That's crazy! Do you have any rmpo's? I'd be voting no on that garbage contract if I was still a carrier. Fortunately I switched crafts a month ago which gave me an instant 4 dollar an hour raise at the lowest step as a clerk. Much easier job and better pay.
@@karfam33it’s all over except your office which your lucky. My office has 9 overpaid inadequate inexperienced supervisors, a manager getting postmaster pay and a postmaster who’s clueless, none of them know how to staff a shift properly of clerks to move mail or get the mail carrier routed out in a timely fashion to get the carriers out on the street for delivery in their very timed tour of duty to which clerks aren’t timed. All management doesn’t is harass and treat the carriers who are the. Read and butter and face of this organization like shit for very underpaid wages while we fix all their problems as the harass and fear drive us. They need to cut the supervision, harassment and focus on workplace health issues because most buildings are old filthy nothing works from heat, a/c, water drainage or equipment because it’s all going into the pockets of management in bonuses for the money saved to not do these things. It’s the worst and management needs to be forced out and cut back this would save huge money waste.
The postal service was working just fine until the folks in DC decided to charge the postal service in advance for employees they haven't hired yet for those invisible retirements and taxes that don't exist. Mind boggling.....shows that the feds want money to spend before the people are hired to earn the tax dollars. Bad economics. Plus DeJoy has dismattled all sorting facilities across the nation in each state and has chose to send all mail to Nashville then back out. Stupid reasoning, this doesn't make sense. DeJoy is dismattling the Postal Service to do harm to close it so his transporation company can take over, or he is doing it to raise postal pricing or he has done this to undermine the elections. DEJOY NEEDS TO GO WITH MUSK TO MARS
@@katybell9612I've voted trump 3 times and live in Greensboro just like dejoy. He got his position from TRUMP because he held a huge fundraiser in town back when trump was running, so trump gifted him the job.
USPS was considered essential during COVID. Meaning they are open for business and fully operational. Yet, there are Postal employees who got approved and got debt forgiveness with PPP. Explain that?
It's interesting to see Goldman, who generally is in denial about crime rates in New York, admit that New York has the highest crime rates with regard to postal service.
Electric vehicles and its infrastructure was a waste of money . Granted in some areas it would be beneficial to a certain extent. But all that money spent on those electric contracts could’ve gone back into the wages of the workers . But of course politicians need to get some of that money action in some way .
Millions and millions in noncompliance between unions and usps. And that is less than it actually should be. Employees do not file as often as they should.
How much of this loss is due to contract violations with the unions? Where im at we file tons of grievances amounting thousands of dollars due to incompetence
@Malignantt1 same for me I'm the president of my local office and in 3 months I think we had almost 8 thousand dollars worth of payouts that were unnecessary and I represent only 9 full time regulars
"The USPS is ineffective " - conservatives who elected a man who openly does not care, has investments on an opposing company(Conflict of interest) and thinks USPS should be ran like a business, despite being a service.
My main problem with this is it's out of touch with the American people. My mailman is amazing (I give him gamer fuel monster and potato chips). Can't say the same about DeJoy.
This should have never been turned into a profit making government agency. Blame the President Bushes for that. You never see Congress telling any other agency they have to break even or make a profit. We deliver 167 million addresses daily.
Giving away the free boxes isn't helping the post office some people are ordering them to use for other things , I've seen people on DIY videos use them for all kinds of things and they say there free and you can even order them online and they'll bring them right to you... I used to be a carrier and this one women ordered a bunch of boxes and next thing I know she moved so she used those free boxes ro move... STOP THE FREE BOXES just charge what you pay instead
When I turned of age and was on my own there was some thefts from mail boxes way back then too. I had paid for a Post Office Box and that box was under $20 now it's $91. A thirty few year increase of keeping up with a projected future. But it was a big box on the bottom and then I was exchanged to a very small box and now it's up high.
LeJoy's background is being certified accountant. In my experience CPAs make the worst leaders and managers. Then again nothing ever changes with the USPS.
They tell them to get cluster box because it pays rural carriers less to deliver to them. We depend on mailbox, mailbox pays out more money to rural carrier. That’s another way they cutting our pay.
The problem is that legislators like Krishna and others have no financial background to speak or understand what it takes to turn around a massive sinking ship like the USPS, which was for over several years, why people keep voting for people who cannot help the taxpayer or can understand simple P&L or balance sheet.
I think paperless billing, statements, documents, etc. has caused a huge profit loss for the P.O. But it's convenient, cuts down on waste, and saves trees from being cut down. It is a fact that post office is essential to the function of our society. There are millions of people whos only means of communication is the mail. Hopefully something can be done to remedy this catastrophe.
They cut routes thinking they will pay regulars less. But then they hire more people and need more new vehicles, mercedez. Now seniors have old LLV’s that is no longer safe
That’s true, but the postal service also has a mandate to deliver to every single address every single day regardless of cost efficiency. When the other delivery companies deem a delivery cost ineffective they hand it off the the postal service
They also have to do things like deliver certain types of mail at a lower rate but treat them the same way they treat their premium services, ie political mail, free matter for the handicapped or blind etc.
I have moved lots of times and have lived with family before. Never had this problem till last year when I moved and filled out change of address form and ended up getting my Dad's mail at my new address. Found out that the sorting is done by the first 3 letters of a persons first name. In my family we are all J. W. initials., My first four letters of my first name in JACQ and my Dad's in JACK and the mail is sorted by the first THREE letters NOW. This made my Dad's bills late and I had to PAY for the mail to get sent to him (in another state) overnight, plus I had to END my change of address to end this problem.
When dejoy first came into office I was optimistic but how can anyone call this successful service standards have been lowered and the deficit has gone up unacceptable
He’s been a piece if crap since he got in. He took out sorting machines costing millions if dollars being wasted and has slowed the mail so that you are lucky if you get mail. WV has no sorting machines and mail comes out if pa. He also has a contract business and has siphoned off millions from the American tax payers! The cost goes up every year w/ no increased benefits. The post office personnel do the best they can w/ no support from their staff at the top.
Mr. comer you’re a liar. I live in Atlanta and the people here in Atlanta and the counties outside of Atlanta. Can’t get their mail in their timely manner. The employees have been beaten down by Mr. Dejoy they’re no longer the happy people I knew.
Needs a revamp, service is horrible and prices need to go down, not up and all the ones who discarded voting ballots should be Fired. Them and the Board of Elections workers who admitted to it! Mail in Ballots should have bar codes and in person voting should remain close to home. This didn’t happen in Texas according to news reports, people had to go 20 miles from home to vote.🤬🚮
Too much junk mail! How can the postal service stop filling my mailbox with all the credit card invites and all the insurance invites. Also Direct TV and other paid TV invites. I don't want anymore junk mail!
Deborah. Those companies spend a ton of money for advertisement to be mailed out Door to Door. This is how Postal workers get paid….. Not by your Tax dollars. Just throw it in the garbage
Mr. Dejoy, your administration has ill informed you. Try reviewing the over 500 lawsuits against one PO. The culture is a problem. Praised employees work above and beyond. You would benefit well from ridding the postal service of administration employees that are causing the expense.HR ignores, falsify, and ignore. I for one had 15.00 dollar paycheck due to the vindictiveness of ill all management and the 20 dayl ate response from HR to remedy the issue. Stop ignoring these sins Mr. Dejoy. I have you know that most regular employees know the reason for the p.o. Failures. You should get a new reporting officer. Rid the place of incompetancy. I follow the PrC on postal service issues and I am tired of you stubbling words and looking and seemingly dumb founded about the. Obvious problems. I thought you were intuitive but the numbers are obvious. Mr. Dejoy look at the pass problems. Serious ethical problems. Ill management causes debt as well to the post office. Get it right Mr. Dejoy, if your not informed properly and honestly by your staff then replace or do away with that position.
The post office will never recover thank goodness for email and we the costumer can now pay our bills online so we don't have to worry about our checks beaning stoling
How about instead of complaining about how the post office is functioning, and sending billions of dollars to another country to fund a war that we do not need, we send some of our funds to the United States Postal Service to bail them out!

Table 2 carriers are not overpaid. They should however offer a buyout to the top step carriers to get em off the books and replace with younger cheaper labor. It's simple economics. Also proper staffing to eliminate ot would be a start.
I don’t know how you think we are over paid? We start out at 19 an hour…you might need to check out our pay scale if you haven’t already. Our wages aren’t competitive. Unless you are referring to management which starts at 75K a year which is more than a top level carrier makes.
Anything private would be a disaster worse than what is going on now. And to think labor is overpaid is just ignorant. The typical anti union retieric. The post office needs far less management. Around 40-50% need to be canned immediately. The rest need to be trained properly and need to have an actual function. Most sit around with their hands in their pockets. The people that touch the mail are the ones that make this service run. However it has been micromanaged to near destruction. Congress certainly hasn't helped us but to be so blind as to think labor is overpaid and all this managerial fat that does absolutely nothing is OK is just moronic.
I think that overall the USPS does a pretty good job given the enormity and complexity of the organization. The problem is the retirement benefits and pay that they pay out and the low cost of mail and parcel delivery compared to other developed nations.
The USPS isn't good at negotiating contractors and their costs. Only a real CEO could do that. They overpay for vehicles and other services because they're a quasi-government agency full of overpaid bureaucrats.
I worked at a postal facility for 17 days before Christmas many years ago and postal employees were throwing mail all over the facility and on the floor and just shrugging it off when I inquired about it.

That's crazy! Do you have any rmpo's? I'd be voting no on that garbage contract if I was still a carrier. Fortunately I switched crafts a month ago which gave me an instant 4 dollar an hour raise at the lowest step as a clerk. Much easier job and better pay.

@@karfam33it’s all over except your office which your lucky. My office has 9 overpaid inadequate inexperienced supervisors, a manager getting postmaster pay and a postmaster who’s clueless, none of them know how to staff a shift properly of clerks to move mail or get the mail carrier routed out in a timely fashion to get the carriers out on the street for delivery in their very timed tour of duty to which clerks aren’t timed. All management doesn’t is harass and treat the carriers who are the. Read and butter and face of this organization like shit for very underpaid wages while we fix all their problems as the harass and fear drive us. They need to cut the supervision, harassment and focus on workplace health issues because most buildings are old filthy nothing works from heat, a/c, water drainage or equipment because it’s all going into the pockets of management in bonuses for the money saved to not do these things. It’s the worst and management needs to be forced out and cut back this would save huge money waste.

The postal service was working just fine until the folks in DC decided to charge the postal service in advance for employees they haven't hired yet for those invisible retirements and taxes that don't exist. Mind boggling.....shows that the feds want money to spend before the people are hired to earn the tax dollars. Bad economics. Plus DeJoy has dismattled all sorting facilities across the nation in each state and has chose to send all mail to Nashville then back out. Stupid reasoning, this doesn't make sense.
DeJoy is dismattling the Postal Service to do harm to close it so his transporation company can take over, or he is doing it to raise postal pricing or he has done this to undermine the elections.
DEJOY NEEDS TO GO WITH MUSK TO MARS
He did not shut down all but 1 facility for the whole nation. Stop being dramatic and spreading misinformation

It's interesting to see Goldman, who generally is in denial about crime rates in New York, admit that New York has the highest crime rates with regard to postal service.
Never should mandated electric. That cost money
Electric vehicles are not the damn problem. Jesus.
Electric vehicles and its infrastructure was a waste of money . Granted in some areas it would be beneficial to a certain extent. But all that money spent on those electric contracts could’ve gone back into the wages of the workers . But of course politicians need to get some of that money action in some way .
That was Biden
Millions and millions in noncompliance between unions and usps. And that is less than it actually should be. Employees do not file as often as they should.
This guy keeps using the excuse that it was bad before he got in there which is why he was supposed to be in there !!??
Exactly he is admitting that he has failed. He was hired to fix things.
We, the Postal Service needs to get back to the basics! Customer Service is key.
How much of this loss is due to contract violations with the unions? Where im at we file tons of grievances amounting thousands of dollars due to incompetence
I looked it up, and according to Google, that's not public info. My office also has a ton of unnecessary grevences, so I expect to be huge
@ oh i guarantee it. The overtime violations are ridiculous at my station. Im the steward, i would know. Like thousands of dollars.
@Malignantt1 same for me I'm the president of my local office and in 3 months I think we had almost 8 thousand dollars worth of payouts that were unnecessary and I represent only 9 full time regulars
Going to the Post office is, a nightmare !!!!!!!!
"The USPS is ineffective " - conservatives who elected a man who openly does not care, has investments on an opposing company(Conflict of interest) and thinks USPS should be ran like a business, despite being a service.
My main problem with this is it's out of touch with the American people. My mailman is amazing (I give him gamer fuel monster and potato chips). Can't say the same about DeJoy.
This should have never been turned into a profit making government agency. Blame the President Bushes for that. You never see Congress telling any other agency they have to break even or make a profit. We deliver 167 million addresses daily.
The Bush's were not in congress or the White House when the USPS was created.
Giving away the free boxes isn't helping the post office some people are ordering them to use for other things , I've seen people on DIY videos use them for all kinds of things and they say there free and you can even order them online and they'll bring them right to you... I used to be a carrier and this one women ordered a bunch of boxes and next thing I know she moved so she used those free boxes ro move... STOP THE FREE BOXES just charge what you pay instead
When I turned of age and was on my own there was some thefts from mail boxes way back then too. I had paid for a Post Office Box and that box was under $20 now it's $91. A thirty few year increase of keeping up with a projected future. But it was a big box on the bottom and then I was exchanged to a very small box and now it's up high.
LeJoy's background is being certified accountant. In my experience CPAs make the worst leaders and managers. Then again nothing ever changes with the USPS.

What comer means is lets just privitize the post office and take away your pensions
They tell them to get cluster box because it pays rural carriers less to deliver to them. We depend on mailbox, mailbox pays out more money to rural carrier. That’s another way they cutting our pay.
Stop night delivery
The problem is that legislators like Krishna and others have no financial background to speak or understand what it takes to turn around a massive sinking ship like the USPS, which was for over several years, why people keep voting for people who cannot help the taxpayer or can understand simple P&L or balance sheet.
I think paperless billing, statements, documents, etc. has caused a huge profit loss for the P.O. But it's convenient, cuts down on waste, and saves trees from being cut down. It is a fact that post office is essential to the function of our society. There are millions of people whos only means of communication is the mail. Hopefully something can be done to remedy this catastrophe.
Well, too, options are privatized or full funding from Congress, and neither is very popular, tho

Congress needs to look in the mirror and address the 36 trillion of debt that the country is in.
They cut routes thinking they will pay regulars less. But then they hire more people and need more new vehicles, mercedez. Now seniors have old LLV’s that is no longer safe
The USPS has a congressional mandate and law to be self-supporting without taxpayers expense.
That’s true, but the postal service also has a mandate to deliver to every single address every single day regardless of cost efficiency. When the other delivery companies deem a delivery cost ineffective they hand it off the the postal service
They also have to do things like deliver certain types of mail at a lower rate but treat them the same way they treat their premium services, ie political mail, free matter for the handicapped or blind etc.
Congress should ask how we are 39 trillion in debt? Your in charge all right! Yet putting America at Risk!
He needs to be replaced on January 21, 2025
I have moved lots of times and have lived with family before. Never had this problem till last year when I moved and filled out change of address form and ended up getting my Dad's mail at my new address. Found out that the sorting is done by the first 3 letters of a persons first name. In my family we are all J. W. initials., My first four letters of my first name in JACQ and my Dad's in JACK and the mail is sorted by the first THREE letters NOW. This made my Dad's bills late and I had to PAY for the mail to get sent to him (in another state) overnight, plus I had to END my change of address to end this problem.
It's done by the first 4 letters of the last name. I have been a carrier for 27 years.
The first thing that should be done is to cut the postmaster general's authority into multiple postal districts and postmasters.

He’s been a piece if crap since he got in. He took out sorting machines costing millions if dollars being wasted and has slowed the mail so that you are lucky if you get mail. WV has no sorting machines and mail comes out if pa. He also has a contract business and has siphoned off millions from the American tax payers! The cost goes up every year w/ no increased benefits. The post office personnel do the best they can w/ no support from their staff at the top.

Mr. comer you’re a liar. I live in Atlanta and the people here in Atlanta and the counties outside of Atlanta. Can’t get their mail in their timely manner. The employees have been beaten down by Mr. Dejoy they’re no longer the happy people I knew.
Needs a revamp, service is horrible and prices need to go down, not up and all the ones who discarded voting ballots should be Fired. Them and the Board of Elections workers who admitted to it! Mail in Ballots should have bar codes and in person voting should remain close to home. This didn’t happen in Texas according to news reports, people had to go 20 miles from home to vote.🤬🚮

Mr. Dejoy, your administration has ill informed you. Try reviewing the over 500 lawsuits against one PO. The culture is a problem. Praised employees work above and beyond. You would benefit well from ridding the postal service of administration employees that are causing the expense.HR ignores, falsify, and ignore. I for one had 15.00 dollar paycheck due to the vindictiveness of ill all management and the 20 dayl ate response from HR to remedy the issue. Stop ignoring these sins Mr. Dejoy. I have you know that most regular employees know the reason for the p.o. Failures. You should get a new reporting officer. Rid the place of incompetancy. I follow the PrC on postal service issues and I am tired of you stubbling words and looking and seemingly dumb founded about the. Obvious problems. I thought you were intuitive but the numbers are obvious. Mr. Dejoy look at the pass problems. Serious ethical problems. Ill management causes debt as well to the post office. Get it right Mr. Dejoy, if your not informed properly and honestly by your staff then replace or do away with that position.

The USPS needs a private sector CEO. Not a bureucrat. Raise postal rates and trim down the overpaid labor force for starters.
Table 2 carriers are not overpaid. They should however offer a buyout to the top step carriers to get em off the books and replace with younger cheaper labor. It's simple economics. Also proper staffing to eliminate ot would be a start.
Elon and Vivek will find the waste fraud and abuse in multiple agencies
I don’t know how you think we are over paid? We start out at 19 an hour…you might need to check out our pay scale if you haven’t already. Our wages aren’t competitive. Unless you are referring to management which starts at 75K a year which is more than a top level carrier makes.
Anything private would be a disaster worse than what is going on now. And to think labor is overpaid is just ignorant. The typical anti union retieric. The post office needs far less management. Around 40-50% need to be canned immediately. The rest need to be trained properly and need to have an actual function. Most sit around with their hands in their pockets. The people that touch the mail are the ones that make this service run. However it has been micromanaged to near destruction. Congress certainly hasn't helped us but to be so blind as to think labor is overpaid and all this managerial fat that does absolutely nothing is OK is just moronic.
@@adamd76578 say it louder for the bozos in the back
I think that overall the USPS does a pretty good job given the enormity and complexity of the organization. The problem is the retirement benefits and pay that they pay out and the low cost of mail and parcel delivery compared to other developed nations.
The USPS isn't good at negotiating contractors and their costs. Only a real CEO could do that. They overpay for vehicles and other services because they're a quasi-government agency full of overpaid bureaucrats.
I worked at a postal facility for 17 days before Christmas many years ago and postal employees were throwing mail all over the facility and on the floor and just shrugging it off when I inquired about it.
