m41 624.1 "arrange the parcels in order of delivery... ". This is under the title of Parcel Post delivery (PP). Around here we get up to 70 parcels a day for each route due to the fact there isnt stores in the area for miles and miles and most people order everything and if we didnt put the parcels in order delivery it would be frustrating to say the least.

Sorry everyone - these spammers are getting more aggressive and harder to control. Thanks for the headsup Union Carrier.

Fellow PTFS, please join me in renouncing the leadership of the NALC ... I recently filed a DOL charge against the union because they are not following article twelve by allowing the postal service to promote some ptf letter carriers, particularly in larger offices, and by preventing other ptfs from assuming full time status, particularly in smaller offices ... They are doing so under the false umbrella of the maximization memorandum, which they claim supercedes article twelve, particularly section 7.3.B. ... By not allowing PTFs in smaller offices to become full time, any residual vacancies are being withheld for the benefit of soon to be displaced full time flexibles in the larger offices or if the newly created full time flexible bids on a vacant assignment, then the newly created full time regular position ... This practice is fundamentally unfair and non-contractual, even though your union steward and his B-team buddies may try to convince you otherwise ... Just look at the clerk craft ... They are not doing the same thing

Hey Dog- clerk craft is exactly doing the same thing, holding vacant positions for clerks displaced.

Yes, they are withholding vacancies, however, the clerk craft is not maximizing ptf clerks into full time regular clerks like the carrier craft in the Northeast is sucessfully doing right now ... This is because Article twelve supercedes article 7, and the clerk craft understands that

I would rather be a ptf now, rather than bottom regular just waiting for fss to excess out. Besides I love my union support

and I would rather make regular and take my chances on moving to another office....as least you would have the 40 hour guarantee...and not the 2 hours a paycheck or is it 4....either way bites....they currently have 3 open routes ptf's are holding down...no converting ptf's here...what was I thinking transferring after 19 years in the same office..

maybe the early outs will be good enough to get a lot of the regulars to go.........maybe FSS won't hurt us as bad as they say.........

I couldn't imagine having a two or four hour week. I cannot remember having a week less than 50. I can see why you would be frustrated.
