What do you have to do to get fired from a public union job?

And this, in a nutshell is everything that is wrong with public unions. The public gets shit on by sub-standard employees who have no real-world job skills, and that employee gets a new (and probably better) route:

PORTLAND, Ore. – A mail carrier who was caught using a yard as his personal toilet will not be fired.

The incident happened last month at a home in southeast Portland and a neighbor, Don Derfler, captured the man in the act with his camera.

Derfler had been waiting for his babysitter when he saw his mailman acting odd at his neighbor’s house across the street. The postal worker then pulled down his pants and that’s when Derfler began snapping pictures.

“We trust people like the postal service and meter readers and people of that nature,” Derfler told us when we interviewed him in April. “To come on to our property and to defecate – it’s just wrong.”

The incident was an embarrassment to the post office and the worker was immediately placed on unpaid leave. Now, a decision has been made to keep the worker but he will be transferred to a different route.

And you know why he wont’ be fired? Yep…his fucking public union protected him. I mean…if you can’t get fired for that…you simply just can’t get fired from a public union job. I’m guessing the fact that the mailman was black made it even harder to fire him.
