I would just like to say, as a Canada Post letter carrier, that you (and several others here) don't have a clue what you are talking about. Your posts in this thread should be struck from the record.

I know exactly what I'm talking about. I managed a retail postal outlet for 2 years and worked there for a total of 4 years. I've dealt directly with the Depot, with the drivers, with the Manager of the depot, with Canada Post on a corporate level etc.
I've met dozens of Canada Post employees. Many of them very nice. Virtually all agreed that the Union was ridiculous and caused them to be overpaid. Pretty much all usually agreed that the Union stifled any will to work and succeed and that the lack of a merit based system sucked and killed productivity.
Every single mail carrier who was contracted was overworked and underpaid. They all got the worst of the jobs.
If you feel that your job is too difficult and you aren't due the compensation you deserve - both in terms of salary and benefits - please explain to me why you believe so. I'd be very interested to see why you feel that way.
