  1. I need to contact Isaac Cronkhite . I’m a City Carrier here in Portland, Oregon 97209. I have a case with Human resources in Eagan and they are not helping me.

    We do not have that contact information. You would need to ask USPS. 1-800-Ask-USPS or http://www.usps.com

  2. Having difficult time receiving packet from human resources for early dis. Retirement

  3. Really, is this guy gonna tell me how to do my job, when he’s never done it….like a bunch of other supervisors. And he’s getting paid wwwhhhaaattt!! No wonder the post office is losing money. How about fss. 250billion dollar machines not even being used..Come on man

  4. I am going to go out on a limb here, I would bet dollars to stale donuts that Mr. Cronkhite did NOT serve in the military. Teamwork and unleashing a persons ability is something that the military was very good at because the people in charge had to work hard and learn before they went on to teach others. I have seen many a man in fancy suits and titles stroll down the workroom floor as we were casing mail and had no clues or input to what we were doing nor did they seem to care. Again I ask, how does a company that is on the verge of financial disaster have so many phony job titles with great salaries? We the long time carriers are the front line grunts of this company and we’ll never have to shy away from a mirror on payday.

  5. so, someone with no background in human resources is the VP of Human Resources for the postal service. is this some sort of joke? what company in the private sector hires a VP of HR with no experience in HR?

  6. Another overpaid, underworked clown who contributes nothing to the movement nor delivery of the mail.

  7. Foster and cultivate talent? We are putting a letter or two into a mailbox, I could’ve seriously taught my job to a 3rd grader if they were old enough to drive a vehicle. Bottom line, the guy knew somebody and got himself a high paying position with a company that thinks bullying is proper. This company rips the work ethic out of a person sooner or later. I hope he knows that.

  8. Go down to a postal union hall and try to “unlock their potential”, Good Luck!!!!!!
