Save the B.U. Post Office
The American Postal Workers Union, Boston Metro Area Local 100, would like to speak with you today about the closing of the Boston University Post Office.
First, it is important to note that the Postal Service does not rely on tax revenue to perform its operations. In other words, your hard earned dollars do not subsidize Postal Service functions. All the while, we interact with the American Public on a daily basis, providing extraordinary service at a reasonable price.
However, the Postal Service, one of the most honored institutions in America, is being systematically dismantled by a management group intent on following corporate ideology that prioritizes downsizing and outsourcing (even at higher costs) rather than growing our business through dedication to service. Postal Service management is fostering the long lines that now pervade local post offices. Why To discourage you from conducting your transactions with a window clerk, forcing you to seek alternatives, and thereby justifying their pre-determined and particularly self-fulfilling staffing cuts.
The Postal Service plans on closing hundreds of Post Offices nationwide including the Boston University Post Office. Of course, while we are concerned with protecting our members jobs, we are similarly concerned with the quality of service we provide our nation.
Whatâ
The suits in management want us silent while they gut our local service to pad their corporate bottom line. We are pushing toward 250 signatures to show them that we will not let them destroy the BU Post Office without a fight. Get this link in front of everyone you know right now because the clock is ticking.

We just hit 100 signatures and the suits at USPS management are finally starting to feel the heat. These bureaucrats are trying to kill our local service for profit and they clearly do not expect us to fight back this hard.
Reached 100 supporters

Postal Service management is betting that we will get tired and quit so they can finalize their gutting of the Boston University branch. We are almost at 100 people fighting back against these corporate hacks. Send this link to three people right now to show them we are not going anywhere.

Corporate greed at its finest. They just want to make life harder for everyone. Keep the BU office open.
