The managerial tactics described in this article are by no means confined to St Joseph MO. I am a clerk at the Processing and Distribution Center in Charlotte NC. Management is bombarded with grievances and EEO complaints to no avail. There is no regard for the contract or labor laws. Management's tactics can be described as nothing less than brutal. Supervisors conspire with labor specialist and create reasons for discipline. Those that pursue redress usually prevail but, some are so tired of the harrassment that they give up. Winning your grievance does not stop management from continuing its pursuit of miserey. Morale has never been lower and there has never been a more hostile working enviroment in my 23 years of service. I have a supervisor more akin to commadant of a concentration camp rather than a leader with human relation skills. Yet he is considered a shining star among his superiors. Our local step 2 designee has openly stated he is trying to fire as many regular carriers as possible. He further stated his only problem is that "part time flexibles grow up to be regulars." There is no place in any business for this mind set but, it has become the norm at the Postal Service. I would encourage all employees nationwide to write their respective congressional representatives and inform them of any hostile treatment in their local post office. It is time for the Postmaster General to be held accountable for the actions of his underlings.
