    I received a letter on October 13th, it was dated September 23. I received a flier in February 23 for Christmas sales in 22. Before DeJoy, I would receive my mail within 3-4 days. This has actually caused problems with receiving and paying bills, as well as important tax and medically relevant deliveries. If he stays in till 2024, the ballots will be stacked under tables and rollers and not delivered. Hopefully the damage he has done will be reversible. He has to go!

Thats why if worst comes to worst Im gonna start looking into worker organizing and unionization efforts if it comes to it cause I need this job to pay for welding classes and rent and food

    I’m a new postal worker/mail carrier and we get paid by route not hourly and these route, I have been told (by the old timers), have drastically gone down in evaluation (how we get paid) ever since DeJoy came in. Scanners don’t work, hiccups in our pay, bottom tiered newcomers like myself get pressured and discouraged by management to do the job faster rather than better, shit 40+ year old trucks that break down every single day (I wish I was exaggerating on this one), promised new trucks for years now but some how deadline gets pushed back every year and the worst of all. We CANNOT STRIKE!!

    Since he took over there's been some serious undermining of the work force. There have been a lot of rural carriers who have simply not gotten paid for going on 3 pay periods now. The first time it happened it was attributed to some computer glitch. If that was the case, the post office has been in no hurry to fix it. Also rural carriers switched over to a decade long gestating digital pay system that was supposed to track the actual work done. It's implementation was contingent upon the carriers having access to all the data used to calculate their pay. Conveniently the USPS can't figure out how to do that and the report by the panel that created the software could only be gotten by the union through a FOIA request. But wouldn't you know it, 90% of it is blacked out as if it was a top secret weapons system.

Not getting them is still causing me grief, as in monetary loses, missed deadlines, etc. I've found a few "certified letters" in my mailbox and that's *not* how it's supposed to work! They've reported to Amazon that items were delivered to the locked parcel containers that have *not* been delivered and guess who pays for that? The PO is "untouchable" and for decades I'd agree - but sadly, that's not true any longer. He wants to run it into the ground so he can privatise it and use his company to swoop in and "save" the day. POS
