What's Wrong with Canada Post? "Post-Modern" Modifications
For several months our postal service has been deteriorating, with our mailman delivering letters well after dark by the light of a sort of headlight. I've complained to Canada Post and been told there is nothing that can be done about it. I've also written to the ombudsman but so far not received an answer.
La Presse today confirms my worse suspicions today, though. Misguided changes, involving rather large capital expenses in the form of mail trucks for every letter carrier and the reorganization of routes have resulted in 10 and 12 hour work days, masses of overtime and worker burnout.
The corp lost a lot of money last year, in part because it has had to make up for inequitable pay practices following a Supreme Court decision. Paying women less than men was a stupid decision at the time, and it would seem that current management isn't much smarter.
