Postal Worker Secretly Films Customer's Racist Rant (And assault?)

[SourCandy]

The girl in your sig doing all that little girl poses is really annoying.

I agree but she's cute.

Check out part 2 of the video where she says "######s killed Martin Luther King" and that black people turn on each other

LOL...

Didn't see this until reading the comments:

This woman is outrageous -- I am still waiting for US Postal Inspection Service to investigate this matter. it has been a year since postmaster fired me for this racist lady, and Hingham court let her go free, no trial.

He gave her address below and the Postal Inspector can possible put him in jail. You don't release other people's information you gain from a job, especially a government job. He committed a federal crime.

My God...

He deserved to be fired. Now, with the release of her address... If anyone follows this, I'll bet he gets heavily fined and/or jailed.

[Wild Cobra]

What was he fired for? I mean, he was fired a year ago and this is still unresolved. Mind boggling.

Not mind boggling at all. A few years ago I was a postal carrier, as a temporary gig between jobs. He was fired, and now... releasing her address... will likely go to jail!

[Wild Cobra]

As per the video description:

"More videos are yet to come as I am still awaiting US Postal Services to tell me why there has not been an investigation which was the reason that I was fired."

Stunning insight from WC. He was likely fired because it's easier to fire someone and replace them than deal with a customer's ranting and complaints/possible court action.

It might help that I was a carrier a few years back, and know the rules, and the power and force at which they do not tolerate any mishandling of mail that is not unintentional.

He could have given her the signed card and returned the certified letter as a retry for another day. He had no right to try to force her to take the letter. It doesn't matter how wrong the customer was. He was wrong too, and two wrongs don't make a right.

Racism is not dead.

Look at all the Obama hate.

I don't hate Obama for his color. I hate him for his politics.

Three more points I want to make about the stupid postal worker.

1) He cannot force a customer to take anything.

2) Who here, would agree it isn't a crime for your carrier to put your name and address on the internet.

3) If the husband didn't live there any longer, it would be illegal for her to knowingly take the letter.

I wondered about this too. I believe the procedure when you mail a certified letter says that the carrier will deliver it to the recipient or their authorized representative. I would think that saying it was not for her, not wanting to accept it, she is declaring that she is not an authorized recipient; so it would not be right for him to force her to accept it. Maybe that also contributed to his firing?

[Fpoonsie]

I agree with Benefactor about her being psychotic, she needs hospitalization. And if the postal worker got fired because of this incident, maybe the filming violated some rule they have. Or that it's just not cool to goad a crazy person into behaving even crazier. Is he the first postal worker ever to run into this kind of situation? Once she started ranting why didn't he just take the letter back and drive to the next block then call his supervisor to report the incident, instead of prolonging it so he could film it? I'd be really surprised that the USPS requires postal carriers to force someone to accept a certified letter that isn't even addressed to them.

This is pretty much where I'm at. She seemed to be, at the very least, unstable. He prolly had prior knowledge of it, and when she started to act up again, he thought it'd be funny to film her reaction. You can tell he's just trying to get soundbytes out of her mid-way through...

I think possible she knew it was illegal for her to take it and knew it could be possible trouble for her to let the signature stand.

Who knows how pleasant she may have been before the video we see. How much of the beginning was edited out?

From the training I had, he was clearly wrong. No question about it. He severely violated the rules, and did in fact do a "fire-able offense" that even the union will not back him on.

[NASCARdad]

I don't hate Obama for his color. I hate him for his politics.

I feel the same way.

[lefty]

At the risk of soundin' all "broken record"-like, that show was RIDICULOUSLY unfunny.

Ban !

[ploto]

He had no right to try to force her to take the letter.

I saw no evidence that he forced her to take the letter. She took it and signed for it willingly, and then she tried to force him to take it back and give her back the receipt she had already signed.

...not wanting to accept it ... so it would not be right for him to force her to accept it.

She had already accepted it without any problem, or she would not have already signed for it.

[Spursfan092120]

Yes, she is a , but I believe he will be fired over the incident.

As a postal worker, he is required to protect the mail. He knew she didn't want the letter, and could safely assume she would destroy the letter rather than give it to her husband.. Possibly recently ex husband. His attempt to force her to take the letter would probably insure him never receiving it, though it was certified.

She signed for the letter...he didn't force her to do anything. When certified mail is signed for, it can't be returned...it's a process..that's why it's called certified. She signs for it, it HAS to be in her hands. He did his job.

[Spursfan092120]

Racism is not dead.

Look at all the Obama hate.

Wow..either this is a troll or that is a very ignorant statement. So, because someone doesn't agree with Obama politics or Obama views, they're racist? So if a black person didn't agree with Bush's views, does that make them racist too? Clinton? Bush Sr.? Reagan?

Before she realized it wasn't for her. He was in the wrong by postal regulation not to do as she wished.

Yep...

these idiots like to have it both ways.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

You're assuming that the hate stems from his politics.

I think it just adds to it or reinforces it for a number of people.

Chicken or egg?

With some people, yes..it could reinforce it, but someone would be ignorant to believe that it's the case with everyone..now, I don't like Obama...has nothing to do with the color of his skin..I don't agree with his politics or his views, and I hate that he has the race card that he or a supporter can play (not saying he's playing it on purpose, but it's there) if someone doesn't agree with what he's doing.

[Spursfan092120]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when you sign for a certified letter, I'm pretty sure it can't be returned. If she made the mistake of signing for a letter that's not hers, it's not the postal worker's fault. He was doing his job.

[mrsmaalox]

Okay fine, let's say the postal carrier did not force her to do anything; she signed for the letter of her own free will. Also that a certified letter cannot be returned once it has been accepted and he was following proper procedure by not accepting it. What stopped him from saying "I'm sorry ma'am there is nothing I can do, please feel free to address this issue with the USPS" and just drive away? What other purpose would there be for him to stick around except just to film her? He is on company time, is filming a customer for his own benefit an acceptable use of company time? I'm not saying he should have been fired, I'm just pointing out it could be something that contributed to his firing.

And the unnecessary filming is a pretty passive-aggressive, self serving kind of action that frankly, might be a normal behavior for him. Employers don't care for those kind of employees at all; could this incident just be one in a long line of problems caused by this employee? We just don't know all the facts to be able to say it was absolutely wrong to fire him or that he was even fired for this alone.

Oh and did he file assault charges? He would certainly be within his right to do that.

[Al Sharpton]

Just like you all.

Holy crap you're not kiddin...but I REALLLY wanna have sex with her at the same time

[PM5K]

I agree but she's cute.

I love you.

[hater]

and white ppl ask why brothers are so mad

[pawe]

I bet he wouldn't act that way when the camera isn't on. It's like a plea for sympathy the way he says dont call me names, you dont have to slap me, etc.

/b/ is hitting her hard right now because of the leaked docs.
