[QUOTE="BrownSuit, post: 336352, member: 14437"] You're complaining about how screwed up things are and say you want to quit, but don't seem to be doing anything to change it. Everybody is understaffed, every department is trying to do things faster with fewer people and less mistakes. We are getting undercut at every step, with the biggest two offenders being subsidized by the US Government and the German Government respectively. The rate case going into effect next Monday opens the door for the Postal Service to negotiate rates on a large scale in order to compete with us. If I were on your management team and found out that you were on here bashing my center/district by name, I wouldn't been too thrilled and you would be explaining yourself pretty quickly. It's one thing to explain what's going on and ask for opinions, it's another to come out and openly attack others. Personally, if it were me that found out you were saying this, you'd be coming up with a game plan for how you're going to fix all the problems you mentioned here under the current constraints. If you can't do that, then you don't deserve to be a supervisor. Be prepared to speak to the problems at hand and provide solutions, even if they aren't asked of you. If I called you in and was out of line in saying "Sit down and shut up" I would give you all the respect in the world for speaking up and given me bonafide solutions on how to solve the problems. Also, if I said something like that, I would want those who work with and for me to call the 800 number and report my sorry self for harassment and intimidation. Refusing to go in on you're vacation is fine, it's you're time and honestly I don't think you should be getting called in the first place. But refusing to go in and then saying that a company that has been around for a 100 years can't get a long without you is a problem with pride and personal character. None of us, including myself, are irreplaceable. Instead of criticizing our management team and the way that things are run, we should be providing constructive feedback. If they don't want to hear it or do it there own way, don't let that stop you from providing feedback in the future, just don't go saying "I told you so". . . .
