stall next to the postal employee, and look over the stall to make the postal employee was actually taking a crap! This same supervisor who was killed was involved with another postal manager who owned a storage building where the USPS would send undeliverable parcels. These two managers, instead of disposing of the the undeliverable parcels were selling the contents for their own private gain. The postal employee who eventually killed this supervisor said what he did was the same as jumping on a grenade in war to save others. How sad.
It’s real , the abuse is so bad . People don’t know how hard postal workers work . The people who should be fired are moved to management. The more awful a person you are , the higher the management ladder you go . 20 years of HELL . Would never recommend that anybody go to work at USPS.
@@paulstough2995recently had a shooting in Memphis TN. Yelling and humiliating workers on the floor, made a carrier assistant "snap". After the OIG investigation, the union went after the toxic work environment. Three sups (including the DM) were out via arbitration
I was a carrier for 18 months in Denver and resigned in 2020. The usps is one of the most corrupt institutions I have ever seen. Too many people up top getting paid big while cracking the whip on the front lines to work harder with little to NO days off and now they even deliver on Sundays. Management abuses power and is deceitful especially if you don't know the rules. I learned a lot working at usps and grew a lot and am thankful for the experience because now I truly know the meaning of hard work. There's far more to life then just working 6 to 7 days a week.
I worked from nov 22 to May 23 as a rural carrier….the worst employer I have ever worked for on a federal level in manalapan New Jersey. Worst fucking asshole managers I have ever had
Which is exactly why the people doing the work need to know their contractual rights. As long as you know your rights and do your job properly manglement can do nothing
As a former transitional employee at USPS Casual for two years. The USPS MADE my life a living hell. The management was very abusive delivery the messages across to most employees. And the tone, body language was horrible. Working on the LSM, Flat order, working as Mail handler in numerous departments was a challenge. However, the pay was excellent. Moreover, the mental abuse, bullying, power struggles the management was very uncomfortable, unethical. In addition, I told a manager that this will be reported, he told he will fire me. I replied Back, and said if you fire me, I get paid more per week from unemployment than wasting gas driving back and forth to work, save on breakfast and lunch. It was reported, and the manager gotten fired.
USPS is horrible. They don’t treat everyone equal. They have favorites and allow other people to do what they want to do. As a new hire they bully us. I have also complained to management about 4 days of missing pay. They have not done anything about that. It’s so unfair and someone needs to wipe these toxic managers out.
I'm a postal employee of 29 years and I am thankful to say that i work at a great office where management believes in a positive workroom atmosphere. Unfortunately in my past, I have dealed with these type of bully supervisors and history shows that those are the ones who get promoted to the higher paying jobs in management quicker. My belief is that nothing's gonna change at these offices in the Denver area. As for the unions, they're worthless. Years ago it was about "fighting tooth and nail for you" and now it's about "hey....let's all just get along". What many also don't realize is that those same bullies in management are either those who have never delivered a piece of mail in their life or who did but got out of it because they couldn't handle the job.
@@PeaceandLukeI agree with you. The union in your area should be reported to the national labor relations board. Postal service is full of uneducated idiots🎸
Right, and it's a conflict of interest, what company has its own union, paying their own employees to represent union members paying monthly $60 union dues, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation? Usps union is complicit with Usps management, discriminating and retaliating against injured on duty disabled employees! See: McConnell vs Usps, Pittman vs Usps, Glover vs Usps, and for the past 5 years, Usps paid out $5,631,795. for sexual harassment.
Was an RCA for 6 months. Loved my office, supervisors and coworkers but the schedule was too much for my marriage and a year old daughter. I was on time and never called out, a good employee but there's more to life than working 13 10 hour days straight and having 1 random weekday off every other week.
Yes, and when word gets out about how Usps union is complicit with management, discriminating and retaliating against injured on duty disabled employees, see McConnell vs Usps,, Pittman vs Usps, Glover vs Usps, and many, many, many more for decades!!!
Why pay monthly $60 union dues, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation?!!!
If you ever heard the phrase, going postal, it comes from when postal workers would kill their supervisors because of how they were treated. We might actually see this come back.
As current employee, this is by far the worst place to work, they can’t keep their employees, because management is abusive, and they treated me like trash

This is trickling from the top, in efforts to bring down the service and privatize it. People with deep pockets are salivating at the earnings they'd have when they succeed at their sabotage. Louis DeJoyless needs fired. One requirement to ever be PMG is that you had to carry the mail at some point in your career. DeJoyless never held a postal job. That's a good starting point. Plus, I'd like an investigation into his XPO family business that I'm told received the largest contract with USPS. If that's true, his Amazon stocks, which he increased after being appointed PMG rather than get rid of due to the conflict of interest, is another violation. He was appointed PMG after a $650,000 donation to the RNC. I want him thoroughly investigated.
The Post office needs to change its ways, policies, etc. Management is horrible they degrade their workers they over work their people. My short time with the post office before deciding to walk out and refusing to be apart of such a toxic environment, I have seen management cursing at their workers using their power to intimidate people as we’ll as forcing people to work in such a unsafe environment. I saw so many people walking out in such a short period of time that this just tells you the usps Needs to revamp and restructure their company and how they operate as well as who they have managing their branches!!!! What the post office needs to realize is that if they continue the route they are going eventually they will not have the man power to deliver mail which has been an ongoing issue for years. Customers are not happy with the services of the usps and they have the right not to be!!!Usps is not delivering mail on a daily basis instead they are holding onto mail at the branch because they don’t have the man power to deliver. that’s why people are not getting their mail in time and most customers complain that their mail is being delivered to the wrong address or lost in transit and the reason for this is because postal workers are being forced to work in such a fast pace environment and rush rather than getting the job done properly. If employees/union get together and take a stand maybe 🤔 some changes will come in the near future. Also the biggest red flag is the contract that is currently in place. Workers on not being compensated properly as postal employees which means the union needs to fight for a better contract where employees start with a better base salary that accounts for all the work they do as well as flexibility where employees are entitled to at least 2 days off a week. What USPS does not realize is that To keep people you need to treat them right, be flexible, and pay them properly!!!!!!

Thing is they’re learning we’re not so replaceable. Staff issues is the major problem. Majority of carriers love their job but management is beyond complacent in making hiring changes, getting competitive, and are more than happy with abusing their current work force. So when one or more quits, that’s thrown onto others still staying. If striking was allowed, it would’ve been done already. Instead if we strike were immediately fired.

Finall I hope the abuse will come out. Moral is one of the major problems with the PO. Years ago when I was a carrier I called in to explain that my wife was having gallbladder surgery and I wouldn’t be in. My supervisor asked if I was the one doing the surgery. From that day on I said “fuck the PO.”

My aunt told me something years ago about companies that I never forget. She said if she had to call in for work because one of her kids her sick, she would always say she was the one who was sick. Now of course if it's a family member and it's an ongoing condition then get FMLA
The problem is a lack of management skills and experience that it trickles down from person to person. They come right off the street into those positions. I been there almost a year. My job before that I was on it for 25yrs with the last 8yrs as a supervisor. I have NEVER seen a organization ran like the post office. I got hurt and they don’t want to pay me. I went two months without pay and I’m still fighting to get my money. Another thing, I have never heard of a place hiring a person and they are NOT a regular employee. And they waste more money on gas and overtime delivering packages on Sundays. It don’t knock a dent in Mondays parcels.
They will spend a million dollars to keep from losing a fight for 300.00. I was warned about this before I went to work there. They will harass you now. Get a lawyer
This is the way it has been for ages. I've been with them for 16 years and it's always been the same old song and dance. Everything Amazon employees are making National news about is what every delivery service has been coping with for decades.
No it hasn't it has gotten loads worse in the last 2 years. 6 months BEFORE covid! Ueed to be make sure you make it back by 6pm now it is 8pm. The hiring freeze screwed them over and over worked ccas with retention less then 50% . Now their is a 2 tier pay scale wtf how and why? Sounds more and more like Kellogs

Yes this is true, checking hours after a long day's work has become a habit because they like to mess with ur pay, they talk down to u, crawl around at our feet, pop up on our routs even on their days off, issue discipline following their instructions, then chase u around the office trying to illicit a negative response, most of the time you will only have 2 options leave work and miss a day of pay or be falsely accused of threatening your supervisor to protect yourself your only option is to file an eeo complaint claiming discrimination, or sexaul harassment which is difficult to prove which is one of the many reasons why the post office is having trouble finding workers that last
As a former usps employee I can definitely say I witnessed and were a victim of this, management thinks they are invincible because postmasters let this stuff continues with no disciplinary action
Wow in the postal service will pay millions to hire a gang of lawyers instead of investigating management. Employees pay the price over and over not management ever.
This is my 3rd day as an MHA (Mail Handler Assistant) in a distribution center. Twice now they've broken California labor laws sending me to lunch 2 hours past the legal time. I've honestly never worked for a company where this seems to be a frequent occurrence with not just me, but other employees in my work station.
I've been a PSE Clerk for about 4 months and work distribution in Georgia. I was told on my first day when taking a tour with my other new co-workers what time we started work. During the tour, I said so we work from 3 am to 11:30 am with a half-hour lunch? Everyone looked at me... the supervisor said no. I said we work until noon or longer with an hour's lunch?? The supervisor looked puzzled and again said no. So I said I'm confused, lunch is paid for by the post office during our shift? She said you work eight hours from 3 am until 11 am and go home. Even though I've been living in Georgia for the past three years, this is my first time working in this state. I'm from Illinois and I was working from home for a company in Illinois when I moved to Georgia. In Illinois, they drill in you that you must take at least a 20-minute lunch if you work longer than 6 hours. I thought it was against the law not to give people a lunch break if they worked longer than 6 hours. After talking to a co-worker, he said it is not a law that employers are required to give their employees a lunch break in Georgia. I find this to be absurd! After looking into it I found out that it is a state law for some states but not all and Illinois is on the list of states that it is required to give employees a lunch break when working more than 6 hours. I also read the USPS contract and even though it is not a state law that employees are required to be offered a meal break, it is a COMPANY POLICY. You also get two 15-minute breaks when working an 8-hour shift. 5 minutes to wash up and 10 minutes for your break. A week or two later the supervisor told all the PSEs we have to take lunch if we were working 8 hours or more. For a short time, they had us working 10 hours a day with a 2-hour lunch break. We all put up a fuss about that and they stopped doing it but cut our hours to 6 hours a day and we work 6 days a week. The management in our office does a lot of underhanded childish things and they need to be investigated. The union reps are useless because they're friends with management.
It should be treated as a service and NOT a business, that's one of the largest mistakes management has going. Too much "lean - min/max everything for the sake of making $$$" ... and not enough "treat employees and customers like human beings"... I've had a Manager (within the past month) tell me they routinely get yelled at by higher-ups from them in the district over s*** as minuscule as carriers going 2 units... I mean, that's the definition of asinine. Also ... simply put... You cannot live (comfortably with any sort of family)... on a standard postal wage in most major cities. It hasn't remained competitive enough to lure people to do the job with the pay, sadly. Worst part is long term: for every 3-4 new hires we get, we are lucky if 1-2 of them stick around. In the meantime, we have 2-4 people retiring every year. The math isn't adding up to staffing being maintained adequately.
I left the post office after 3 years of employment. I loved my job, loved my customers. I still consider many of them family. But management drove me to leave. They treated me like absolute shit. Constantly insulted me, both professionally and personally, constantly stole my money (by illegally manipulating my clock in clock out times), forced me to work off the clock with threat of discipline if I didn't. Hell, my post master even tried to make me homeless. I worked for 7 months straight with not even a single day off (no weekends, no weedays), 8am to about 2am every day. I loved the post office, and I loved my job... but I would never go back.
Amen l say to you ,all these people speak the truth. The USPS needs total overhaul of management from the lowest substitute supervisors to the PM General himself. First of all mass-fire all their asses then only hire back the few that would pass very strict psychological screening. And re-screen them annually. They slip up they're GONE. You hit the nail right in the head. Harrassment intimidation bullying is rampant. Yet these bad managers keep on doing it with impunity , because they know nothing will be done about it. Management is constantly bitching that the carriers want more money, more money but they overlook the obvious --QUIT TREATING THE CARRIERS LIKE SHIT AND START TREATING THEM LIKE HUMAN BEINGS AND THE PROBLEM WOULD SOLVE ITSELF !!!!!! I COULD GO on and on ..... Glad l retired, my nerves were SHOT, but l still feel sorry for all my co-workers that I left behind, A eat knows when to desert a sinking ship 🚢..
Our old Postmaster was convicted of theft of Postal Funds. Unfortunately for us he was rehired. His brother was Postmaster of the Sectional Facility. His felonious brother would pull a knife and threaten his carriers. I believe the Postal Management team needs to be scrutinized from the top down.
Management is the problem and the postal service has their lawyers to protect them exactly why management doesn’t care what they do to workers. They are always covered.

Looking back on a 31 year career with retirement looming on the horizon. I can see how attrition is really coming to play mainly where retirement is concerned. Also, Denver was not excempt from Covid19 in which my unit was impacted rather adversely. So with all the reports that are out about the Postal Service. May one please know that, there is someone that works for the Postal Service that knows how important ones medicine is. There is someone that also wants your Grandchildren to receive their celebratory cards. There is someone trying to fill every truck to your Zip Code with every bit of available mail for an on-time departure. There is someone waiting to receive your mail from your loved one or out of state business for processing. So until retirement happens and speaking for myself. This is what you can expect from me America. To see that you get your mail! I love you America and it is a privilege to serve you!
Heard denver and boulder area is a cluster. People being forced 10-12hrs every day and also being forced in on their day off CONSTANTLY is pathetic and not safe. Something needs to be done so the NALC contract will be respected.
Working in the US is the same everywhere. The culture of toxic supervisors, mental and emotional abuse and disrespect goes across all pay grades and professions. For example I was a teacher, my friends are nurses and my MIL was a mail carrier.
Local postmaster and mgmt are bullies in a small rural Sw Va area. Flounced in bc of her skin color, she plays god daily. Manipulating accounts after personally going into them each morning and never delivering packages. Complaint system GOES RIGHT BACK INTO SAID BULLIES HANDS EVERY TIME. Giving her more power to hold mail, re route packages, delay and NEVER deliver. Multiple complaints to Customer Service, then to OIG office and if you as the bullied complaintant dont do the leg work, spend the money for copues and delivery cert. Then your complaint NEVER gets acknowledged

Our postmaster makes fun of everyone, calls them all dumb. Said Covid didn’t exist, laughed and giggled at anyone wearing a mask. Wouldn’t order cleaning products, soap, paper towels, bleach, nothing. Said she couldn’t order it. Gets mad when the LLV won’t start, won’t get our keys so we can check our LLV, so we find out at 11am it won’t run. Let’s the clerks take over the office, they wouldn’t let us get our packages sometimes until noon to even work on them. Sound like a nice place?
We need the news more involved in this story, nation wide. The explosion of information and bullying and bad mouth by management in this federal institution is going to have more negative resolution if nothing is done soon!!!!!! Help!!!!! I’m keeping a copy of this message if there nothing done by the government!!!! We need help!!!!!!!
At main postal center in Jackson Mississippi, Management refused to order workers to securely wrap box containing a child’s bike for delivery for weeks, in order to force a worker on lifting restrictions to lift and re-wrap the box.
I do not doubt abuse and bullying in the least. But the issue lies in staffing, expected productivity, and uncompetitive wages in HCOL areas. And this guy prolly resigned because he was forced to after talking to the media. Big no no mr.
Why pay monthly $60 union dues,, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation?!!!
That’s every single postal. honestly I’m surprised the post office is open. I can definitely see the post office just crumbling within itself because it does not know how to sustain a positive strong workforce instead a primarily focuses on fear and power.
As a note from the public...God help us with the credit card bills. If a person mails in the check on time; but the post office is late with delivery, you know what those credit card companies will do to you.

I’d love to interview her and incorporate her story with mine. I recently quit due to the bully, harassment and overload of work. Please, let me know if you are serious. I am considering my legal recourse.?
I’ve been told get the f’in out of my office. There’s always miss communication and signals in the office. It doesn’t help when you’re outside working.
Was abused and bullied by senior usps workers…I lucked up with strict but professional supervisors and postmasters…a worker actually told me if I tell remember snitches get stitches my life was threatened and nothing was done after I repeatedly reported the harassment and threats to my life
Management are bullies at USPS. I gave up my life working long hours for them as a CCA. Two supervisors provided misinformation to me on a route when I literally had only carried mail for a couple weeks on my own and said "it's mostly drive-offs" then complained when I was doing bad times on the route. Then when the disgruntled Postmaster finally trained me on how to run the route correctly, explained where the walking relays are and gave me park points I began running good times on the route immediately. He made sure to threaten to fire me first though and say "you're not going to get training on every route." Then when I called the union guy about that incident I feel they targeted me for retaliation. They had me running a full route in a depressed part of town where they absurdly claim you could do ten spread out walking relays and two drive-off sections on four side streets that are away from the rest of the route in 4 1/2 or 5 hours, which was an absurdly unrealistic time frame. The best time I did on it was 7 1/2 hours on a light mail day! I don't see how anyone could finish the route in 5 or 6 hours without literally sprinting from house to house putting their health at risk! Management is notorious for overworking employees. Especially newbies and expecting you to run your routes in unrealistic time frames set by upper management who never deliver a piece of mail! The union seemed pretty weak at my location. Management plays favorites, communicates very poorly and they are bullies! They fire the people they don't like and don't give people a chance to learn the job.
They have certain machines they put you on when they want to force you out. They refused to train me on the tow motor,;I past and even corrected the test
The problem is there is no standard on becoming a supervisor. Management promotes non career employee such as psc and mhas to 204b because us senior employees don't want to go into management because it Is all nepotism. Managers get promoted into higher positions because they kiss ass not because they are good at there job. Hell in my plant supervisor don't even know what a supervisor handbook is nor are they knowledgeable in the elm. This is what ur politicians want they want chaos in the postal system so they can privatize it and get unions out and pay people half of what postal employees make. Wake up this is done intentionally
Management treat employees especially CCAs like 'whores'. CCAs never know what office they will be at what time they will get off and also never know when their day off will be!. I had management remove my time card so I couldn't clock in because they wanted me to go to another office. Sorry calling me 10min before my start time is b.s.

While this was going on in Denver, Memphis TN had a City Carrier Assistant (CCA) that did the unthinkable. Think the term "going postal". The union got involved, went to arbitration and had three higher-ups in the area fired. It shouldn't take a tragic event for toxic supervisors to be dismissed from their positions. If you're a newer postal worker dealing with toxic supervision, please refer to ELM 665.24. That ELM can be used by all crafts in a grievance, EEO complaint or OIG investigation
Screw jury duty. I have the right to remain silent. I never did crimes or caused a court case. Find someone else. Get a better system. Get volunteers. Advertise for jurers. Ever thought of that? Advertising? Ive had 5 jury summons in my life, I wont be going to them. Went to the first one and they let me out. Im just ranting because I get so many summons. They didnt call my number on the last summons. What does a person have to do to have them knock that crap off? A felony? jeeeez le weeeez. f off with it already. I even had all my mail stopped before just for junk mail releif, and guess what, a stupid jury summons showed up still. Not that I checked it in time. Next time I move, im not allowing anyone that address.
I Used To Work For USPS. Management Is Very Bad and Abusive. The System Is Old, Out Of Date, and The USPS Cars are old too. I Lost 40 Pounds working for USPS and I Quit after 4 months. I Could not take it anymore so I Quit. Modern Day Slavery in the USPS is real and It needs to stop for God's sake..
Not sure how true it is but I heard while in training class for the postal service they're so incompetent in upper management that when someone in HR retired they never replace the person and so for almost a year they were not hiring this happened a couple years ago and we're still suffering because of it

Lol, a safe environment. They preach smart safety unless you try to apply it. They talk about stress... yet the work everyone past mental and physical fatigue
I got walked to out, overwhelmed, overworked, understaffed denied access to the restroom and the union did nothing. The supervisor Edna ferris, used to bully me to no end. Until i got her walked out 😂
My 204b supervisor threatened me and said she was going to knock me the fuck out. I had a witness statement, but she had people lie and write statements for her stating I was the aggressor. Nothing was done. If I had threatened her, I would be fighting for my job back.
Isn't it a conflict of interest, for what company has its own union, paying their own employees to represent union members paying monthly $60 union dues, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can, for free, file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation? Usps union is complicit with Usps management, practicing patterns of discrimination and retaliation against injured on duty disabled employees!

Managers can’t get a break. Bottom line is this: Declining volumes since the advent of the internet have devastated revenue. Devastated revenue leads to trying to cut corners, including pay reductions to new hires. Reduction in pay and benefits leads to the hiring of lesser quality of employees, or prospects looking elsewhere for work. Fewer employees leads to huge staffing problems, and in turn the issues the current employees complain about. Managers and supervisors are caught in the middle and feel the pressure from both ends. Eventually, they snap just like anyone would. Many have retired now due to these issues and left an entire new generation of new employees to fend for themselves, gaining no experience from the old salts that know how to make things work.
@@tracywilson4066 Yeah, 2018 was my retirement. I loved the USPS. It was the only job I ever had. But it got old trying to make things work with no support.
@@KnowledgeSeeker78491 In case you haven’t noticed, there have been mass shootings much worse than the Postal shooting of so many years ago. It’s just unfortunate the moniker “going Postal” now is the crude connotation for a crazy person behind a firearm.
Keep in mind this man's story if you are thinking of becoming a postal worker. If you think you are special and this is all about the employee and not management, you are the fool. If you like to kiss management's ass, lie, be confrontational, conspire with management and others to harm another person because you don't like them, lazy, and willing to collude with others to support the justification for firing an employee, willing to use sex to your advantage, you are well on your way to becoming a part of management. The USPS by DESIGN and implementation is a corrupt organization which allows its management, postal inspector, and others to collude freely and without consequences to destroy your life. And don't get it twisted to believe the talk about how the USPS is committed to this or that, it is all bullshit. The commitment is to cover-up this abuse and criminal behavior and to lie to the American People so they are not held accountable. And upper management will do nothing to ensure USPS' own police's and Federal laws are followed. They don't give a fu $k about you, the truth or anything else but protecting their own. My story in summery: May 2021 placed on emergency placement- told this the next day BEFORE I was supposed to got to work- without pay AFTER the Tucson Plant Manager, at the time, Mila Washington, grabbed my hand right in front of a camera at the employee entrance, then told me I was FIRED- in clear violation of the contract between the APWU and the USPS and in violation of my Due Process rights under the 5th amendment of the US Constitution- me in the parking lot to cover it up claiming- she feared for her safety. I had not said a word, other than don't touch me, to her prior to this- I was leaving as directed by a supervisor-, after I was granted permission to speak to my union representative- being clearly told I was to comeback the next day and an Investigative Interview would be conducted. Instead: The Investigative Interview was NOT conducted the next day, it was nearly a month later and done by phone-plant manager Washington claiming I was a danger and therefore, was not allowed in the plant. Supervisor, Earl Griesette, conducted the 'Investigative Interview' the same Earl Grisette who, unbeknownst to me had ALREADY ruled against me at step one on this matter- besides being unethical and in clear violation of my to Due Process rights, it was allowed to happen- union clearly failed me because they should have raised this issue with upper management and did not. I only found this out several month later when the union, finally, sent me, any, documentation I had repeatedly requested, and I found the step one paperwork in it with Griesette's name on it. The Investigative Interview lasted 2.5 hours.- they are supposed to be done to collect facts and NEVER accusatory- accusatory interviews are called interrogations; since I had a right to be presumed innocent , this was clearly unethical behavior, as the supposed collector of facts is in effect not collecting facts, he is working directly with management to find me guilty of misconduct. You cannot get more corrupt than that. I found out several months later, Grisette, when an EEOC investigation was conducted in response to my complaint about an incident in April of 2021 with supervisor Gabe King, the same supervisor I was told I had the leave for the night because he claimed I threatened him.-this was the real reason I was fired, Washington claim was the pretext and to cover her ass for grabbing my hand and her other inappropriate behaviors. In the response by Grisette was a copy of the Investigative Interview. What became readily apparent is what I was asked, and accused of, were vastly different from the actual questions and accusations Griesette asked me- it clearly shows he submitted an altered document under oath in an affidavit t9 the EEOC. I had asked the union representative in the room with Griesette to get me a copy of the investigative Interview, at the time of the interview, so I would have a copy- I knew he had a copy as he was following along and asking questions and raising objections. When I asked for a copy, the union kept blowing me off and to this day I have never received it. So, as the game, and it is a game, is played Griesette gets to lie and misrepresent the facts and I don't have an actual copy to prove it. Or so they think, so can prove beyond any doubt he in fact altered this document to make himself look like he was being impartial. ---Know your rights and the law, in Arizona, you can record ANY phone conversation you are a party to without the other person's consent. This is what happens when arrogant and ignorant people think they won't get caught, they lie their aasses off. The EEOC Report of Investigation is a platinum mine to me. It exposes lie after management lie, it shows how willing the postal inspectors are to lie and prepare documents they know are deliberately inaccurate to make the plant manager look like she was only trying to do her job and that I told them something I had not to support her lie- and astoundingly, wrote it in a memorandum it submitted to management that the interview was recorded. on the recording, I recorded the interview too, I clearly never said what the postal inspector said I said. This was yet another example of a willingness to lie to support me being fired thinking I would never see the report. so to the day am astounded the postal inspectors thought he could get away with it. Well, it has become clear USPS management was clearly on-board with this and was going to do nothing about it. It clearly shows how stories and claims shifted and are inconsistent as to bring comical. 22 months and counting to finally get in front of an arbitrator. What you need to know about USPS arbitrators, some are ex-management and don't necessarily engage in impartial behaviors. Don't assume they will follow the contract, the facts or be ethical. The representative for the USPS will lie and use information that by contract they cannot use- prior claims of misconduct that was adjudicated in the employee's favor for example, the employee was not found to have engaged in misconduct or the case was dropped, yet will consider it 'off the record' against you. This is why you need a strong representative working to protect your interests; and union representatives don't know how, are too stupid to grasp the magnitude of the situation, or allow the USPS representative to present and control a false narrative about you. Arbitration is a screwed up process, where everyone, EXCEPT you, gets to lie and gets held accountable for what they do, say, and are accused of regardless of if you did it or not. Look at it this way, you are on trial and the ONLY one who cannot lie is you. Your accuser and others can lie and will face zero consequences.
Not to mention how these people are treating customers especially here in Lamar Colorado!!! even customers are being talk to like trash!! I have been trying to report the postmaster Because this guy needs to be evaluated!
Stick together and file a EEOC complaint. It starts with one person and you can file it on line. Remember dont sign anything. If you have to always state you dont agree and then sign right after what you wrote. Keep evey piece of paperwork and when you take off work. Just about all what I read calls for a EEOC complaint. I know people dont like to write or go this way, but nothing will change if we dont help one another. Your not alone, because its everywhere. Stay prayed up 🙏
The EEO'S I've filled have went nowhere, but you can try. I'm learning to just stack money, let them talk their sh*t and plan my exit... But what I might start doing is giving angry customers management cellphone numbers
@@KnowledgeSeeker78491 it depends on the way, what your claiming and the wording. Stick to the facts and no emotion in it. It has to get pass this stage for anyone to look at it. Remember they are going to find a reason to not pass it through. Its just the way it is, with the union, social security etc. Don't give up! Research and read old cases filed that fit your claims, their on line; then use some of their wording. Good luck, you can do this. It will take about 3 years, trust me I know thats long because of the game, so you will be appealing a lot. They try to discouraged you to give up. But at the end its a big reward to the bank. Negotiation at the end you will need a lawyer because companies want to pay as less as possible Remember the lawyer will also see if you have a case too. Get witness who are not scare to help and keep all emails and paperwork. Now they will try and target the witness but they can claim protection on retaliation Using prior EEOC witness . Search government EEOC attorneys. Please do all the work needed to pass the first of three stages because attorneys will want money up front. You can do these stages by yourself all you need is a good english writer like Phd or Master writer who can write there but off. Excuce my wording!

USPS needs a management overhaul at a National level.
All facts ✅
They’ll probably be sent to training.
People need to realize how Evil these Supervisors and Postmasters are. And how Weak the USPS Union is.
This type of stuff is EXACTLY why the phrase "going postal" came to be.🙄
Yes, as in the case in Michigan several years ago which resulted in the killing of a postal supervisor, who as part of the harassment of employees, when a postal employee would go to the bathroom, this supervisor would send someone into the bathroom, and go into a stall next to the postal employee, and look over the stall to make the postal employee was actually taking a crap! This same supervisor who was killed was involved with another postal manager who owned a storage building where the USPS would send undeliverable parcels. These two managers, instead of disposing of the the undeliverable parcels were selling the contents for their own private gain. The postal employee who eventually killed this supervisor said what he did was the same as jumping on a grenade in war to save others. How sad.
It’s real , the abuse is so bad . People don’t know how hard postal workers work . The people who should be fired are moved to management. The more awful a person you are , the higher the management ladder you go . 20 years of HELL . Would never recommend that anybody go to work at USPS.
@@paulstough2995recently had a shooting in Memphis TN. Yelling and humiliating workers on the floor, made a carrier assistant "snap".
After the OIG investigation, the union went after the toxic work environment. Three sups (including the DM) were out via arbitration
I was a carrier for 18 months in Denver and resigned in 2020. The usps is one of the most corrupt institutions I have ever seen. Too many people up top getting paid big while cracking the whip on the front lines to work harder with little to NO days off and now they even deliver on Sundays. Management abuses power and is deceitful especially if you don't know the rules. I learned a lot working at usps and grew a lot and am thankful for the experience because now I truly know the meaning of hard work. There's far more to life then just working 6 to 7 days a week.

I agree
Agreed. Wow. That’s crazy.
I worked from nov 22 to May 23 as a rural carrier….the worst employer I have ever worked for on a federal level in manalapan New Jersey. Worst fucking asshole managers I have ever had
Which is exactly why the people doing the work need to know their contractual rights. As long as you know your rights and do your job properly manglement can do nothing
12 hours of work in a 9 hour day and getting paid for 8 .
Yep I work for the postal service and management is the biggest problem
As a former transitional employee at USPS Casual for two years. The USPS MADE my life a living hell. The management was very abusive delivery the messages across to most employees. And the tone, body language was horrible. Working on the LSM, Flat order, working as Mail handler in numerous departments was a challenge. However, the pay was excellent. Moreover, the mental abuse, bullying, power struggles the management was very uncomfortable, unethical. In addition, I told a manager that this will be reported, he told he will fire me. I replied Back, and said if you fire me, I get paid more per week from unemployment than wasting gas driving back and forth to work, save on breakfast and lunch. It was reported, and the manager gotten fired.
USPS is horrible. They don’t treat everyone equal. They have favorites and allow other people to do what they want to do. As a new hire they bully us. I have also complained to management about 4 days of missing pay. They have not done anything about that. It’s so unfair and someone needs to wipe these toxic managers out.
They gonna feel a personal tribal /indigenous lawsuit
Managers are trained to harass workers. People are harassed to the point of freaking out.
I'm a postal employee of 29 years and I am thankful to say that i work at a great office where management believes in a positive workroom atmosphere. Unfortunately in my past, I have dealed with these type of bully supervisors and history shows that those are the ones who get promoted to the higher paying jobs in management quicker. My belief is that nothing's gonna change at these offices in the Denver area. As for the unions, they're worthless. Years ago it was about "fighting tooth and nail for you" and now it's about "hey....let's all just get along". What many also don't realize is that those same bullies in management are either those who have never delivered a piece of mail in their life or who did but got out of it because they couldn't handle the job.
You said it. Carrier for 9 years Illinois area it's unbelievable same trash happening here. My union rep is a compromised sellout.
Exactly, here in Chicago land same trash, union rep is a sellout
Our union rep went straight from steward to management when she had to go back to her route!
I dont, they’re trying to terminate people that call in 3 times in 6 months because theyre sick of the 60-70 hour work weeks
@@PeaceandLukeI agree with you. The union in your area should be reported to the national labor relations board. Postal service is full of uneducated idiots🎸
Yes this man is not lying the supervisors are very incompetent and don't know how to treat or to deal with people

Was an RCA for 6 months. Loved my office, supervisors and coworkers but the schedule was too much for my marriage and a year old daughter.

If you ever heard the phrase, going postal, it comes from when postal workers would kill their supervisors because of how they were treated. We might actually see this come back.
As current employee, this is by far the worst place to work, they can’t keep their employees, because management is abusive, and they treated me like trash
Why is upper management so toxic though? I don't understand. Are they mostly all veterans with ptsd?
Thank you for speaking up. The public needs to know this ..

This is trickling from the top, in efforts to bring down the service and privatize it. People with deep pockets are salivating at the earnings they'd have when they succeed at their sabotage. Louis DeJoyless needs fired. One requirement to ever be PMG is that you had to carry the mail at some point in your career. DeJoyless never held a postal job. That's a good starting point. Plus, I'd like an investigation into his XPO family business that I'm told received the largest contract with USPS. If that's true, his Amazon stocks, which he increased after being appointed PMG rather than get rid of due to the conflict of interest, is another violation. He was appointed PMG after a $650,000 donation to the RNC. I want him thoroughly investigated.
The Post office needs to change its ways, policies, etc. Management is horrible they degrade their workers they over work their people. My short time with the post office before deciding to walk out and refusing to be apart of such a toxic environment, I have seen management cursing at their workers using their power to intimidate people as we’ll as forcing people to work in such a unsafe environment. I saw so many people walking out in such a short period of time that this just tells you the usps Needs to revamp and restructure their company and how they operate as well as who they have managing their branches!!!! What the post office needs to realize is that if they continue the route they are going eventually they will not have the man power to deliver mail which has been an ongoing issue for years. Customers are not happy with the services of the usps and they have the right not to be!!!Usps is not delivering mail on a daily basis instead they are holding onto mail at the branch because they don’t have the man power to deliver. that’s why people are not getting their mail in time and most customers complain that their mail is being delivered to the wrong address or lost in transit and the reason for this is because postal workers are being forced to work in such a fast pace environment and rush rather than getting the job done properly. If employees/union get together and take a stand maybe 🤔 some changes will come in the near future. Also the biggest red flag is the contract that is currently in place. Workers on not being compensated properly as postal employees which means the union needs to fight for a better contract where employees start with a better base salary that accounts for all the work they do as well as flexibility where employees are entitled to at least 2 days off a week. What USPS does not realize is that To keep people you need to treat them right, be flexible, and pay them properly!!!!!!

Management sucks. They don’t care about their employees. You are just a body and very replaceable. We are run to exhaustion. It’s just ridiculous.
Thing is they’re learning we’re not so replaceable. Staff issues is the major problem. Majority of carriers love their job but management is beyond complacent in making hiring changes, getting competitive, and are more than happy with abusing their current work force. So when one or more quits, that’s thrown onto others still staying.
If striking was allowed, it would’ve been done already. Instead if we strike were immediately fired.

My aunt told me something years ago about companies that I never forget. She said if she had to call in for work because one of her kids her sick, she would always say she was the one who was sick. Now of course if it's a family member and it's an ongoing condition then get FMLA
The problem is a lack of management skills and experience that it trickles down from person to person. They come right off the street into those positions. I been there almost a year. My job before that I was on it for 25yrs with the last 8yrs as a supervisor. I have NEVER seen a organization ran like the post office. I got hurt and they don’t want to pay me. I went two months without pay and I’m still fighting to get my money. Another thing, I have never heard of a place hiring a person and they are NOT a regular employee. And they waste more money on gas and overtime delivering packages on Sundays. It don’t knock a dent in Mondays parcels.
If you were a supervisor I don’t feel sorry for you , you probably screwed some worker over in the last 8 years.
They will spend a million dollars to keep from losing a fight for 300.00. I was warned about this before I went to work there. They will harass you now. Get a lawyer
This is the way it has been for ages. I've been with them for 16 years and it's always been the same old song and dance. Everything Amazon employees are making National news about is what every delivery service has been coping with for decades.

Yes this is true, checking hours after a long day's work has become a habit because they like to mess with ur pay, they talk down to u, crawl around at our feet, pop up on our routs even on their days off, issue discipline following their instructions, then chase u around the office trying to illicit a negative response, most of the time you will only have 2 options leave work and miss a day of pay or be falsely accused of threatening your supervisor to protect yourself your only option is to file an eeo complaint claiming discrimination, or sexaul harassment which is difficult to prove which is one of the many reasons why the post office is having trouble finding workers that last
As a former usps employee I can definitely say I witnessed and were a victim of this, management thinks they are invincible because postmasters let this stuff continues with no disciplinary action
It happens in other state run programs as well. Sometimes people don't quit because of, "the golden handcuffs"
Wow in the postal service will pay millions to hire a gang of lawyers instead of investigating management. Employees pay the price over and over not management ever.
This is my 3rd day as an MHA (Mail Handler Assistant) in a distribution center. Twice now they've broken California labor laws sending me to lunch 2 hours past the legal time. I've honestly never worked for a company where this seems to be a frequent occurrence with not just me, but other employees in my work station.
File a grievance with the union
I've been a PSE Clerk for about 4 months and work distribution in Georgia. I was told on my first day when taking a tour with my other new co-workers what time we started work. During the tour, I said so we work from 3 am to 11:30 am with a half-hour lunch? Everyone looked at me... the supervisor said no. I said we work until noon or longer with an hour's lunch?? The supervisor looked puzzled and again said no. So I said I'm confused, lunch is paid for by the post office during our shift? She said you work eight hours from 3 am until 11 am and go home.
Even though I've been living in Georgia for the past three years, this is my first time working in this state. I'm from Illinois and I was working from home for a company in Illinois when I moved to Georgia. In Illinois, they drill in you that you must take at least a 20-minute lunch if you work longer than 6 hours. I thought it was against the law not to give people a lunch break if they worked longer than 6 hours. After talking to a co-worker, he said it is not a law that employers are required to give their employees a lunch break in Georgia. I find this to be absurd! After looking into it I found out that it is a state law for some states but not all and Illinois is on the list of states that it is required to give employees a lunch break when working more than 6 hours. I also read the USPS contract and even though it is not a state law that employees are required to be offered a meal break, it is a COMPANY POLICY. You also get two 15-minute breaks when working an 8-hour shift. 5 minutes to wash up and 10 minutes for your break. A week or two later the supervisor told all the PSEs we have to take lunch if we were working 8 hours or more. For a short time, they had us working 10 hours a day with a 2-hour lunch break. We all put up a fuss about that and they stopped doing it but cut our hours to 6 hours a day and we work 6 days a week.
The management in our office does a lot of underhanded childish things and they need to be investigated. The union reps are useless because they're friends with management.

It should be treated as a service and NOT a business, that's one of the largest mistakes management has going. Too much "lean - min/max everything for the sake of making $$$" ... and not enough "treat employees and customers like human beings"... I've had a Manager (within the past month) tell me they routinely get yelled at by higher-ups from them in the district over s*** as minuscule as carriers going 2 units... I mean, that's the definition of asinine.
Also ... simply put... You cannot live (comfortably with any sort of family)... on a standard postal wage in most major cities. It hasn't remained competitive enough to lure people to do the job with the pay, sadly.
Worst part is long term: for every 3-4 new hires we get, we are lucky if 1-2 of them stick around. In the meantime, we have 2-4 people retiring every year. The math isn't adding up to staffing being maintained adequately.
I left the post office after 3 years of employment. I loved my job, loved my customers. I still consider many of them family. But management drove me to leave. They treated me like absolute shit. Constantly insulted me, both professionally and personally, constantly stole my money (by illegally manipulating my clock in clock out times), forced me to work off the clock with threat of discipline if I didn't. Hell, my post master even tried to make me homeless. I worked for 7 months straight with not even a single day off (no weekends, no weedays), 8am to about 2am every day.
I loved the post office, and I loved my job... but I would never go back.
Amen l say to you ,all these people speak the truth. The USPS needs total overhaul of management from the lowest substitute supervisors to the PM General himself. First of all mass-fire all their asses then only hire back the few that would pass very strict psychological screening. And re-screen them annually. They slip up they're GONE. You hit the nail right in the head. Harrassment intimidation bullying is rampant. Yet these bad managers keep on doing it with impunity , because they know nothing will be done about it. Management is constantly bitching that the carriers want more money, more money but they overlook the obvious --QUIT TREATING THE CARRIERS LIKE SHIT AND START TREATING THEM LIKE HUMAN BEINGS AND THE PROBLEM WOULD SOLVE ITSELF !!!!!! I COULD GO on and on ..... Glad l retired, my nerves were SHOT, but l still feel sorry for all my co-workers that I left behind, A eat knows when to desert a sinking ship 🚢..
QA
Our old Postmaster was convicted of theft of Postal Funds. Unfortunately for us he was rehired. His brother was Postmaster of the Sectional Facility. His felonious brother would pull a knife and threaten his carriers. I believe the Postal Management team needs to be scrutinized from the top down.
Management is the problem and the postal service has their lawyers to protect them exactly why management doesn’t care what they do to workers. They are always covered.
Conflict of interest, What company has its own union, paying their own employees to represent union members paying monthly $60 union dues, gaining no money for winning grievances,when you can file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation?
Usps union is complicit with management!!!
Why is management so toxic fromwhat I hear? is it because they're all felons or veterans with ptsd?
Pull a knife?? Please, get real.
Corrupt from top to bottom. The union always took management side , postal unions are a waste of money .
The environment is horrible. Both management and coworkers.
Looking back on a 31 year career with retirement looming on the horizon. I can see how attrition is really coming to play mainly where retirement is concerned. Also, Denver was not excempt from Covid19 in which my unit was impacted rather adversely. So with all the reports that are out about the Postal Service. May one please know that, there is someone that works for the Postal Service that knows how important ones medicine is.
There is someone that also wants your Grandchildren to receive their celebratory cards.
There is someone trying to fill every truck to your Zip Code with every bit of available mail for an on-time departure. There is someone waiting to receive your mail from your loved one or out of state business for processing. So until retirement happens and speaking for myself. This is what you can expect from me America. To see that you get your mail! I love you America and it is a privilege to serve you!
Heard denver and boulder area is a cluster. People being forced 10-12hrs every day and also being forced in on their day off CONSTANTLY is pathetic and not safe. Something needs to be done so the NALC contract will be respected.
Working in the US is the same everywhere. The culture of toxic supervisors, mental and emotional abuse and disrespect goes across all pay grades and professions. For example I was a teacher, my friends are nurses and my MIL was a mail carrier.
Every post office is like this nation wide and it will never end
Local postmaster and mgmt are bullies in a small rural Sw Va area. Flounced in bc of her skin color, she plays god daily. Manipulating accounts after personally going into them each morning and never delivering packages. Complaint system GOES RIGHT BACK INTO SAID BULLIES HANDS EVERY TIME. Giving her more power to hold mail, re route packages, delay and NEVER deliver. Multiple complaints to Customer Service, then to OIG office and if you as the bullied complaintant dont do the leg work, spend the money for copues and delivery cert. Then your complaint NEVER gets acknowledged
If people weren't so damn scary....Speak up..employees out number management..

Our postmaster makes fun of everyone, calls them all dumb. Said Covid didn’t exist, laughed and giggled at anyone wearing a mask. Wouldn’t order cleaning products, soap, paper towels, bleach, nothing. Said she couldn’t order it. Gets mad when the LLV won’t start, won’t get our keys so we can check our LLV, so we find out at 11am it won’t run. Let’s the clerks take over the office, they wouldn’t let us get our packages sometimes until noon to even work on them. Sound like a nice place?
These are our heros, they deserve respect and love
We need the news more involved in this story, nation wide. The explosion of information and bullying and bad mouth by management in this federal institution is going to have more negative resolution if nothing is done soon!!!!!! Help!!!!! I’m keeping a copy of this message if there nothing done by the government!!!! We need help!!!!!!!
Management really sucks at the post office
At main postal center in Jackson Mississippi, Management refused to order workers to securely wrap box containing a child’s bike for delivery for weeks, in order to force a worker on lifting restrictions to lift and re-wrap the box.
I do not doubt abuse and bullying in the least. But the issue lies in staffing, expected productivity, and uncompetitive wages in HCOL areas. And this guy prolly resigned because he was forced to after talking to the media. Big no no mr.
Why, because Usps retaliates and Usps union is complicit with Usps management?!!!
Why pay monthly $60 union dues,, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation?!!!

Those are EEOC cases for disabled/injured employers.
@@magnagaurd if you look at the many discrimination and retaliation cases, sexual, race, gender, religion and nationality
That’s why I got the hell outta there when I had the opportunity to. Was there for 6+ years and very happy I left
All over the Country!
That’s every single postal. honestly I’m surprised the post office is open. I can definitely see the post office just crumbling within itself because it does not know how to sustain a positive strong workforce instead a primarily focuses on fear and power.
As a note from the public...God help us with the credit card bills. If a person mails in the check on time; but the post office is late with delivery, you know what those credit card companies will do to you.
Exactly why as a carrier for 25 years I pay my bills online.
That’s a lie about providing a safe environment management gets away with mistreatment of the employees
Postal management is abusive everywhere, all over America

I’ve been told get the f’in out of my office. There’s always miss communication and signals in the office. It doesn’t help when you’re outside working.
THAT IS NOTHING NEW THEY HAVE BEEN DOING THAT FOR YEARS, YEARS, YEARS.. ❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️ THEY WILL NEVER CHANGE ❗️❗️❗️❗️
Was abused and bullied by senior usps workers…I lucked up with strict but professional supervisors and postmasters…a worker actually told me if I tell remember snitches get stitches my life was threatened and nothing was done after I repeatedly reported the harassment and threats to my life
It’s happened to me too. 😢😢 it’s any organization to help us! I got abused! 😢
Management are bullies at USPS. I gave up my life working long hours for them as a CCA. Two supervisors provided misinformation to me on a route when I literally had only carried mail for a couple weeks on my own and said "it's mostly drive-offs" then complained when I was doing bad times on the route. Then when the disgruntled Postmaster finally trained me on how to run the route correctly, explained where the walking relays are and gave me park points I began running good times on the route immediately. He made sure to threaten to fire me first though and say "you're not going to get training on every route." Then when I called the union guy about that incident I feel they targeted me for retaliation. They had me running a full route in a depressed part of town where they absurdly claim you could do ten spread out walking relays and two drive-off sections on four side streets that are away from the rest of the route in 4 1/2 or 5 hours, which was an absurdly unrealistic time frame. The best time I did on it was 7 1/2 hours on a light mail day! I don't see how anyone could finish the route in 5 or 6 hours without literally sprinting from house to house putting their health at risk! Management is notorious for overworking employees. Especially newbies and expecting you to run your routes in unrealistic time frames set by upper management who never deliver a piece of mail! The union seemed pretty weak at my location. Management plays favorites, communicates very poorly and they are bullies! They fire the people they don't like and don't give people a chance to learn the job.
They have certain machines they put you on when they want to force you out. They refused to train me on the tow motor,;I past and even corrected the test
Nothing has changed. Bullies in mismanagement and things are getting worse.
Absolutely ridiculous for anyone to be treated like that!!!
The thing is, we’re not allowed to go on strike, as per contract stated. That SAME contract that management breaks on a daily basis.
The problem is there is no standard on becoming a supervisor. Management promotes non career employee such as psc and mhas to 204b because us senior employees don't want to go into management because it Is all nepotism. Managers get promoted into higher positions because they kiss ass not because they are good at there job. Hell in my plant supervisor don't even know what a supervisor handbook is nor are they knowledgeable in the elm. This is what ur politicians want they want chaos in the postal system so they can privatize it and get unions out and pay people half of what postal employees make. Wake up this is done intentionally
Management treat employees especially CCAs like 'whores'. CCAs never know what office they will be at what time they will get off and also never know when their day off will be!. I had management remove my time card so I couldn't clock in because they wanted me to go to another office. Sorry calling me 10min before my start time is b.s.

Why are you spamming all the comments with this reply?
While this was going on in Denver, Memphis TN had a City Carrier Assistant (CCA) that did the unthinkable. Think the term "going postal". The union got involved, went to arbitration and had three higher-ups in the area fired. It shouldn't take a tragic event for toxic supervisors to be dismissed from their positions.
If you're a newer postal worker dealing with toxic supervision, please refer to ELM 665.24. That ELM can be used by all crafts in a grievance, EEO complaint or OIG investigation
my first round in the 90's this was rampant every day. My friends in the post office now report this to me weekly.
Screw jury duty. I have the right to remain silent. I never did crimes or caused a court case. Find someone else. Get a better system. Get volunteers. Advertise for jurers. Ever thought of that? Advertising? Ive had 5 jury summons in my life, I wont be going to them. Went to the first one and they let me out. Im just ranting because I get so many summons. They didnt call my number on the last summons. What does a person have to do to have them knock that crap off? A felony? jeeeez le weeeez. f off with it already. I even had all my mail stopped before just for junk mail releif, and guess what, a stupid jury summons showed up still. Not that I checked it in time. Next time I move, im not allowing anyone that address.
I Used To Work For USPS. Management Is Very Bad and Abusive. The System Is Old, Out Of Date, and The USPS Cars are old too. I Lost 40 Pounds working for USPS and I Quit after 4 months. I Could not take it anymore so I Quit. Modern Day Slavery in the USPS is real and It needs to stop for God's sake..
Sounds like the post office would have made you live 15 years longer
Not sure how true it is but I heard while in training class for the postal service they're so incompetent in upper management that when someone in HR retired they never replace the person and so for almost a year they were not hiring this happened a couple years ago and we're still suffering because of it
There was a saying where I worked. If you can’t do your job, move up.

This has been going on for 40 years
This is happening here in Mobile they talk to us like we’re children and the union is enabling them to do so it’s sad
Sad but he is right I worked at the one in Colorado we complained and management is the problem
This is so TRUE
I got walked to out, overwhelmed, overworked, understaffed denied access to the restroom and the union did nothing. The supervisor Edna ferris, used to bully me to no end. Until i got her walked out 😂
They delay mail for Amazon.

Managers can’t get a break. Bottom line is this: Declining volumes since the advent of the internet have devastated revenue. Devastated revenue leads to trying to cut corners, including pay reductions to new hires. Reduction in pay and benefits leads to the hiring of lesser quality of employees, or prospects looking elsewhere for work. Fewer employees leads to huge staffing problems, and in turn the issues the current employees complain about. Managers and supervisors are caught in the middle and feel the pressure from both ends. Eventually, they snap just like anyone would. Many have retired now due to these issues and left an entire new generation of new employees to fend for themselves, gaining no experience from the old salts that know how to make things work.
@@tracywilson4066 Yeah, 2018 was my retirement. I loved the USPS. It was the only job I ever had. But it got old trying to make things work with no support.

Keep in mind this man's story if you are thinking of becoming a postal worker.
If you think you are special and this is all about the employee and not management, you are the fool.
If you like to kiss management's ass, lie, be confrontational, conspire with management and others to harm another person because you don't like them, lazy, and willing to collude with others to support the justification for firing an employee, willing to use sex to your advantage, you are well on your way to becoming a part of management.
The USPS by DESIGN and implementation is a corrupt organization which allows its management, postal inspector, and others to collude freely and without consequences to destroy your life. And don't get it twisted to believe the talk about how the USPS is committed to this or that, it is all bullshit. The commitment is to cover-up this abuse and criminal behavior and to lie to the American People so they are not held accountable. And upper management will do nothing to ensure USPS' own police's and Federal laws are followed. They don't give a fu $k about you, the truth or anything else but protecting their own.
My story in summery:
May 2021 placed on emergency placement- told this the next day BEFORE I was supposed to got to work- without pay AFTER the Tucson Plant Manager, at the time, Mila Washington, grabbed my hand right in front of a camera at the employee entrance, then told me I was FIRED- in clear violation of the contract between the APWU and the USPS and in violation of my Due Process rights under the 5th amendment of the US Constitution- me in the parking lot to cover it up claiming- she feared for her safety. I had not said a word, other than don't touch me, to her prior to this- I was leaving as directed by a supervisor-, after I was granted permission to speak to my union representative- being clearly told I was to comeback the next day and an Investigative Interview would be conducted.
Instead:
The Investigative Interview was NOT conducted the next day, it was nearly a month later and done by phone-plant manager Washington claiming I was a danger and therefore, was not allowed in the plant.
Supervisor, Earl Griesette, conducted the 'Investigative Interview' the same Earl Grisette who, unbeknownst to me had ALREADY ruled against me at step one on this matter- besides being unethical and in clear violation of my to Due Process rights, it was allowed to happen- union clearly failed me because they should have raised this issue with upper management and did not. I only found this out several month later when the union, finally, sent me, any, documentation I had repeatedly requested, and I found the step one paperwork in it with Griesette's name on it.
The Investigative Interview lasted 2.5 hours.- they are supposed to be done to collect facts and NEVER accusatory- accusatory interviews are called interrogations; since I had a right to be presumed innocent , this was clearly unethical behavior, as the supposed collector of facts is in effect not collecting facts, he is working directly with management to find me guilty of misconduct. You cannot get more corrupt than that.
I found out several months later, Grisette, when an EEOC investigation was conducted in response to my complaint about an incident in April of 2021 with supervisor Gabe King, the same supervisor I was told I had the leave for the night because he claimed I threatened him.-this was the real reason I was fired, Washington claim was the pretext and to cover her ass for grabbing my hand and her other inappropriate behaviors.
In the response by Grisette was a copy of the Investigative Interview. What became readily apparent is what I was asked, and accused of, were vastly different from the actual questions and accusations Griesette asked me- it clearly shows he submitted an altered document under oath in an affidavit t9 the EEOC. I had asked the union representative in the room with Griesette to get me a copy of the investigative Interview, at the time of the interview, so I would have a copy- I knew he had a copy as he was following along and asking questions and raising objections. When I asked for a copy, the union kept blowing me off and to this day I have never received it. So, as the game, and it is a game, is played Griesette gets to lie and misrepresent the facts and I don't have an actual copy to prove it. Or so they think, so can prove beyond any doubt he in fact altered this document to make himself look like he was being impartial. ---Know your rights and the law, in Arizona, you can record ANY phone conversation you are a party to without the other person's consent. This is what happens when arrogant and ignorant people think they won't get caught, they lie their aasses off.
The EEOC Report of Investigation is a platinum mine to me. It exposes lie after management lie, it shows how willing the postal inspectors are to lie and prepare documents they know are deliberately inaccurate to make the plant manager look like she was only trying to do her job and that I told them something I had not to support her lie- and astoundingly, wrote it in a memorandum it submitted to management that the interview was recorded. on the recording, I recorded the interview too, I clearly never said what the postal inspector said I said. This was yet another example of a willingness to lie to support me being fired thinking I would never see the report. so to the day am astounded the postal inspectors thought he could get away with it. Well, it has become clear USPS management was clearly on-board with this and was going to do nothing about it.
It clearly shows how stories and claims shifted and are inconsistent as to bring comical.
22 months and counting to finally get in front of an arbitrator.
What you need to know about USPS arbitrators, some are ex-management and don't necessarily engage in impartial behaviors. Don't assume they will follow the contract, the facts or be ethical. The representative for the USPS will lie and use information that by contract they cannot use- prior claims of misconduct that was adjudicated in the employee's favor for example, the employee was not found to have engaged in misconduct or the case was dropped, yet will consider it 'off the record' against you. This is why you need a strong representative working to protect your interests; and union representatives don't know how, are too stupid to grasp the magnitude of the situation, or allow the USPS representative to present and control a false narrative about you.
Arbitration is a screwed up process, where everyone, EXCEPT you, gets to lie and gets held accountable for what they do, say, and are accused of regardless of if you did it or not. Look at it this way, you are on trial and the ONLY one who cannot lie is you. Your accuser and others can lie and will face zero consequences.
Keep us updated on your EEO
For the postal service to survive it must go private.
Not to mention how these people are treating customers especially here in Lamar Colorado!!! even customers are being talk to like trash!! I have been trying to report the postmaster Because this guy needs to be evaluated!
Stick together and file a EEOC complaint. It starts with one person and you can file it on line. Remember dont sign anything. If you have to always state you dont agree and then sign right after what you wrote. Keep evey piece of paperwork and when you take off work. Just about all what I read calls for a EEOC complaint. I know people dont like to write or go this way, but nothing will change if we dont help one another. Your not alone, because its everywhere. Stay prayed up 🙏
The EEO'S I've filled have went nowhere, but you can try. I'm learning to just stack money, let them talk their sh*t and plan my exit... But what I might start doing is giving angry customers management cellphone numbers
@@KnowledgeSeeker78491 it depends on the way, what your claiming and the wording. Stick to the facts and no emotion in it. It has to get pass this stage for anyone to look at it. Remember they are going to find a reason to not pass it through. Its just the way it is, with the union, social security etc. Don't give up! Research and read old cases filed that fit your claims, their on line; then use some of their wording. Good luck, you can do this. It will take about 3 years, trust me I know thats long because of the game, so you will be appealing a lot. They try to discouraged you to give up. But at the end its a big reward to the bank. Negotiation at the end you will need a lawyer because companies want to pay as less as possible Remember the lawyer will also see if you have a case too. Get witness who are not scare to help and keep all emails and paperwork. Now they will try and target the witness but they can claim protection on retaliation Using prior EEOC witness . Search government EEOC attorneys. Please do all the work needed to pass the first of three stages because attorneys will want money up front. You can do these stages by yourself all you need is a good english writer like Phd or Master writer who can write there but off. Excuce my wording!
