There's Always Work at the Post Office
Author: Philip F. Rubio
Publisher: Univ of North Carolina Press
ISBN: 0807895733
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 473
Book Description
This book brings to life the important but neglected story of African American postal workers and the critical role they played in the U.S. labor and black freedom movements. Historian Philip Rubio, a former postal worker, integrates civil rights, labor, and left movement histories that too often are written as if they happened separately. Centered on New York City and Washington, D.C., the book chronicles a struggle of national significance through its examination of the post office, a workplace with facilities and unions serving every city and town in the United States. Black postal workers--often college-educated military veterans--fought their way into postal positions and unions and became a critical force for social change. They combined black labor protest and civic traditions to construct a civil rights unionism at the post office. They were a major factor in the 1970 nationwide postal wildcat strike, which resulted in full collective bargaining rights for the major postal unions under the newly established U.S. Postal Service in 1971. In making the fight for equality primary, African American postal workers were influential in shaping today's post office and postal unions.

Pages : 126
Book Description
Have you ever thought about being a mail carrier for the USPS?If so, now's the time because the United States Postal Service is hiring like never before.After a job freeze for far too long, full-time employees now retiring, and a growth in packages, the post office needs help delivering the mail like never before.A new position called City Carrier Assistant (CCA) is now open for prospective employees.But before you go to the trouble of jumping through hoops to get the position, only to find it's simply not what you expected, read this book to get more of an idea what you're getting yourself into.The author tried the job, and within these pages is what this one particular person experienced. The conflict of what happens in reality and the proposed practices was so unbelievable to the author, that this book had to be written.This is a first-hand account of what an average person might experience as they go through the process of applications, orientations, training, and finally on the street delivering the mail.We guarantee what you imagined will be nothing like the reality.So don't go in blind to a job you're not familiar with, and quickly become overwhelmed with propaganda and infinite forms to learn. Read this book and at least have a general idea of what to expect by seeing through the eyes of someone who has already done it.Whether you're looking to apply for the position, or just a postal customer who's curious about how their mail gets around from point A to point B, once finished with this book, you'll never look at the mail system the same way again.
