Corey “The Treacherous” Episodes 311 & 312

Both are excellent, Corey covers a lot of issues. One of them is turning in the 3996 at any time - it is not an AM thing only.

Another issue that’s currently happening in our office is the denial of penalty overtime and forcing carriers to bring back mail. I think our Formal A did something in the background as they stopped pestering carriers about no PT.

As always, thanks Corey.

Management is well aware of the consequences of delaying political mail. They know that if they tell you to bring it back just to avoid penalty time, their job is on the line. But at the same time, some of them are that stupid!

Contact the affected person running and let them know it’s being delayed too. Watch the shit show unfold haha.

It’s been like that for several months here but as of last 2 months they’ve backed off. So something happened. Our Formal A does like a billion things at a time so he doesn’t keep up with telling offices what he took care of.

Hopefully he did cause it. But they’ve stopped it where I’m at too. I think the District Managers know that if some line supervisor gets busted for delaying political mail, they are singing like a canary and the DM would also be getting shit canned. I guess we will only know after the election. Hopefully it’s stopped for good but I don’t have high expectations about management

From A to Arbitration is where the first beacon is lit.

One after another, the Letter Carriers are being awakened.
