This Episode of Parcels of Knowledge is about how The Postal Service has paid 1 Billion Dollars in Grievance Payouts! Think about that. While you’re out there grinding in the elements, fighting for every click of overtime, management is treating our National Agreement like a suggestion—and they’re using a billion dollars of funds to pay the 'penalty' for their own arrogance. Is it incompetence, or is it a deliberate strategy to break the spirit of the City Letter Carrier? Today, we’re breaking down where that money went, and why it’s happening. Buckle up. We’re going into the numbers, and it’s not going to be pretty.

In this episode of Parcels of Knowledge the Roseville Wreckingball talks about two particular strategies he has honed in order to cancel your debt to the service in letter of demand cases. These procedural defenses for stopping the deduction of your debt, even in cases where you truly owe the service, can be attributed to none other than managements own laziness and failures. They are going to be wanting their money back, but here we have two ways to say no, even if the math is potentially right.
