Every craft has a no lay off clause in their contracts! Rural Carriers just had the hardest hit ever in all my years. In order for the economy to come out of this there has to be money stimulating the economy so why did the govt. cut salaries on the full timers and now the subs (RCA) will have to linger until they get a day here and there. Then due to the no layoff clauses, govt. is just going to let them dwindle with no hours until they quit and they won't even so much as be able to collect unemployment. That will really stimulate the economy won't it. It is a vicious cycle of money turning over so many hands and businesses. If you cut money from the economy then you are just as guilty. Shame on upper mgmt. Shame! If the USPS is so drained, then why do we bother to pay millions for sequencing machines if we are down on mail volume.

If the Postmaster Generals pay is going to be commensurate with his pears in the private sector… then we should do it for everyone else in the Postal Service. When I came into government service I knew I wasn’t going to get rich. I came to federal service mainly for the benefits and job security. What makes the Postmaster General different from any other federal employee? Maybe if he and his cronies’ hadn’t had such generous compensation packages last year… maybe he could have offered an incentive for those wishing to take the VER offers. I find it unbelievable that he would ask people to leave early to help his bottom line and expect them to be penalized if they took the VER.
