Round 1: Canada Post Workers Fight Forced Overtime

[ashjacknewguy]

CPC wants to make this the norm. Profit through cutbacks. Just as they are trying to force STDP on us. I believe they are running us "1st tier" workers into the ground to make way for tier 2. A sister in our station walked out on Friday. Carriers are turning on each other , squabbling over tie-outs and flyer counts. Makes me sick. We have to stick together. I am documenting events in my depot since this insanity began hoping it will be useful in court someday. Reclaiming the $2b on our backs!

I watched this after my husband (who is a letter carrier) told me about it. I promptly wrote an email (with a link to your vid) to 23 friends and sent the same email to 29 Facebook friends. I encouraged my friends to forward my email to everyone they know. I have friends in The Netherlands, Hawaii, USA, across Canada. If they send my email to 20-30 people that's a ton of publicity. I see the problems my husband has with his back and knees because of working conditions. You have my support...

love the effort Depot 3. Lots of people in Edmonton would like a Postal job. Keep fighting and maybe those jokers will help you by hiring.

Why do the Conservatives do everything they can to keep young workers from getting a job? Hard to figure it out???

Just saw the last line in your video. Please remember that 'we' are the union. We must come together on our work floors in order to be heard. Our union leadership can only do so much, the greatest impact comes from those of us on the work floor banding together and standing strong. Solidarity!

[MrWiderschein]

@nastynan66

You are absolutely right, we, the workers, are the union. We can not rely on anyone to change our circumstances for us, change can only come from the workfloor standing together. If the the union leadership (elected officers, executive) supports the workfloor our efforts become that much more powerful. Solidarity.

Well done Depot 3! It is such a shame that the corp has forced us to this point!
