Funny Stuff from facebook Regarding the RRECS Q&A.

I like how they also didn't keep up with meetings and are now saying you will get misc. at mail count. NO this is to be recorded all year long!!!! Annoying all they get away with.
Oh yeah. We are supposed to be paid on the PREVIOUS 52 WEEKS of data save the very few things we are counting in this survey which will be averaged into our new evaluations. Where in the heck are the PREVIOUS 52 WEEKS of meeting times ?
 
I could use some convincing. Anything in particular you believe tips the scales towards mutual assured destruction?
How about the RADAR reports showing zero in a large percentage of routes?

Then, item A counts, no, wait, item A doesn't count, uh...it counts, oops, it doesn't!

This is so prevalent, it looks intentional.

Don't give us the initial study results, we will just throw them out. (Nothing to see here...Oh, look, a squirrel...!!!.)



Also, where is the ability to check the route data? I believe it was called transparency.

Exactly !!! Incrementalism. Starts out "small" and in different timelines depending upon the "action" or "process" that is a "fast one" pulled upon our craft that the damage is done. Recent example, first day of count is no UBBM counted from DPS, second day of count it's no UBBM AND no fwds. There are 100s if not 1000s of "things" where the PO has sidestepped, flat out violated, ignored, misinterpreted, unjustly mandated, etc. and "we" have just let it slide. We need and HAVE NEEDED FOR DECADES representation that does two things ; ONE - fights each and every violation as if THEIR very survival depended upon it because there is no "small" violation and TWO - spends the remaining time LOOKING for ANY violation because there are no "small" violations. Don't wait for me to come to you with something. You patrol as the contract police. Each and every office, each and every day !!!
The NRLCA has demonstrated that they are uninterested, unwilling, and unmotivated to reperesent the rank and file in any meaningful way.
 
The NRLCA consistently allows minor infractions or violations to the contract or procedures. Its like they feel that it's not a large enough to make an issue about and avoid confrontation. That's why our Craft is treated the way it is. Our leadership at the NRLCA needs to change their ways and demand 100% compliance. Become more intune with what is actually happening out here in the field. Become proactive and anticipate violations before they happen.
That won't ever happen.. at least in my lifetime!
 
"If" you took DPS to the street on Saturday, you would have to bring that business' mail back. If over 8 pieces, unscan. You're not getting credit for delivering the mail you held for the business. You're getting credit for having to pull the DPS, if over 8 pieces. ( the rest of the year)
During survey, you get either raw or unscan credit.
What proof is required for someone hitting unscanparcel???? Js.... why not just hit one when the mood strikes you???? I hit it for checks and pretty much anything in my parcel buggy without a scan.... but if you feel shorted elsewhere, why not just hit a few extra unscanparcels???? Wth????
 
So, according to the PO, you weren't doing something you SHOULD have been doing. They say, "sorry, too bad."

Now compare that to Managers not entering Stand Up talk times. They are Okay with just doing it for the 2 weeks and extrapolating.

Why can't that be done for UNSCANPARCEL for hold outs?
We're about half thru the "count" and we've gotten basically ZERO miscellaneous time.... ie, no safety talks, etc.... :unsure: 🤷‍♂️(n):poop::oops:
 
How about parcels we received that were forwarded from another route/office? We get NO CREDIT to deliver those parcels. The bar code shows the latest delivery time and place, but the route that the bar code is originally associated with get the delivery credit, just like parcels delivered by rcas helping on different routes give route credit to the route they are helping.
This "system" sucks in so many ways.... and just think of all the stuff we can't even see.... how bad does that suck???? :unsure:🤷‍♂️(n):poop::oops:

The way we're treated, why not?

We've had one 12 minute talk and it was in/on the misc. time column. But they are committed to next to no time in that column. My PM said that even HE cannot authorize time for that column but District has to do so. I explained to him that it was HIS call on the misc. time and NOT theirs. If they wanna' red line something , that's a different issue. I also explained to him that there are tasks and duties required by management that are either daily or weekly recurring that are particular to each office and it is a LOCAL call on whether or not to provide misc. time for those particular tasks / duties. I am on day three regarding one particular issue that we were always credited with ONE MINUTE for something required by management on Wednesdays. Our rural sup. was of the ABSOLUTELY NOT mindset while the PM , at least, said " let me email them and see," Well, he hasn't received a yes or no yet but he has relayed their rhetoric on just how to avoid or otherwise not allow this credit. I have informed him that this is not about the one minute but about explicitly or implicitly imposing ceilings, caps, limits, etc. on ANY category for credit during a mail count which is strictly prohibited per the "benchmark/ Eischen Award and that I would be filing on the issue which, in turn, would be class action. I did explain to my PM that I know they have told him that he is not allowed to make any decisions and yet, he gets reamed when things go wrong. Well, they go wrong BECAUSE someone OUTSIDE the office is making the decisions for him. I am looking for language that states things like this are HIS / LOCAL MANAGEMENT'S call and I've yet to find any. I'll keep looking. Time for me to stick up for the guy I argue with every morning. And I will do it, too and I told him that and said he knows I will. Point being , it's one minute and you'd think I was asking for 17 new lap top computers or something.
 
Don't jeopardize the parachute, dude.
Who's had any training on any of this nonsense.... truth be told, I'd be willing to bet NUMEROUS legit UNSCANPARCELS have been missed by carriers over the past year.... to include by me.... oh, and how many sets of boxholders, WSS, etc., etc.... have been forgotten.... all errors are in their favor, and they know it..... somebody should be threatening them with their wage theft, rather than the other way around.... jmho.... :unsure: 🤷‍♂️(n):poop::oops:
