Re-elect Jerome Pittman for Western Region
Motor Vehicle Craft National Business Agent

THE MOTOR VEHICLE CRAFT


We are the most scrutinized craft in the Postal System. We drive the largest, most dangerous vehicles on the roads, and are responsible for transporting millions of dollars of cargo.  We can be disqualified from working due to a variety of reasons. 


We can be disqualified for Safety concerns, Health reasons, , questionable driving records, whether its on the job or  private driving records.


On top of that,  the USPS is constantly trying to replace us, first by trying to contract out the entire state of California, and now trying to contract out the entire nation to HCR's;


WE DRIVE IN CONSTANT DANGER OF LOSING OUR RIGHT TO DRIVE AND OUR JOBS. 


We are the only craft that is constantly randomly drug tested, and we still have one of the lowest positive drug test rates in the country; public or private

We can be disqualified from driving for minor health issues. 

We must be re-certified medically at least every 2 years, with some drivers being re-certified every 3 months. 

Our accidents are not looked upon as accidents; they are looked upon as disciplinary issues. 


Any one of these issues can result in a driver losing his right to drive, and his job, yet we continue to perform day after day. 


No one is complaining, this is the profession that we have chosen, and despite these challenges we have high morale, and a high degree of pride in our profession.  


We will continue to fight for our jobs, and we will continue to give the public the professional service that they have been accustomed to for all these years.


The Motor Vehicle Craft is the heartbeat of the Postal Service.  Without us, nothing moves.


We have worked to hard, for too long to let anybody take our jobs
