Going Postal Again: SF Postal Workers Speak Out After Murder & Suicide

Going Postal Again
San Francisco Postal Workers Speak Out!
On November 28, 2006, two postal workers died in San Francisco. Postal worker and National Association Letter Carrier 214 member Julius Tart who had been an employee since 1988 had been disciplined for not finishing his work on time. A massive speedup is going on within the postal system with automation and increased pressure on the workers to mold themselves to the machines. Many postal workers are forced to work at night delivering mail in the dark.
Weeks after being written up by his supervisor Genevieve Paez, Julius Tart went to her house and killed her. He then committed suicide. This incident shocked some postal workers but did not surprise others. SF Postal workers talk about the stressful and deadly conditions in the post office and why postal workers feel the union tops have ignored this terrorism on the job. They also discuss why they feel they are threatened on the job.
A note by Julius Tart was found later addressed to his mother referred to himself in the past tense and complained about conditions at work. A memorial was held on December 13, 2006.
Also Labor On The Job programs a short video segment from the Royal Oaks, Michigan postal murders that led to deaths on the job in 1992. That LOJ show which was programmed on 2/27/1992 was titled "The Deadly Connection, Postal Workers, Stress And Murder On The Job.
"Labor On The Job" is programmed the 2nd and 4th Friday of the month on San Francisco Cable Channel 29 from 9:00 PM to 10:00. "Labor On The Job" is also the longest running labor cable show in the United States since 1983. It is produced and programmed by the Labor Video Project in San Francisco.
Labor On The Job also programmed on Philadelphia Drexel TV 54 every Wednesday 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM and St. Louis cable systems on on cable ch. 22 in the "City" of St. Louis Fridays at 9:00 PM

Can him, did he forget about dignity and respect? Must be the new training program of disrespect. Go for it. While you are there, take out the Postmaster for letting the idiot carry on like this. Probably some ignorant boss above him trying to bonus on your behalf. Good luck.
This is just another fine example of the management leadership within the U.S. Postal Service. There are many managers like this across the United States. Unfortunately, many of them are not challenged by the union regarding their unprofessionalism and lack of respect to the employees. Remember my brothers and sisters, respect is not something that is given it is earned!! Good Luck.
We wish we could be there in solidarity with you in your efforts to remove these LYING, DICTATORIAL, CONTRACT VIOLATING PIG TYPES OF SUPERVISORS! We will be there in spirit. We picketed against an unethical tyrant at our Potomac Post Office. Nearly everyone joined the picket line and the Area Manager removed the beast from our city. This wicked supervisor left in disgrace and ultimately felt the need to leave the state. It was good riddance!
If any branch would be successful in this endeavor it would be your branch. Branch 214 has been in the forefront of the struggle for better working conditions for decades.
Good luck with your picket against Ron Malig and your efforts to attain workplace justice!
IN SOLIDARITY,
Kenneth Lerch
President NALC 3825
