Hi All,
Well, I just got off the phone with the regional supervisor of the post office here in Cleveland.
In the interim I called consumer affairs, filled out the gallup poll AND called the ask usps number AND talked with a supervisor at the big main post office. Needless to say consumer affairs is NOT happy with her.
The regional supervisor, Shirley was apalled and needless to say really mad. When she said disciplinary action will be taken, I believe her. She said she couldn't tell me what that would be but it would be dealt with to the FULLEST extent that SHE herself could possibly do. She did say there are many different ways to handle this, but in her opinion, terminating this supervisor wasn't good enough, that remark she was venting and I understand why.
You see, in talking with Shirley, she was very quiet and listened and when she would occaisionally say yes or uh-huh I heard the crackle in her voice. She heard every detail I was saying and I could tell was listening closely. She informed me that her husband is a SGT. in the Army. 82nd AA Div from Ft. Bragg and is deployed RIGHT NOW!! Her daughter is in the NAVY and deployed on a ship in the mid east RIGHT NOW!! So she did NOT take this situation lightly by any means. She was very upset that Beverly made the statements and acted as she did but explained to me she would do all she could to see this employee was disciplined as it hit a nerve with her.
I believe I got the right lady to let this employee know she needs to watch her mouth and actions and not belittle people in front of others, and make people feel uncomfortable. I refuse to let her discourage me, I plain refuse. On a more better note, I looked and I have enough things I can pack about( 4) 70 pound boxes for Chase and his unit
. BUT
I got a call from him a couple of hours ago and he is on his way home for r and r
( which was sposed to be in Nov, he took it early and wanted to surprise me) He told me he would love it if I could be at the airport when he came in on Saturday since he doesn't have anyone to greet him. I was so happy and after the shock, I said yes. So I had to book a flight to N.C. in the midst of all this
. So, the 70 pound boxes will be on their way when I get back in a couple weeks! But maybe I should stroll through the post office first and see if she still works there!! Thanks for all your advice and caring comments, it made me feel alot better and I feel I did the right thing by reporting her. She may have done this to another supporter too
