SEPT 11?


I thought I'd take a moment to see if fellow A'gonners had any special plans. For me it will be pretty much buisness as asual.

I intend to take a personal moment of silence however,

I,m a letter carrier and on that fateful day everybody stopped working and went upstairs to see the TV set in the swing room.No work was done until 11:00 am.Management was so confused,but I suggested that the most important thing to do at that moment was to deliver the mail and to let folks know that we as Americans was not going to let those bums scare us from doing our daily routines.Tomorrow at the MAIN Post office at MAIn St. Flushing at exactly 8:46 am we will be having a candlelight vigil in front of the P.O...unfortunatly Postal management will ot let us do this on their time but it will only be for 10 minutes on our break time.But no matter what we cannot forget,i lost a good buddy,PAUL ZOIS he was on the 96th floor on that day and his spirit always remains with my brother an myself.My brother is a letter carrier in Boca Raton Fla. and I'm ouite sure he will refelct and remember on that moment too.I will be delivering the mail on Sept 11th....
No letter carriers at the Church St Station were lost in the incident.Most of them were setting up the routes for the days delivery.Mahattan has an 8am starting time so most were inside racking the mail.As far as I know no postal personnel were lost on that day,but all the letter carriers there were affected as most of the folks working in the towers were like family to them.Youre correct management are a bunch of idiots and they got a 4% raise for being dumb as the hardest working people the letter carriers got 1.8 % which is crumbs to me,but lets thanks the creator that all of us are continued to be blessed to have another dya of life.
