No new union but somethings certainly going on.
Our pastor got amazon by PO between 9:30 - 10pm one night recently, so late delivery still occurring.
Huntington sent a new rural carrier out 4th day
on the job, up Mt Union ridge with bald tires in
this snow. Then over the hill on flat bottom land
(different route same zip code) local news interviewed an elderly gentleman who hadn't rcvd mail delivery for 12 days.
Newcomers quit at least at 80% here.
Maybe 1 in 5 stay on, and that's mostly due to management saying sink or swim with little training and little help.
I don't miss a day of it. I started delivering out of a 1976 Cougar in 1985. Twice in my 37 yrs was mail delivery curtailed. The 2nd time was AFTER I had finished my route in a blizzard. Then they sent me back out to round up city carriers.

I think this explains the problems with people not wanting to work any more now days. Somehow the standard in organizational leadership has turned into no actual leadership going on. I know horror stories like that have kept me out of allot of these traditional career fields. I can't make myself work for people who won't work for the team themselves.
If they needed it or not.....Hey, they'll come pre- cold stratified.

Aside from WAAAAY over ripe they don't seem to have faired too bad actually.
Yay!! That shouldn't affect the seeds.

So, I put them in the fridge while waiting for that deep freeze to end so we could get to soil and such. Went to pull them out so I could start picking through them for seeds, and discover they're missing!
I start asking the kids, and my 6yo son tells me he took them to school one day for snack time.
I suppose there's worse ways for some kinzu to end.
I bet that wasn't a great snack.my 6yo son tells me he took them to school one day for snack time.
But it is a funny story.
