Curtailed Mail, PS Form 1571, and You

Michael, January 25, 2024September 30, 2024

At least 1 Fresno Installation station on 1-25-2024 has seemingly curtailed Fresno County Election Mail. That’s right, management types from what I am hearing, allegedly told the carriers of their zone/station to curtail, or outright not to deliver Fresno County Election Mail.

https://apps.nlrb.gov/MyAccount/#/ChargeAndPetition/FilingType I know you’re saying what does the National Labor Relations Board have to do with “my” OWCP injury. I will use the word allegedly in this example, because I was not there to personally witness the actual National Labor Relation Act violation. The injured carrier, contacted me to find…

The Lack of Candor

Michael, December 17, 2023September 30, 2024

Why, why do some choose not to be honest with what is currently going on? Why, why be disrespectful and lash out, when confronted with the TRUTH? Why is the go to complaint that (insert the City Carrier Advocate’s Name) is always being “difficult” or “disrespectful” when all the advocate…
