Canada Post Workers Back on the Job Tomorrow | Your Morning

[@littlesheebacorea4608]

Happened to me multiple times before where a CP worker didn't bother knock and just slapped a "sorry we missed you" while I was literally watching at the window upstairs. The CP workers almost always have an attitude. On the other hand, the Fedex and UPS drivers work waaaaaay longer shifts but still try to be nice and treat their customers right. I will not feel sorry at all if CP is bankrupt and render these people jobless. So long there's a demand, there will be supply, the competitors will swoop in just like what they are already doing, but way faster.

[@joeyjoey5136]

Cp doesn't have sorry we missed you prints on their cards. So read the cards carefully next time to see which courier it is or go find an eye doctor.

[@bobross6593]

so you watched, instead of going to the door?

[@Stoneloner]

I used to work for Amazon which is one of the most profitable companies of all time. Amazon drivers deliver between 200 and 250 packages a day and they have absolutely no rights. Amazon does not even employ them directly and there is no contract between the company and the drivers. Amazon uses private companies to avoid employing these drivers or giving them any rights. Unfortunately, most Canadians treat Amazon drivers as package thieves, not to mention the ridiculous notes that customers leave for us to follow when delivering packages. The Canadian government, with which we split our salaries, is fully complicit in torturing these drivers by providing Amazon with foreign workers because the average life expectancy of a driver at Amazon is only three months! I don't think there is a sane person who opposes any measures that contribute to fairness and improving the living conditions of workers. But Canada Post in particular is literally collapsing with each passing day and yet its workers are demanding that they be treated like pilots and that everyone stand by them to achieve their unrealistic demands during the Christmas season. Guys, just because you have a union doesn't mean you are right, be reasonable!

[@turntablesrockmyworld9315]

Silly post. The correct solution is to get unionized or boycott Amazon jobs. To argue that because of this,, the other is now unreasonable is faulty logic. The better approach is to get better conditions for Amazon workers and all other workers.

[@IsaacGarrard]

That board is a joke

[@JamesSmithTexas]

I work from home and have watched CP workers not even attempt to deliver my packages. They just leave “sorry we missed you” notes on my door. I guess that’s what happens when you pay someone 8 hours for “completing” their shift early.

[@dlprod11]

Uh Canada post does not have "Sorry we missed you notes."

[@ericcasagrande]

@@dlprod11 .... You're right! They just leave a card telling you approximately where and when you can try to collect the package they never delivered to you.

[@pinklilyz420]

​@dlprod11 Actually, they do send a "We attempted to deliver slip" you can even google it. The fact you choose to state someone is wrong without research and being the wrong one makes you look incredibly stupid.

Needs to be privatized. This has to be the most arrogant and most entitled organization in the country. During Christmas Time! How sick you are selfish and arrogant. At least y have jobs so many people don't during this time. Thanks to the minister!

[@turntablesrockmyworld9315]

Because that is when their contract ended and the job actions followed. Such a small-minded attitude. Specify how they are "entitled". Your entire message is that your legal right to strike should be abolished because you should be grateful to be employed? So silly.

[@frankreda6532]

What about the senior citizens that depend on there government checks or income for there daily income for food, rental. So unfair

People still get government checks in the mail? Get your son to fill out the online form for you, it’s dangerous to give vulnerable people checks in the mail and completely unnecessary. My 80 year old mom gets NOTHING in the mail. Bye Canada Post.

What did you do during COVID?

[@drakecarter1780]

The workers couldn't care less.

[@BrettJACOBSEN-e1i]

And they are angry. Proba ly not as angry as the small business owners wjo depended upon Canada Post to deliver their packages, mail and checks and now have to close their doors. Their families are being affected and the posties don't care. Even Trudeau didnt care. Get back to work and fullfill your obligation to the public. The damage you people have done will not be forgotten.

After previous strikes it has taken them 3 weeks - 1 month to manage the backlog, so probably not months, but a while

[@RenatoDeang-w2r]

Government and CUPW should do independent audit to the Canada Post to find out where they loosing money. CEO claims Canada Post lost Almost 3 billions. Why they don’t open the book so everyone will know what happened to Canada Post.

[@writerpatrick]

It's mostly lost revenue from the mail not being delivered. The make a fair bit delivering flyers.

[@fabienneisore7831]

It's a public service! Not structured like a for profit! Go research!

[@littlesheebacorea4608]

It's all public. 60+% of their cost goes to salary and benefit for those UNSKILLED workers.

[@SomeNativeOfficial]

I like how the postal workers pay so much money to the union leaders and all they got in return was 5 weeks of standing in the cold, and 9% of their annual income lost. Brilliant job by all involved xD

[@OneFreeMan17]

Yeah I’m glad I don’t work there any more.

[@YoungiinAmc]

don't forget they have lots of backed up work to do, for the same pay

[@writerpatrick]

Unions don't work for the workers. They work for the NDP.

[@fabienneisore7831]

Yes because not negotiating in good faith will result in labour violence we saw pre-unions.

They don't appreciate having a job that pays . They took advantage of the fact that even if they are not working they will be paid.. And ruined Christmas for everyone else u needed their service.. Milked their company of funds too.. their should be away they can repay back the company for losses they caused them.. Also if I was a small business owner I'd sue them for holding my stock, loss of income and costs extra incurred due to their selfishness. The workers are very narrow minded and self absorbed.. Clearly the company can afford to meet their needs.. appreciate the fact that you have an income.

Where did you get those ideas from? Imagination?

[@ericcasagrande]

The government isn't perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but if the postal workers feel wrong done by, they can always put in an application and C.V. with Tim Horton's or Walmart.

[@fabienneisore7831]

Same for you. Cause next time, it will be your job and your contract. Think about it.

[@staceyfritch2365]

They should get nothing and just be thankful they have a job.

[@turntablesrockmyworld9315]

Why do you say this? So someone with a job should not have increased wages with increased cost of living? Such a close-minded perspective.

[@vincewhite5087]

Mail delivery almost doesn’t exist anymore. Most parcel can be delivered other ways.

[@ArtIsExperience]

When did the contract negotiations start? The contract ran out 2 YEARS AGO! How can they be this far apart after at least 2 years of negotiations, assuming they started negotiating the new contract the day the previous one expired? Who runs a business this way? Ridiculous.

[@boardammo1593]

Any normal person would find a new job, not CP workers though, they love the pay, benefits, and being greedy!

[@realbro1415]

​@boardammo1593 Yeah, they love it so much they went on strike for 4 weeks... 🤡

[@creativeexpletives]

Canada Post recorded a pre-tax loss of $748 million for 2023, which is $200 million more than the 2022 loss of $548 million. This was the sixth consecutive year that Canada Post reported a loss of more than $150 million. Whereas private players made billions in profits during this period. Please privatise the postal services.

[@7Dorie]

I think that the postal workers are out to get themselves on unemployment. Canada Post will soon be history and they will no longer have any job at all. Striking for more money right now is suicide.

[@fabienneisore7831]

You can't private sector won't deliver mail in rural areas.....not enough profit....

[@bobross6593]

@@bobross6593 Its a balance sheet, so loss comes from the 'bottom line' - payroll for the ordinary postal workers contribute to the 'loss' as well.

If my employers were 300 million in the hole, I would be laid off, not given a raise. They have made life difficult during the time of year that they would have made the most money.
