Postal worker's claims of retaliation upheld

A small victory -- that's how one veteran sees his award from the U.S. Postal Service. A judge agreed a supervisor retaliated against him after he alleged discrimination. This updates an investigation about complaints at the Interstate 85 postal plant.

The only thing the post office is disappointed about is that they got caught. Unfortunately, the other 10000 times a day this happens goes unreported.

Thank god these kind of Supervisors are being exposed and disciplined. We work to hard to be bullied around and harassed.

@Darth apply your "um,no." to your childish, idiotic rant. You have been in every workplace to make your determination? No, you have not. You are stating an opinion based on your experience, and it sounds like "sour grapes" experience.

I have worked and managed in several industries, and there are plenty of "tough gigs" out there. The diff is, these guys have good pay, good working conditions and GREAT benefits. Cry a river to someone else. Don't take all the benes if you won't work.

@kenfo0 Um, no. Postal workers are the most harrassed, followed, timed, watched, picked with, needled, pressured employees I have ever seen. They slow down or bullshit or call off because thats the only way they can fight back. When they speak out, upper bosses sic the low-bosses on you .

In fact, Letter carriers are a step away from violence everyday. They argue and fight with bosses about cheating them out of overtime, vacation time, sick time and a host of shit the publice cant know.

It's so hard to know the truth today. I've know scumbag employees, and seen scumbag bosses. I've seen the avg, lazy a-holes bitch about all bosses....because they are lazy.  Most "workers" today don't do shit. Most "supervisors" do NOT supervise. Too little chance for promotion, too little discipline of the worst employees, lazy, unfair supervisors, too much bearing false witness, etc etc. You all watched Wallstreet and parroted "greed is good"...until YOU are it's victim. Grow up.

Why do postal workers go postal??

[slunacourtier]

What are they serious? They think that race and veteran's status isn't true in what happened? It's so obvious! How did they find a gray area for that situation?

[starkeep2]

not one mention of electronic harrassment being used there against employees particularly disabled vets. my eeo complaint has gone on for yrs.

[bantuchef46]

Wow, Who is the Attorney that handled this case? Who was the Judge over this case? My case is a combination of all of this.

This is no Hope for Disabled Veterans in my area. Hope and Change my foot!
