- ‘He’s an angel’
Letter Carrier Branch 120 President Joseph
Murone in Paterson, N.J., was walking his route
one morning just before 6 a.m. when he saw a
fire erupt from a home. He ran up the steps and
started pounding on the door, right in the face
of the fire. “I was doing everything I could to
wake people up — yelling and screaming and
banging on the windows,” he said. It worked.
Waleska Morales, her sister-in-law and three
children woke up and escaped. “I’m starting to
believe he’s an angel,” Morales said of Murone.
“I mean, what’s a mailman doing around at that
hour anyway?”

- Bush - Clueless on Postal Reform?
PostCom report:
As the Washington Post has noted, when he
appeared to speak before the National Newspaper
Association, President Bush got a question from
the audience on postal reform. Here is the
question and the President's response:
QUESTION: Postal reform, which has been going
on in Congress for about 10 years, was really
pushed forward by a commission that you
appointed. And it was passed overwhelmingly by
both houses and we have this bill going to
conference in April or May.
QUESTION: There's some concern that the
administration may want to oppose this bill or
veto it; it's so-called not favorable to the
federal budget. But there are things in that
bill that are very important to the newspaper
industry. And part of that is the funding that
keeps rates fair because of some overpayment of
military pensions that we don't think should be
put on to the taxpayers, the ratepayers. So we
would ask your support on behalf of us and
Bonnie Mullins... (LAUGHTER) ... to support that
bill as it's in the Congress, if it comes to
your desk, sir.
BUSH: As you know, we did support postal reform.
And as you accurately noted, we got the process
started. And we look forward to working with
Congress on an acceptable bill. Frankly, this
issue hadn't made it to my desk prior to me
arriving at this meeting. I'm mindful of the
bill. I need to know more about the particulars
before I make you a commitment one way or the
other.

Postal Carrier Delivers Life Back to Elderly Man
Veteran postal carrier Gene Kahl knew something
wasn't right. He paused in front of a home on
Kingsport Avenue Monday morning, a regular stop
on his Warrington route. Newspapers had piled
up. Mail was jammed inside the mailbox. Kahl
studied the car parked in the driveway and drew
a chalk line on a back tire. When the chalk was
intact two days later, he knew it was time to
check on the older couple who lived there.

No mail is an island
24-hour clock keeps USPS linked
"There are no islands in the Postal Service.
All of our processes are linked. If you do one
well, you’re going to do well in another, and
another, and another.” That’s how Deputy PMG Pat
Donahoe illustrates the importance of the
24-hour clock to our mail operations — to better
manage our time, keep the mail moving and give
our customers the service they depend on.
Meeting commitments by deadline helps the next
shift — or the next plant or Post Office further
down the mailstream — meet its deadlines too.
Key indicators to help us use the 24-hour clock
are:
- All carriers back by 1800 (6 p.m.)
- Cancel 80% of collection mail by 2000 (8 p.m.)
- Process outgoing primary-sort mail by 2300 (11
p.m.)
- Process outgoing secondary-sort mail by 2400
(midnight)
- Clear MMP mail by 2400. Zero MMP at 2400
(midnight)
- Assign commercial/FedEx outgoing mail by 0230
(2:30 a.m.)
- Process all DPS 2nd-pass mail by 0700 (7 a.m.)
- Dispatch mail on time from plants to delivery
units 0400-0900 (4-9 a.m.)
PEN Editor: Are these indicators being
met in your area?
