Episode 97: Me & from A to Arbitration

Corey recounts a personal experience where he faced intimidation from postal inspectors and the subsequent decision to join the union. He now passionately advocates for letter carriers, citing numerous complaints about inadequate union support and management's attempts to reduce work time/load times through falsified training records. Corey emphasizes that the union isn't always representing carriers effectively, leading to his confrontational tone and focus on filing grievances. He plans a future episode with JB focusing on grievances regarding improperly recorded training. He mentions a listener's concern about the negativity of the podcast and acknowledges that a portion of his audience is displeased with the shift in tone. He states that his focus remains on educating carriers and supporting them, even if it means confrontation. He highlights specific examples of management actions and encourages listeners to file grievances regarding these issues. Corey highlights the value of his podcast by citing over 217,950 downloads and the impact his episodes have had on listeners with successful grievance outcomes. Finally, Corey plans to continue his role as a voice for voiceless letter carriers, even if it means alienating some listeners. http://www.fromatoarbitration.com/
