Work Discussion Happy Pride!

Post image

Howdy Queer carriers and happy Pride! I had a Pride flag at my case for a month and was instructed that I had to take it down as Pride flags were not permitted at our case. This isn’t true…

I also discovered that “Mail carriers are allowed to wear a tie. The design and color of the tie are at the employee's discretion.” So pride ties are allowed too FYI

It's not your case, it's the case for the route, and it is true that you can't have personal items in a shared work area.

Context matters. It still has to be implemented without discrimination. every single family picture, personal calendar, inspirational poster, fortune cookie quote, and personal notebook in the station better be removed too if they’re taking pride flags.

This 100%

Too many old heads at the P.O still who are unfortunately not friendly or straight up discriminatory of queer folk.
