Episode 21: Andy Reads 2012 Rolando Testimony (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My buddy Andy has a better voice and higher reading capability than I do. Thus, I chose him to read the disturbing testimony that Fred Rolando submitted to the Das arbitration panel in 2012. In order to understand how we got where we are today, its important to understand what lead to the Das decision. This testimony explains how we got that decision. Thanks Andy
Episode 20: Andy, Forum reviews, Election thoughts. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cohost Andy joins me again to discuss a few zoom meetings we recently attended. We also briefly discuss our thoughts on the current NALC national election, whether actions are more important than words, and other random topics. Disclaimer; at some point I may refer to all candidates as Shi*, that was not well thought out or explained. I simply meant that nobody is a table 2 carrier and thus none of the current candidates represent our perspective.
Episode 19: Contract Leverage with Mike Caref (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode we have on Mike Caref to discuss what we have as leverage in the event that he wins the presidency and ends up taking our current negotiations to arbitration. We discuss the comparability factor written into law, the increased safety concerns, and other topics that would most likely come up as reasons we deserve a good contract.
Episode 18: Another chat with Andy. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Andy is back on to discuss our local branch meeting and to discuss the recent presidential roundtables.
Episode 17: Chatting with Table 2 carrier Michael Balestra (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today we sat down with Michael Balestra, a fellow table 2 carrier. Balestra is one of many carriers that came to the USPS and NALC a bit later in life so we sit down and discuss table 2 issues from that perspective.
