This section talks about scheduling, start times, and morning office duties. In this section, when it talks about morning leave times, NOWHERE does it mention a ONE HOUR OFFICE TIME! When it talks about loading your truck, NOWHERE does it mention a TWENTY MINUTE LOAD TIME! Listen in for more good stuff.

Today we will read PROOF POSITIVE that we are allowed to case our SPRs! And a bunch of other stuff, too, about the case and about casing. Reading the M-39 has been incredibly eye-opening and empowering, and we're just getting started!

It's time to turn the tables on management. We're going to read from the M-39, so we can learn all about the stuff management is supposed to be doing. I'll add commentary to what we read, talking about potential grievances, and emphasizing teachable moments. Let's hold management accountable!

We'll finish up the JCAM, and then talk about what's coming in the next seasons of Classes of Mail.

In this episode, we finally finish Article 41. We'll get to read about all the wonderful committees and task forces that are going to fix the cultural and technical problems of the USPS. Lucky us.

In this episode, we finally finish the contractual language of Article 41. However, there are SOOOO MANY memos at the end, I couldn't power through all of them. I'm going to need one more episode after this one to finally finish it off.

This is the fun section of Article 41, where we get to read a bunch of rules that cover how we deliver the mail.

Today I will read from my own LMOU. It's only effective for the Las Vegas area, but it has provisions in it that are similar to LMOU's around the country. This episode will give you an idea of the kind of things that are covered, and it may give you ideas for changes you can make in your own LMOU when the new contract is ratified.

One more section down, only a few more to go. This section talks about seniority and relative standing, and gives more details on the opt hold-down process

In this episode, we'll discuss all the things you have to do when you have your own route. I go over how to make changes in your edit book, how to manage your 3982's (pink cards) for forwards, and much more.
