Postmaster was probably right. Word of Thumb is the most they can decipher. All single syllable. Mangled vocabulary. Yep, a Postmaster.

postmaster /m2979 -- first, it's "rule" of thumb, and second, there is no such rule. There is no official or unofficial time allotment per accountable. There is a minimum time allotment on office time for accountables, but it is a minimum; if it takes longer, it takes longer. There is no official time allotment for anything on the street; it takes what it takes.

the word of thumb, is that you got 3 mins. per accoutable..

NECarrier /m2977 -- he might be; the answer is the same.

/m2975 and /m2976 Perhaps he is referring to the amount of time allowed per accountable piece during an inspection?

gnpostal66 /m2975 -- you get what it takes; there is no set time.

how much time do you get for each accountable piece of mail.

Need pictures of your hands! We are doing a video to expose the dept of labor for denying 50% of our carpal tunnel claims. It will be on youtube with your help. They can be artistically taken or in positions of stress as in doing your jobs. Scarred and cracked,bleeding and ashy, the poor hands we have after years paying it forward. Please send to pfmorris58@hotmail.com It is going to be an emotionally moving and meaningful video with your help.

Seems like we are spinning our wheels. Everybody is uptight about the new contract coming up. Why? USPS never honored any of the old ones. I am a union guy but I tell ya, the union had better get tough or screw them. Either go by the contract or or strike them bastards. If they don't abide by the contract does that negate all agreements? Enough is enough. I don't even get enough office time to do my job properly. They don't care what I leave behind just so long as I make my time. Customer suffers again. Toughen up union or screw you!!!

      Watched the video.Thanks again for your help.

mailman /m2967 -- yeah, I tried the link again and it doesn't work. I went to YouTube and searched for it and couldn't find it. I suspect that the USPS had it removed. Paranoid.

Try these:

Click on "Hardware"; the unit looks like the one I saw in the Youtube video, and the video said something about "the Marcus box", so I think this or something similar is probably what they are installing.

If you click on "ROI" (Return on Investment), you will find that they cost $29.95 a month each for the service. The calculation requires that you input a number of hours per week saved, but what if that is "zero"? LOL!

we were instructed not to tell anyone about those.. they can only track them at the main plant, us managers have no control over this at the station level.
