Let me start this by saying that I am not a Union person...however, my hubby is a retired letter-carrier and if it weren't for the union, Postal employees wouldn't stand a chance. The higher ups expect impossible things from the little guys. I have always said that there are way too many Chiefs. Some of those hot shots should have to get out there and work for a living...maybe then they would understand.
Hubby retired under the Federal program...his Social Security check is less than it should be because he is Federal. Even though he had enough credits before he started working for the Postal Service.
They are closing so many of the little Post Offices. Oh, gosh, don't get me started on the Postal System. It's like our government, they don't care about the "little people", only lining their own pockets.
Off my soap box.
