    We have people at my office that have 2ND JOBS!!!!! Because we cant pay bills on what we are making now so we work all day then go work a graveyard shift after working all day this is ridiculous. And some and lowering what they are putting into retirement because they need it now just to get by. These people dont care that we are ALLL struggling and they are not so it does not affect them at all

    Pressure bust pipes. The no strike clause is what's keeping this shit from moving and they're taking advantage of it cause they know that employees are too pussy to take action. I guess yall will have to wait until automobiles have to be repo'd from the jobsite parking lot and your homes to be foreclosed on before you grow the balls to wanna make a move. Just let me know when you're ready...shits fuckin overdue. Either you're with the shit or you're not.

    Meanwhile clerks getting 100% COLAs and making like $4 more an hour than us at the equivalent step if you’re on the low end of things. They are also negotiating a second contract in September in the time it’s taking us to do one under Renfroe.. we are almost as bad off as Mail handlers at this point lmao.

    This isn't great for the carriers but I don't feel badly for most of them. They spend their careers running for management and skipping lunch and working off the clock in order to get done on time. They work outside of their restrictions, which is another peeve of mine.
    Why fight for carriers' rights when they won't even stand up for their own rights?

    I just found out today they merged our smaller branch with a larger one. They supposedly sent a letter out in September (that nobody got) telling us that we had 30 days to respond to this merger or else it would just happen on its own. Fast forward its june now and we are just finding this out. Call me a scab or whatever but im done paying for them to not listen to us. I called the NBA and they said well if you didnt respond to the letter its too late now. I said dont you think something like deleting an entire branch a letter should be sent certified? Or at least a phone call could have been made for a response? Nope . Now are dues are going up and our representation is over an hour away. Im done.

    I don’t understand why more employees don’t care about this. I routinely talk to multiple employees about all the BS we are putting up with in regards to our pay and 90+% could care less. This will go on another year if there’s no consequences for Renfroe. We need more action from employees tho. At this point just do a national 3 day sick call in and by day 4 usps will have to give in and grant a new contract.

    it’s funny though, there was just a meeting/training that happened recently with management that was talking about focusing on having carriers bring in leads to the post office to generate more revenue, but when it comes to getting us our contract and our pay increases it doesn’t seem like it’s much of a concern to them. I’d love to do more for an employer that’s looking out for us but come on, some of us are struggling out here and you’re asking us to help you make more money. Seems a little tone deaf to me.

I really hope that he is getting rich from this video , because that would be a good reason for putting out this mess . Neither side has any real leverage once it goes to arbitration and it sounds like he understands that . But brah , "you got to know when to hold em" , that's all I got and I'm out 🎭

    The longer you work at USPS, the more incentive you may feel you need to stay. Unless you get out before you make regular.
    Yeah, part timers are massively over-worked (or under-worked in certain offices) and underpaid, but when I started, my paychecks immediately doubled over retail.
    May not feel right, but most places pay long-term employees more than new hires.
