[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 3348662, member: 12952"] Fall of 76. It was not a nation wide strike , since NY was working under a separate contract. Out for 15 weeks. Across from Watertown Ma building there is an asphalt plant who kept their raw materials in the open. The local news had pictures of people who were allowed to pick up there parcels using the entrance where the line was set up . Unfortunately as they were leaving those raw materials ( stones ) were being throw at them . Also shown were the 24 hr police details to stop this behavior . As weeks went on I heard it was so quiet that the cops were paying for pizzas for the guys on the line. The USPS had shut down there parcel handling service in Boston just a few months prior . All of a sudden they had full TT loads show up . It was scramble for them to hire enough to fill a shift , they went to 10 hr/day at 7 days /week shifts and still could not handle to load . Also it should be noted that this quarter was the first time USPS showed a profit . [/QUOTE]
