Join BFN’s mailing list and watch the latest zoom meeting

It is up to you, the due paying member to become active, and be the change that you want. Always remember you are the NALC. Join up with the BFN, or a least give them a listen to see if it is something that you can get behind. Is Tyler Vasseur our work generation of Vincent Sombrotto? It’s too early to tell, but Tyler kicked ass at the convention in Boston. Speaking truth to the establishment. He should get the recognition he deserves.

Here is the latest contract information, and where we are heading from NALC President Brian Renfroe.

Share this with our brothers and sisters, so that they will know where we are at in our contract negotiations.

Here is the first episode on the 6-Day count. We all are going to be harassed and abused by management even more so now. Education and knowledge will help get your route to what it should be an 8 hour route without you starting up to 30 minutes early, working through breaks, and lunch just to make managements DOIS projections. Remembers we have multiple settled grievances won that management can’t hold carriers to their incorrect DOIS numbers. The controlling document of the time you need to carry every day is the PS Form 3996.

Hopefully, the CLC will start selling shirts, hats, and other gear. Maybe even one of those huge 40oz insulated cups. LOL

Here in Fresno, management types seem to like to complain that some stewards are being “difficult”. To this I say we are the least “difficult” bunch around, if you treat the City Letter Carrier humanely.

Remember that nlrb.gov, osha.gov, dol.gov are some of the many agencies that are there to help you with the abuse you receive from management type and management type witnesses.

Go Go Chiefs the Super Bowl Champions, isn’t Chiefs red so beautiful. Winning the Super Bowl 3 times in a row will be a great achievement.
