Just wondering how many carriers that were happy when RRECS was implemented are now singing a different tune. The more crap that keeps evolving from this debacle, the more I long for a short manual count, two minutes per mile, two minutes per box, etc. If only the Post Office would have treated Amazon office carriers fairly, but I digress.
Hope everyone is happy with RRECS
- Thread starter RFD
- Start date
Yeah and now look they want us carriers to pay back money from adjustments that were done incorrectly.
I'm sorry it is your system and your flaw. Can't take it back. Either it needs to scrapped and start over or fixed within 6 months.
All -- Be sure to send X-President Dwyer a Christmas card ( or not! )
-- If so, be sure to include comments regarding RRECS.
-- As usual, the rural carriers are the ones having to clean up another mess created by the USPS and the NRLCA.
-- Anyone bother to contact the "expert" engineers who apparently were not able to foresee the problems that have popped up since RRECS was implemented. Those engineers will most likely have distanced themselves from the system. Just like Arbitrator Clarke, who washed his hands of the project when Dwyer opted to sign a MOU with the USPS instead of giving Clarke the opportunity to create a new compensation system to replace the evaluated system Dwyer so loved.

Content with it even knowing it has flaws . Way way better than old system .
Union should fight for some kind of compensation for people those who are stuck with above 48K though if they are not given any assistance

Not happy at all.
The cheating from the system itself and the cheating from carriers to gain High K Rts (it doesn't take 1 hour to load every day, and 1 hour to clear at EOD everyday either.)
I'm now a low H, and these carriers are a High K and they get back the same time as I do and get paid more. I run a second trip and 40 mins later they are still there on EOD. They clearly get less volume then I do. How is this fair?
And no I will not stoop down to doing what they are doing as most would say here.

It's fine. Better than the old system, and fairly less opaque.
It does require an adjustment of mentality, though, where instead of getting paid for what you do, you need to focus on doing what you get paid for. It removes some of the incentives of the evaluated system.
Things were going to come to a head, eventually. Ghost town Amazon offices with a bunch of blown out 48Ks wasn't a sustainable model to maintain the 5 hour-a-day 46K offices.

I’m going to argue that had your route been counted at anytime with the old system you would have gone up as well. The problem with the “old system” was they delayed counting routes for YEARS.
Not doing a count was more the problem than the old count system.
That's what I dislike about these people with RRECS. Yeah if we did a count in 5 year span you would have gone up (maybe not as much as RRECS, but you would have gotten some of the money you deserve) Instead we didn't and then when COVID they argued the wrong thing on it, and we lost that step 4.
The Union still employs the engineer used on the panel.

we went from delivering packages for free, to delivering mail for free insteadUSPS is happy with it... saved them a LOT of money.... and made a lot of carriers get the hail out.... I've read of many on here who said the hail with it when their 100-mile K Route got chopped down to an H Route....
Yep mail is worthless.

Why would the USPS design a system to make mail worthless when that was once rumored to be the primary mission of USPS.... altho, I'm in complete agreement with your opinion that is what has happened....

I noticed many others such as @Gotrope went at or near the same time as RRECS implementation... those in the know got the hail out....
Yeah, now that I'm not socking $$$$ money into TSP and so forth, I get more deposited into my checking account each month than when I was working....
