    When I went to a new campus to work at I had to deal with a HUGE PITA.

    I talked about her before.

    She..

    Refused to turn in numbers on time.
    Hid the ledger after hours
    Hid the ledger when she went on vacation.
    Refused to learn how to use a computer, let alone learn how to turn it on
    go to the spreadsheet and mail me a set of numbers.

    When I went to HER STUPIDvisor, she shrugged her shoulders and told me to 'try and work with her' or 'find a system that would get me the info on time'.

    So, it was a failure of the system - no boss to go to and when I complained about it, I was the trouble maker.

    ------------

    Because no one complained about this AH back when it would have made a difference, they were stuck with a
    clerk who didn't GAS about how her laziness affected the system.

    She ruled by fear and was one of those lazy employees that was biding her time until she retired with a nice pension.

    We, as patrons of a service that we pay for, shouldn't be afraid to drop a dime or note when we feel like we are being abused, unsatisfied, unserved.

    As a matter of fact?

    I'd send a 'Nice Complaint' in and follow it up with a bunch of anonymous Eff You complaints, just to spice things up.

    If I am getting screwed, why not return the favor?

    Don't take my comments the wrong way. If the clerk is a PITA, then someone needs to be aware of it.

    If management isn't doing anything about it, then it's management's fault, NOT THE Union's! Yes, it is eminently possible to fire or discipline a postal employee, but there is a procedure to do so, and management continually screws it up.

    That having been said, I can count on one hand the number of supervisors in the postal service who I would count as competent.

    There are many supervisors in the system who are sweetness and light when dealing with customers, and unholy terrors when dealing with employees. There are window clerks who WERE pleasant employees at one point, then found their attitude when dealing with management and customers. (I've seen customers berate people for little to no reason too many times in the limited amount of time I spend at the window)
    The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.

    I did call the post office today about my missing gas bill. They said there is nothing they can do to find it. He will talk to my carrier and see if he remembers it. Like he can remember one out of the hundreds he delivers. The poor guy is doing two routes now since my original carrier retired. It might not even have gotten to our town. sheesh
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    We find mail in machines in odd places that sits there for a long time without being found. There are all sorts of nooks for mail to hide in, and if it slips into one of those spots, you're not going to find it until something odd breaks and the techs have to tear into that portion of the machine.

    Ask the utility company for a duplicate.

    However, if you're having problems with continuously delayed mail (like my Verizon bill that I received AFTER the payment was already late, or my bank statements) then ask for the POOM.
