S1457 contains a lot of inaccurate info.<BR/><BR/>Rurtal carriers don't fund their retirements -- USPS does. Rural Carriers contribute 8 tenths of 1% of their paycheck.<BR/><BR/>Contractors jeopardize Natl Security because they can be hired w/o a background check !! WRONG ! Contractors and subs can't get a badge or into a PO w/o a backgrounfd check. If happening, call the cops !<BR/><BR/>Contractors w/ winning bid "rarely perform the work themselves". Wrong again !! Contract mail dellivery persons usually have subs, but they also del the mail. Transportation mail contractors often sub-contract, but the drivers must also be cleared. If not, call a cop !<BR/><BR/>There is NO SUCH THING as territory "normally reserved for rural routes."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7899194278911671432.post-49836968069697448282007-06-09T21:48:00.000-05:002007-06-09T21:48:00.000-05:00I am a Mgmt Retiree who will write his Senators and Congressmen so they will give full support to the NALC and NRLCA in their fight to protect our Customers from the Contract Route Disease that Hdqtrs. is pushing on all of us. If this continues then we will see AlQaeda deliver the mail. What are Hdqrts people thinking? Stop the Contract Bus now!!! Harry L HarvillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
