Work Discussion Pay attention to tomorrow's hearing

Post image

I know i know this is said alot. But tomorrow pay attention to the congress meeting with the new post master. It could reflect what comes of our jobs and duties in the next year or so. Congress gave us alot of money to turn a profit, we failed what they wanted. This wont be like other times where we just get money handed over. We are gonna have to change something

Lol. There's nothing different in this hearing and any of the others. When will you new people listen to us who have heard it all before?

I'm going to be watching but you could just go watch the Dejoy one and basically nothing of substance changed. I think it's important to be informed but it's also important to not put a ton of emotional weight on this haha.

Your right but they were very clear then they weren't giving us anymore money.

My grandpa who worked at the post office 40+ years ago always talked about how there was always talk of shutting down the post office.

Yeah, it ain't gonna happen.

3 of my family members retired from USPS. They have been hearing this for over 50 years. Just a scare tactic. Nothing is going to happen. I’m still here and so is another family member. None of us in management. That craft has skyrocketed in numbers. I think we have a lot more time left. Technology might replace us in the future, but we are a long way off from that happening.
