		<description>I think what bothers me most is that employees like KD continue to complain when hundreds of thousands are being laid off.  
We aren&#039;t demanding anything more than what the unions have demanded AND recieved regardless of the employee&#039;s performance; a regular pay raise. 

If it&#039;s that bad, then do us all a favor and resign or step up and try to make it better!</description>

		<description>To jtp and all the other supervisors who work more than 40 hours a week and only get paid for 40....Feel free to come back to the craft and get paid hourly rather than salary. Nobody held a gun to your head and told you that you had to be a supervisor.  
I dont understand why anyone would want to take a job and get paid the same salary no matter how many hours they work.</description>

		<description>KD what rock have you been hiding under?  PFP IS performance based.  Not like the craft which gets its 2-3% plus cost of living every year no matter what they or the company does.  How about the crafts give up their yearly pay increases, COLA, and overtime to help the cause.</description>

		<description>These are not &quot;bonuses&quot;, these are our pay raises.  We (front line supervisors) do not get cola raises or contract raises, we get raises based on our performance and or districts performance and national performance.  Most of us are lucky to get 3 - 5 % a year.  I know that most craft contracts have regular raises plus cola increases.  I am not asking for a bonus but to keep my pay up to inflation.  I do not get time and a half hours worked past 8 or over 40 in a week.  I am sure that I put in far more than 50 hours a week and get paid for a full 40.....  Don&#039;t think that all of us are in this for the money, respect or stimulation.  I was just a little bored..  LOL</description>

		<description>They have run us in the hole, and now THEY want to demand payment for bonuses that they dont deserve! In what business world , does bad performance and bad decision making get rewarded.  They make the most idiotic decisions concerning business, and they think they can just tell a whole organization that they cant stop thier undeserved bonuses, when every delivery business is hurting due to the prices of gas.  The ridiculous mentalities of supervision in the postal service has yet to amaze me.  The reorganization of the Postal Service needs to start with half of manangement positions being dissolved.  Better requirements for promotion, such as business degrees.  And actually performance bsed promotions, not good ole boy I know this guy, like it is now.  the arrogance of management is astounding, such as this article.
