204B....the legend of the paper tiger!!

[smitty]

Fellow handlers, has anybody come to grips with what a SHAM the postal service management has become? About 6 months back i asked a certain acting MDO just out of curiosity what it takes to grab the attention of upper management to be given the elite title of 204B. This acting MDO came in close to me, looked around and whispered (in an off the record way), "you gotta have some sort of head on your shoulders, some smarts". Then one week to that day, i saw they had made the border line mathematician/brain surgeon Harry Potter a 204B. Now know disrespect to Harry, but their are countless 204B's roaming the mean streets of mid island day to day, strutting around like that tie put an extra couple of inches on their crotch and a million dollars in there bank account, yet their incapable of managing to brush there own hair in the morning. I personally have a 204B supervising my area, and besides the lack of the English language and people skills he does not possess, his willingness to throw his workers under the bus, and be a complete puppet to the MDO's makes my work area a tension filled powder keg with unnecessary stress, and a lack of morale amongst the mail handlers and him. If it turns out to be true.... that all 204B's are to be stepping down in January 09' i say they get a warm welcome when they come back to the craft for being such complete a**holes. By this i mean treat them as they treated you, with zero respect. Mail handlersssss..........mount up!!!!!!
