Beyond the Satchel

Welcome to the New Year! Let's make it a safe one out there on the mail routes, and here to help you achieve that goal is Aaron Purnell. We discuss some common safety issues in the workplace, working together to further safety goals, and remind everyone....please, for the love of God, WEAR YOUR GOSH DARN SEATBELT!!! #mail #nalc #postoffice #mailman #usps #safety #beyondthesatchel

While the boy is away, the women will play! With Ken on vacation, Cristal is flying solo in this episode and hosting a women's roundtable discussing women in leadership. #mail #nalc #postoffice #women #womenempowerment #leadership

Package volume has been suspiciously light for the both of us these past few weeks, and we have now found out why. The processing facilities that send out everything to our offices are backed up big time. With frustrations growing and previous attempts to privatize the post office, it is important to remember privatization is not the answer to these problems. We must stay strong and support the anti-privatization resolution ( ( S.Res. 147 / H.Res. 70) currently in congress to protect the postal service and all the great letter carriers trying to do right by their customers. #nalc #letter #usps #postallife #unionstrong #laborunions #overtime #mail #mailman #postoffice #delivery #delivering #accountability

We promised this one would be a big one, and it is finally here! We have NBA and NALC National President candidate Mike Caref on the show with us to answer some questions, discuss his platform, and plan a future hunting trip with Ken. You can check out Mike's platform at Caref4prez.org #usps #mail #mailman #nalc #postoffice

This one is short and sweet. We appreciate your patience as we get the hang of this media stuff while juggling the chaos of peak season at the post office. The wait is worth it, though. We have some great episodes coming soon! #usps #mail #mailman #nalc #postoffice
