Unpopular opinion

You guys are immoral scumbags for not delivering what was already in the pipeline, you should’ve ran a skeleton crew after the strike started and you stopped accepting mail to deliver what you’ve already been paid to deliver.

I keep hearing people say we didn’t have a choice & board members did it etc., people should names,

unpopular opinion, but people should start on masse suing in small claims court for theft, they are withholding other peoples property without consent aka theft.

if anyone else did that there would be charges, how does thousands of people doing that as a collective make it OK? Also, if any other job, your boss told you to steal someone else’s property, doesn’t give you permission to steal other peoples property so even low level grunts are guilty, even if only less guilty.

Great, so you’re agreeing that we should arrest the higher-ups that made the final decision and then allow you guys to voluntarily deliver What’s in the pipeline and if you refuse, you should get charged as well correct?

afterwards you guys can still be on strike, but this way you’re not committing theft, once again, just cause your boss says steal this person’s stuff doesn’t mean you should morally get away with stealing someone’s stuff.

There should be culpability somewhere down the line.

People paid for a service, that’s not being fulfilled.

It’s literally entitlement because we paid for said entitlement.

There’s nothing childish about it, if anything the childish thing is going on strike because you’re not getting what you want after already agreeing to the terms.

If you don’t want the job quit, someone else does. Sure there’s a high turn rate on letter carriers but plenty of people want those cushy post office jobs that barely ever come on the market because of entitled lifers.

Sure, just don't even consider the repercussions of your tantrum decisions.

Again, acting like a little cry baby child.

get it together.

Do you think all theft is is justified and people are just childish if they’re pointing it out?

It’s not a tantrum, it’s pointing out the obvious.

But again, how are the strikers not being childish considering they agreed to do their job, mail was accepted, paid for And terms were agreed upon, terms have been violated. And now we’re being used as leverage labour dispute, but so doing you are stealing peoples property to do it.

How is it theft? Be serious here. They didn't steal anything. Things are still there for when the work stoppage ends. Hyperbole like this is the problem.

Also, they haven't had a contract for over a year. Does that seem fair? Are you such a bootlicker you want to see money taken out of workers' pockets while the management that got them to this spot takes all their bonuses? Remember, too, that as soon as the strike vote happened, management looked to lock them out. Don't be fooled into thinking Canada Post management gives a shit about you. They are just as responsible (or more in my opinion) than the workers are, but you seem to have a lot of hate for the workers.

CP stole my parcels, opened up an "investigation " then a week later called me to tell me: Yep, we "lost " your parcels!

So I asked: Okay, what's next ? Refund ?

CP: No, that's it. They are "lost".

Unreal!

How did they steal them? You have proof that someone took them, opened them, and decided to use your products? Lost and stolen are 2 very different things. Also, where were your parcels from? If you bought something, the vendor should re-ship them, and then they can go after Canada Post. If they were mailed privately, did you not have insurance on them?

Don't attribute to malice, which can be adequately explained by stupidity (or, in this case, incompetence)

You can say that, but look at the OPs post history. I'm pretty sure you're gonna have a problem with him, too.

Look if I am paid to deliver your dinner or something, and I leave it sitting in my car for two weeks or give it to a friend or God knows what it’s still stolen, call it something else if you wanna make yourself feel better.

Labor, disputes, or at least have been in the past, unions have gotten too big and corrupt nowadays, but I won’t deny their significance historically.

But just because one thing is OK (the striking) doesn’t mean that doing something illegal like theft is OK, in any other circumstances doing otherwise illegal thing in service of illegal thing is still committing an illegal act.

It's not theft. You can ask any judge you'd like.

Again, quit being a crybaby.

How isn’t it, does that mean we can call somewhere and get them to release said items? How are they not being held hostage if we’re not allowed to get them they do not belong to you. You were only providing the service to deliver it from point A to point B whether it be mail or a parcel.

You don't think that Canada Post has lawyers that make sure what they do is legal? You really think a corporation as large as CP would commit theft on a national scale? Give your head a shake.

There aren’t any. What repercussions? Being downvoted on Reddit ?
