Dear Cliff Guffey,
I am writing this letter to inform you of how disappointed I am in you & the New Collective Bargaining Agreement.
As a disabled veteran it seems that the new CBA will destroy hopes of many disabled & non disabled veterans. You have now created an unlimited probation period for many people who fought for this country & gave us the many freedoms we all cherish. As a disabled Veteran it was very hard to go thru 90 days of probation. What will it bring now? You have now taken away the grievance process for them. But I am sure you will say: grievances can be filed and as soon as they are, the postal service will fire that veteran for some reason. How do I know this because it happened to me? I am proud to say the Local Union won me my job back. Had I been hired under your new CBA I would no longer have a job.
I hope you are proud of what you have done for the True Americans that have served this country!
Thanks again for the f%^&ing that they are about to recieve……

$14.60 x hour
$514.60 per hour….I think USPS will be out of money by July, 2011 NOT 2012.
Ellipses – 5 dots = fail. Just pitiful!
What has happened? Nobody can proof read anymore? I can’t even read the newspaper online without finding typos. Really goes to show why other countries excel at everything. Americans have gotten lazy….. at everything. Just pitiful!
Damn! I quit! I want to apply for one of those too!!!
“The starting pay for these positions will be 514.60 per hour.”
