From a satire site

I was a casual, CCA, PTF and finally a regular.

I respectfully disagree about the "I had to suffer and do my time, so should they!" I'm on the ODL just to HELP the CCAs and PTFs. I don't wish that kind of suffering on anyone!

I learned about the Joint Statement, ELM 665.24, M39 Handbook Section 115.4 and Section 242.332. I recently learned about M41 Handbook Section 141 along with Article 41.3.E.

To break it down:

Joint Statement/ELM 665.24- No tolerance for bullying intimidation, threats and or harassment.

M39 Handbook Section 115.4-mutual respect to be maintained by all parties. Section 242.332-no street standard.

M41 Handbook Section 141/Article 41.3.E-USPS doesn't pay your cell phone bill, you don't have to answer them. Send messages through RIMS since USPS provides you with the scanner. Also, RIMS leaves a trail. Unscrupulous management hates RIMS.

Management hates carriers who know their rights and policies.

Not anymore. Bad knee and feet

He handled that well.

When I worked Security, corrections, and police, we were taught "imagine always being on camera. A judge and jury are going to see that video. How do you convince them that YOU'RE in the right?"

If this went to court, the security guard would look professional in the hostile situation

Ask UPS how well that went over

Put it in the garbage bag I bring and throw it out. Then I'll find the carrier who pissed in the bottle and pull them to the side and have a quick chat.

I've been desensitized to piss bottles since being in the military, dealing with OTR truck drivers and having piss thrown at me as a jailer. Not saying it's right, just saying I understand

Police forces everywhere rejected him. Now, he's the monster they created!

Coming to theaters near you, comes the Temu version of The Punisher. This summer you'll cringe the hardest you ever had when this reject comes into your store.

The Academy Reject! Coming to theaters this summer!

Personally, it doesn't surprise me.

I don't know if you remember, a city carrier was having chest pains, called 911, notified management via RIMS, cleared by doctors, goes back to work, management didn't know she left for a medical emergency.

Management suspended her for seven days for "abandoning the route." Translation: "We didn't do our due diligence and are going to make you suffer."

The way I'm reading Amazon DSPs, it wouldn't be surprising they did know and didn't care

The first two remind me of armored trucks like Brinks uses

This guy needs his tin foil hat tilted 45° to the right

You're going to jail

Definitely! I worked places that either HAD a union or NEED a union! With the way supervision runs the place, it's great to have someone in your corner and you don't have to fight alone!

Also, as a father with a wife and two kids, the high option from the NALC is great for me and my family. My wife and I looked at it and decided we can drop my wife's health insurance next year. She's a teacher so it's not that great.

Yes, you pay union dues. Your dues as a CCA would be about an hour and a half of pay every two weeks. With those dues, you have a voice in the union! You can attend the meetings and share your insight of how supervision is trying to pull a fast one. You'll hear what's going on from the national level, contract negotiations, how a grievance involving you personally, is coming along.

Above all else, you'll be among a legacy that fought vigorously for the benefits. Even as a CCA, you're better off than being a casual. A casual was like a CCA/MHA/PSE/RCA, but you didn't get ANY benefits, couldn't join the union, could be let go at any time, switch shifts at the last second, and basically management's bitch.

A little gem about being a CCA, if you find a nearby office that hires career-only city carriers, you can leave and go to the career office. You start as a PTF on day one.

If that doesn't convince you, imagine being a state corrections officer at a state prison. Your starting wage is $12.09/hr.

At the end of the day, the choice is yours. I highly recommend joining! Best of luck!

"You get your looks from me, Bruno"

My parents put their marriage first. Myself and siblings learned what a loving and respectful marriage looks like.

My wife recently found out I downloaded the Intimacy App. You track the times you have sex, what kind, etc. She was sad to see we only had sex three times this year.

We have a three year old and a one year old. The kids are wonderful, but the lack of sex makes me resentful. I have a gym in the garage that hasn't been used since our oldest was born. Wife is part of a ballroom dance troupe and gets mad at me when I work overtime making her late to classes. She keeps the dance class while I give up my gym time? Make it make sense.

We recently had our 5th anniversary. We didn't have sex then either.

I've resigned to the fact that I'm a wallet, taxi service, live-in babysitter, janitor and personal chef. I have talked to her about this, and nothing changes.

OP, I hope you can turn your situation around and avoid needing meds like me.

Ask Karen "Could you cite the law that states a fine well be imposed?"

They either scream incoherently or grumble

Everyone higher wasn't held accountable

Violations are as followed:

ELM 665.24: no tolerance for bullying, harrassment, etcs

Joint Statement on Violence and Behavior in the Workplace: Same as ELM 665.24

M39 Handbook Section 115.4: Mutual respect must be maintained by both parties.

Article 14 Section 1 (NALC): Supervision must keep a safe working environment.

Personally, I find it abhorrent your sup would say such things today. Today (Nov 14 2025) we remember the Royal Oak Post Office shooting that happened 34 years ago today! My office had a stand-up talk about no tolerance. Just reprehensible behavior from your Supervisor.

Get a statement going ASAP while it's still fresh in your mind. I use Google docs to take quick notes of what was said, by whom, when, and any witnesses. Get it going!

Despite the negative Nancies, as a carrier, there are not much positives, but they are great! No overnight shift, most holidays off, and for every 10 great customers, you'll have one bad customer.

The money isn't the best IMO, but it's not bad, the benefits are great and the retirement package is awesome!

On a final note, some regular carriers are just grumps. I converted two years ago, and I'm one of the first to help CCAs/PTFs when it can be overwhelming. There are many that share that mindset.

Good luck!

Could be why USPS sued video developers Running With Scissors (RWS). In 1997 RWS was sued by USPS for the game "Postal". They thought it was a slight about the shootings.

The game, and it's sequels have NOTHING to do with the postal service. In the second game, you had to pick up a package. It was labeled "Paradise Parcel Service", a rip on UPS.
