chicargojoe did not mean joe d the joe in NY is Joe L and he never screws anyone, he is the best NBA and MVS Officer I have ever seen in the 30+ years driving for the service. One thing I do wish is that he runs for a DCs position and helps the whole country as he did us in the Northeast.

To worker (post1982), the new hires that you have are they pse's or full time regulars? Where is your facility located? I am in the NE region and I haven't heard of anyone of the 740 jobs being filled. I am a steward and haven't heard much on it. Any info would be appreciated. We are down 7 positions, 2 more out longterm, and they can't find anyone to hire. But there is OT after years of none and things are getting better. Keep the faith and good luck!

Worker for your information our facility is contracting out most of the heavy truck work and the mechanics are laughing about it cause they are filing greivances every time it happens the trucks are slowly deteriorating and even the contract shops can't keep up with it. The drivers DON'T want to lose OUR JOBS OR THE VMF'S.

They are hiring VMF personal off the street. We have 10 already, new hires. We have stopped half of our contracting. Our local is run by the truck drivers and does not care enough to let us now what is going on. The only info we get is from management. I have been a union member for twenty six years and if the drivers are going to be history are they going to take the VMF with them out of spite.

Joe you are right on the fuel delivery saving but the stations would be piled up and Monday's station overtime would go thru the roof!! We need to think outside the box. The plant closing was clever coverup to get rid of MVS and contract out more to the contractors which has to move the mail between plants.

if you cut back to 5 days the fuel savings, labor cost and wear an tear on the equiptment would be lower. You would keep your window clerks their on Saturday for the window and to sort the po box mail. They could Rent a pobox if you need that six day deliver.mvs could pickup the collection mail and empty equiptment on saturday because the clerks could sort the mail for saturday and get rid of the equiptment. They need to tighten their belt somewhere. Most business are close on Saturday anyway. You would put more people to work on Mondays to clean the extra mail and equipment up if needed.

HEY JOE -- wake up. UPS & FEDEX don't deliver mail. They deliver parcels and the equivalent of our prioity and express which people pay for. They don't deliver anything anywhere for $.44. We also do the last part of a lot of thier deliveries when it's their standard ground work. Many of the UPS guys are also out there making mucho OT. I got a package last week at 8:15 PM.
