Dump DEJOY!! He is setting us back hundreds of years!!
We were already set back hundreds of years prior to DeJoy. We are where we are because things went unchecked for DECADES, now someone is addressing them. Please, what has he done that set us back so far?
He decreaseD the mail standards. SLOWED DOWN THE MAIL, removed the guarantees.
CONTRACTED OUT REGISTERED MAIL, which by regulation must be handled by a POSTAL EMPLOYEE.
Reduced airmail
XPO LOGISTICS, he is robbing the service and lining his pockets!!
Not to mention the lack of accountability for the poorly trained management nationwide.
He’s running it like it’s a private sector business it is not.
He has no regard for WORKING CONDITIONS displayed in this video when he’s asked about the extreme temperatures.
He displays an extreme disregard for the regulatory committees, placed to protect the Postal Service and its interests.
Not to mention the board of governors who put de joy in there to begin with
Over working us rural carriers and paying us less ...working atleast 6 hours a week without pay because of this new RRECS system ...this has to be fixed!
Abolish all salary bonuses for postal management! This isn't that kind of job! And they're overpaid as it is; stop cutting at the bottom
Not a soul talked about the poor mental state most of the postal employees are dealing with. Most worked straight through the pandemic, the lockdowns and quarantines while teaching their own kids and working 6days a week. Most lost family members left and right and continued to work 6 days a week. The mental health of the post office is at a serious low. The moral is even lower.
DeJoys Job is 24/7 carrying the weight of the mental health of 650k postal workers. Get your own health in style, dejoy has his own problems to deal with.
He was ok with cutting our pay but he gave himself a raise
This seems to be a problem EVERYWHERE. Whatever happened to earning a raise based on performance? That's the way MOST OF the real world operates...
@UnemployDejoy 😡 So wrong. Dejoy is dirty. He came in & really screwed things up. Another one of the SWAMP FILLERS APPOINTEES! tRump got someone in there fast to slow down the delivery of Ballots. People were receiving rotten fruit. They were getting checks late & all kinds of crap, bc of this dirty man! Why hasn't Biden gotten rid of him?
Perhaps DeJoy should get on the ball with the Rural Carriers union so they can stop working carriers without pay after the issue laden route evaluations. Implementing the new route evaluations without allowing the union to verify the numbers, and it being in arbitration that USPS are in violation of the contact with the rural carrier, is disgusting. Those handheld scanners he mentions are very complicated and very little training has been given for them, and is very intricate to use for the carriers so route evaluations are fair. Carriers are told that training is available on the website, something they would be required on their own time after work - without pay.
@Delivering4AmericaA scans can be situational, typically mounted boxes or work being done. We can't necessarily say the rise is crime against postal carriers is because of something DeJoy did or didn't do exclusively. Crime is on the rise nationwide because criminals are becoming victims and victims are becoming criminals. Pretending that many politicians aren't pushing "soft on crime" policies isn't happening and juries aren't becoming "partial" would be a disservice to postal workers safety and security. The postal carrier is a soft target and would eventually be targeted, it was just a matter of time.
Funny thing Dejoy sounds like the Pathological LIAR ! Year, year uh uh that’s the ticket
He going to destroy the post office.
PMG Dejoy should be indicted on Rico Racketeering charges for paying off union officials $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
SHould have asked about RReccs, Cutting rural carriers up to 30,000 dollars and hours
He gets asked about it at about 1:39:00
Up to $30,000/hours of cuts?! For 25 hours of easy work per week? It's about time someone addressed rural carrier pay. There is such a big difference between rural and city pay scales.
@@proudamerican6846 have you ran City and/or rural mail? Just because someone does the job quicker, doesn't necessarily mean it's easier.. I know rural carriers who do City routes in half the time it takes them to do it.. They work at a slower pace because they are paid by the hour compared to rural carriers being paid salary by evaluation..
USPS is by far the worst place I’ve worked. Corruption, nepotism and laziness
I second the lazy part 😂
heavy on nepotism at my plant. i can’t even count on two hands how many people in management are related and the incompetence is crazy
I'm a rural carrier, working out of a rural office and after this new RRECS re-evaluation garbage, EVERY SINGLE ROUTE IN OUR OFFICE WAS CUT. Not one route gained, many K routes were changed to H or J routes, not only losing pay, but now forcing carriers to work 6 days a week. Here's another little interesting tidbit that the USPS doesn't want anyone to know. During the 2020 election, our postmaster called us all in for a service talk and told every carrier, that any mail in ballots we received after the deadline was to be set aside and brought to him, and he was ordered to back date them so that they would still be counted.. Pretty sure that's illegal, I know I personally must have had at least 50 ballots myself, and this was ordered by Dejoy himself according to our postmaster.
We knew the post office was in on the election. It’s sad that no one told the truth back then.
Blame the board of governors who put the joy in his job the board of governors is picked by you guessed it... 45
WHY is it that Walmart can balance their budget and our US Postmaster can not?
Because the USPS barely has any income
well Dum Dum, walmart underpays thier employees at minimum wage, so t hey can get thier food from food stamps. and thier medical off of the states or NONE. The us postal service is a PUBLIC SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE. it is not a money making enterprise . it is a non profit agency, while walmart is for the profit of its owners. THE POSTAL SERVICE pays a better wage. It MUST BE AFFORDABLE TO T HE PUBLIC. it is too expensive to send packages for the average person, and the poor, as it is. They def shoul d not be raising prices in order to " balance a budget". it should be better funded by the people, FOR THE PEOPLE. ie, our mail and packages shoul d be partially subsidized. duhhhh. get a second brain cell.
Because USPS is mandated by law to deliver to everyone no matter how much of a financial loss they take.
Because USPS is a government entity. How long has it been since any President has actually balanced a budget? Top heavy I’m sure.
Because government workers/pay/and pensions and the pension schemes that they all partake in by working huge OT to game their pension to retire at 50 years old with 100k a year lifetime pension.
Dejoy MUST GO!! & With him his XPO contract which he more than likely gets a kick Back!!
This is an affront to the working class
Then why did the Express Mail time change from 12p to 6p delivery?
I can tell you that at our post office the Priority express packages do not get delivered to our office until 1 pm. Most of us are already out delivering our routes by that time and we are forced to make a second trip to deliver any expresses we may have. ( and they only pay us for mileage, not for our time.
@@stevestevens336Wow.
The upper management must not consider ebay and Amazon mail. The increase of all the packages has most definately increased our "volume".
These Congress people using this for their specific “constituent” issues is ridiculous…..let’s address the customers that are getting ready to lose local mail service and the employees about to lose their jobs!!!!
3 billion dollars to buy electric vehicles that won't last 5 years unlike the jeeps that later 20 years. Look at the four profit companies, diesel trucks or high efficiency vans.
I tried to warn my fellow workers about what’s to come I just switched over to maintenance from the clerk craft because I’ve been seeing the signs of our plant being subsidized including employees
Worst postmaster ever!!
How to get rid of him?
Whoever he is needs to be fired I get other people's mail and they get mine they suck big time.
"2 months away from running out of cash" because of a GOVERNMENT bill.
Here's a thought, instead of using all of our tax money on the military (private contractors) why not put some of that into the Postal Service!?! It was never designed to be profitable, it's an American service.
Yep maybe instead of 160 billion to ukraine we help our post office, or 200 billion to solar panels
Electric vehicles? Bro you must be about to make a truck with bout 10 batteries.
More damn time on the road to charge, and it will be unpaid
The post office doesn't deliver the mail in my rural community. We have to go to the post office and get it. That includes heavy packages sent to elderly and disabled people. That's why we prefer Fed Ex and UPS
Fed and UPS deliveries are very likely done by the USPS. USPS goes to every box in every community. Fedex and USPS very likely consider your address in your rural community as "last mile" deliveries. Therefore they dont directly deliver to you, even though it is a Fedex/UPS package. What they do is give "the last mile" package o a rural USPS carrier.
Guy can’t answer a question without stuttering.
Is that all you took away from 3 hours of video?
Right 🤣🤣
Not only stuttering when he starts to lie look at his eyes the way they start blinking fast
This guy is a FRICKING JOKE. He put in place a new CHange of address policy. The new system DOES NOT work and hasn’t worked since put in place. I have not received my mail for two month since putting in the change of address. Neither post office can tell me where my mail is all they can tell me is the change of address has gone through. The Postal service did a 3 day investigation as to where my mail is…to find NOTHING. Next investigation took 5 days to find, you guessed it…NOTHING. Now I’m told the change of address can take up to 4-5 weeks longer.
The Postal Service is a typical Government ran agency!
Both the old and the Post Office tell me the new Change of Address system gets complaints everyday yet nothing has been done to correct it thus far. Shame on the Postmaster General!!!
Typical Republican-run Government agency. Ran right into the ground. This is the reaction they want from us, so there’s no pushback on privatizing it to their pals. They’ve been wanting to destroy USPS for over 20yrs, DeJoy’s part of that plan. All the “lost” mail & the wild goosechases they send you on when you need to change address or put prohibitory orders was not an issue 20 years ago. USPS was leaking money but at least it worked.
Update: 9-15-2023
After 3 month and 2 day dealing with this problem I’m finally getting mail. I originally filled out a change of address card at the new post office, after that didn’t work I was told to do it online (which I had to pay a fee). Then I find out someone had gone into the system and deleted both of those change of addresses. Of course no one could tell who did that so no one was held accountable. I was told to do it online once again and had to pay AGAIN. Third time is a charm.
It seems we have all this great technology but yet the right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. 🤪 I hope the Post Master General steps on a Lego barefooted!
They ripped this guy apart lol
the USPS should get a good size subsidy from the Tax Payers. All of us would appreciate better service and lower rates ! it is the very definition of PUBLIC SERVICE! AND WORTHY OF OUR MONEY. subsidy would allow a lot more people to sell online from home and send thru the mail. PRICES HAVE GONE UP TERRIBLY. this woul d help the economy and flow of money, food, and goods to more people stuck at home, and all our ecommerce consumer markets. it would diminish the market share that china has, selling to americans via e commerce thru thier subsidized mails they have over there ( thus cheaper to buy from them than americans).. Price of shippin go rmailing is astronomical and makes selling impossible for Americans in our own country!
The US Postal Service is enshrined in the Constitution, but some anti-gubbermint pick & choose the parts of the Constitution they want respected. Hypocrites.
I live in Pico Rivera the post office you need to investigate big time fraud mail you have insider and and outsider
Best way to stop all this bs about reparations talk is to tell all state and local and federal congress people that it will be coming out of their wages and that their will be no more increasing of their wages ever then watch them back peddle and never bring it up again
What the hell does that have to do with this ?
But to your point, why would just government employees be paying ?
The whole reparations idea is a joke to begin with & i am completely against it , but I don't understand why only government employees would be sentenced with the burden....most don't make that much to begin with.
The postal service is self-sustain
There is no way a person with no experience should be able to come in and destroy the Postal Service. I saw it with my own eyes as an employee and now I hear about it from my Son and other friends who still work there. This guy brought his people with him and a company he is closely associated with is benefiting from our tax dollars in a huge way. He is doing this in broad daylight year after year and nothing can be done? How about an audit? Where is the money that should be going toward better service? I’d say in his pocket. Raises and bonuses in 2021 should have been a huge red flag. All of the delayed mail, he’s ignoring inquiries from Senators and Cobsuner Affairs for customer complaints has been shut down for years. It takes months to get certified mail returned to senders and it should be done by the protocol in place but they got rid of that area too. He should be investigated by the DOJ. He works hand in hand with the gerrymandering and their whole plan to steal elections while killing oeople who need their meds and causing financial disaster for businesses and people who need to pay their bills without penalties and late charges.
Fibbers who lie for fibers caused me to lose all interest in paperboard
If postal carriers are unsafe it means any delivery person is unsafe, how about we fund local police and justice systems so everyone is safe
How is it cheaper to move processing from inexpensive property and lower cost of living areas like Nevada to the highest cost area of southern california.
It is not a new plan! It’s the Donahue plan!!!
An Idea, with as much corruption with money as well as legal problems, I have a thought as to one of the oldest Est. in America's communication...would America Finance or bail out or let fall this service, or would it confiscate illegal means of which seems to be the point of disruption considering money....as to the truth of all this....and fund a renewal of the countinual of America's oldest service. Bear?
The Post Masters should be the BOSS of the COUNTY they work in. NOT the foreign *USA* Department of Commerce's ZIP CODE areas. ***ALL*** EMPLOYEES AND ANY AUTHORIZED CONTRACTORS should BE TRAINED on the UPU - and INTERNATIONAL TREATY as it relates to Individual Residential customers Versus BUSINESS/govt customers. NONE OF THE "POSTAL" WORKERS I ENCOUNTERED IN PAST DECADE EVEN KNEW THE STAMP ACT WAS REPEALED - THAT INTERFERENCE WITH MAIL DELIVERY IN/OUT OF JAILS [Private Owned NON Reporting Human Trafficking REMIC businesses) between Husbands/Wives and other Family Members NEVER EVEN CONVICTED OF ANY CRIME BUT MIS-LABELED BY THE ENTERPRISE as "inmates", and ONLY ONE - OUT OF LITERALLY DOZENS of Post Offices Nationwide even know what a RED REGISTERED LABELED mail item MEANS.
Them rural carrier and city carrier driving 50min to 1hr to work at them S/DC plant
DeJoy, saturated with conflict of interest, dedicated to the privatization of the US postal service, a neo-fascist.
it would help if the US was not paying to deliver many millions of dollars of Chinese mail every year
to be honest dejoy don't seem like a bad guy he seems very content on making better changes to a old and run down system. he's also showing some type of compassion with the poster workers and seems to understand the urgent help we need. plus he wants to end the cca postion and anyone whos out to end that position has my vote! better pay, happy worker, happy workers equals better working environment !
You've ruined people's livelihoods! DeJoy needs to go!
How? Please explain....
Taking money away from hardworking people trying to care of their families during a affordable crisis
Flight log. ....you got it ?
Dejoy is a mobster
Is he still in office with 6 Billion in losses + his past deeds
Racetrack strapped stripped down to a stick. Sic sic.SIC.
Look up. Tag of war
I see many saying DeJoy needs to go but he has barely had time to get things going. This is decades of issues that have went unchecked and now someone is checking them, yet it's still not enough. Welcome to the post office. Remove DeJoy, the problems still exist. Tired of everyone expecting instant results. I bet most people don't even know why they don't like DeJoy. We aren't even half way through the 10 year plan. USPS needs an update, we're getting it, let's at least make it to the half way mark before we start pointing fingers at everyone except ourselves. Don't forget, a lot of the entry level employees add to the toxicity at the work place. Check yourself before you check someone else.
Bottom line it starts from the top! It's those who are running the post office is the one who ran it into the ground.
Toxic don't even describe these people; more like poison.
He's a trump lackey.
@@joycegriffin3652 - and you - - - what is YOUR contribution to the greatness of this country?
I've been with USPS for a year now after the state closed my Detention facility. The carriers are lazy, and a lot of the burden is caused by the "culture" of the post office. All of the crackdowns and cameras being introduced are to fix the time theft(Freudian slip, I meant culture)issue created by those same old timers(Which is ironic because its a lazy way to increase profit margins). Many of whom can't walk a route to begin with. Management doesn't make it any better, with hiring practices and lack in creativity to increase production and improve attendance. Note to HR, if someone is 150 lbs overweight, it's probably not a good hire. The union needs to be a more united front or replaced all together, dumping all of these local agreements and being united under a single banner.
The board of governors is in charge of the joy that's why making any changes and getting rid of the joy would not make any difference
Wait! A postal worker showed up doing his job and startled someone is a hero?

Chasitiy medcando is a big person of interest on mail money fraud
The postal service needs an overhaul. I paid $179.00 for an address change!! Ridiculous 😢
😂
U got scammed
So you want it privatized but you want to pay less?? Lol
……………change of address cards are free or 99cents if you do it online.
Louis dejoy has to go. Period. Biden not getting rid if him is inexcusable.
I think the bigger problem is with every state government! When you receive 4 ballots ,one for yourself and 3 for former owners is a big problem! Not the fault of the postmaster! As far as stolen mail, that’s the great thing about living in a small apartment in a small township! Box we have here is adequate! My question is are they getting rid of forever stamps as we seniors find them less expensive ,in the long run! As far as scanners, I’ve never heard any of our postal workers complain yet!
And ballots for dead people!
If you haven't heard any carriers complain about the scanners, then you don't know many carriers. We have been complaining about them from day 1. They suck.
I don't complain about the scanners, I'm a carrier. I think they can be improved but at least we have scanners. Also, you can't please everyone.

You can drink all day at work but don't smoke while sorting letters with eight arms

Put Dejoy in de jail where he belongs. Let him share a room at Club Fed with DeTrump
So why does he belong in jail? Let's hear about it...

I've been impressed with DeJoy for many years.
to solve the postal crime issues the democrats has to defund the theft. they have to stop funding them
The USPS needs to be privatized.
Easier said than done. The postal vehicles in Florida have no A.C.. When carriers get back to the station in the summer months, they are nice and toasty. Ask your neighborhood carrier at what time and opportunity do they use the restroom.
Lol. You literally know zero
It already is. It's a defacto corporation masquerading as Dejure government. The US POSTAL SERVICE is no longer the Post Office Department as everyone assumes it is. It was changed July 1st 1971.
Not privatized there just needs to be a cap on upper management's salary
That’s what Republicans have been trying to have done for decades...by ruining the USPS. As always, break it, then try to outsource it to their donor class. Like what they did with the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006.
The postal service needs to be massively reduced in size.
We live in a different world today. Most people do not rely on postal mail like they once did. There is no need for daily mail service. Weekly mail service would be sufficient for most. I personally would be okay with monthly mail service. I simply don't use it and don't need it for much of anything.
Like all things government related, nothing ever goes away or gets reformed. The postal service is a lot like the library or typewriter, it is time to move on.
Reduced in size?? You have no clue what you’re talking about.
@@dmyles079 : Yes, I do. The postal service is much like the local library. It simply doesn't provide a public service people absolutely need. Maybe you need to rethink your position. God Bless America.
@@MNDrummer maybe not all but people still rely on the PO.
@@dmyles079 : Some do, then deliver mail once a week or every other week. Daily mail isn't needed, that's just stupid.
People rely on postal mail now more than ever. There are areas in this country where UPS/Fedex/etc won’t deliver because of costs, should those Americans receive no packages or mail? The Postal Service is enshrined in the Constitution, or do you only care about that piece of paper when someone’s coming after the bumpstocks for your AR-15?
Well well well you can just BLAME trump once again for all the screw up’s with the post office after all trump hired The Post master Dejoy. Remember the tangerine monster only hires the best 😅😅😅.
Seems like some TDS going on here. I take it you like blaming everyone else for problems except yourself. Let's hear about these screw ups you are talking about. Biden has screwed all Americans and I wouldn't trust him putting some woke lunatic in charge of USPS. It's bad enough we have racist representation in the OPM.
STOP LYING. Trump did NOT hire him. The Board of Governors chose him. You disinformation agents are always spreading lies for no reason other than to try smearing a man who isn't even in office now.
FYI, the USPS Board of Governors is overwhelmingly Democratic.
Well the orange monster, screwed himself over, with those late absentee ballots and missing trucks of ballots.
Trump counted on people who have been politics for years his mistake was not firing everyone just like Bill Clinton did when he went in office
The post office doesn't deliver the mail in my rural community. We have to go to the post office and get it. That includes heavy packages sent to elderly and disabled people. That's why we prefer Fed Ex and UPS
USPS is only supposed to deliver up to 75lbs... that's what fedex and ups supposed to deliver they only handle packages...plus they always drop their stuff off to us everyday...when u look at your packages u will see several different white labels 😂
