Greetings
from the Desk of the President.

From the Desk of Dominick
As we close out another successful year for the NC Chapter of
NAPUS, I need to share some pertinent information. It has come
to my attention that another postmaster group has resorted to
some unconventional recruiting tactics. Specifically, some new
members have informed us that they were told some very bold untruths
concerning our organization. Rather than get in to a name-calling
concerning these desperate attempts to recruit, NAPUS will once
again take the high road and simply place in print the facts
as to why NAPUS is the organization that offers the most to its
members.
First and foremost, each member of NAPUS has a voice and vote
in all matters that affect their organization.
NAPUS has the strongest Legal Defense fund and employs its own
attorney to represent you if the need occurs for representation
in Adverse Action.
Our Postmaster Representative committee has professionally trained
postmasters throughout the country to assist fellow postmasters
with advice and guidance and is chaired by none other than Sheila
Hunter who lives in Cary NC.
NAPUS is the only management group that employees a full time
Legislative Director of Government Relations. Bob Levi is well
respected by both the House and Senate and often asked to assist
in legislative matters that affect the Postal Service and Postmasters.
NAPUS is the most Financially sound postmaster group with more
than $2.9 million in assets. And your North Carolina Chapter
has more than $100,000.00 in assets.
In addition, NC NAPUS offers a Scholarship opportunity for graduating
High School seniors of its members.
Nationally, NAPUS currently represents almost 75% of all active
postmasters and enjoys a commanding lead in membership with 39,975
members.
NAPUS has its own Credit Union with over $200 million in assets
and offers most competitive rates and benefits.
And what about training! Not only is there the National and
State convention training opportunities, but NC NAPUS offers
workshops during the year throughout the entire state.
I challenge any other postmaster organization to release its
Financial and Membership
Statistics! It should be no secret who we are and what we stand
for: Postmasters helping postmasters and doing it with pride,
integrity, strength in numbers and the assets to support our
efforts.
These are just a few of the FACTS and the choice is yours. If
I had my wish list, we wouldn’t have to make a choice.
But the fact remains that we must choose. So if you want to be
part of a winning team, we look forward to welcoming you and
having you join our family. JOIN today and begin enjoying these
and the many other benefits that will help you be successful.
In closing, I thank each of you for your help and support throughout
the past two years as your president. I look forward to serving
you at the National Level as your National Vice-President and
pledge my complete support to incoming President Drew.
On a personal note, most are aware I was promoted to postmaster
of Newport NC 28570. It was a difficult decision to apply for
Newport, but after fifteen years on the beach, it was time for
a change. I started my career in Newport in 1981 and have resided
in the community since 1975. I am coming full circle and am excited
about this new adventure.
Again thank you for all your help and support and wishing you
all the best. As the job continues to be more and more difficult,
membership in NAPUS is more valuable than words can explain.
It has helped me keep the fun in my job!

Joint NAPUS/LEAGUE Task Force
The Greensboro District is forming a joint management organization
task force. With the support of District Manager and Lead Executive
Mr. Henry Dix, both NAPUS and the League are recruiting members
to serve on this special team. Volunteers will serve within close
proximity of their current duty assignment with all travel held
to a minimum.
Primary area of review will be Operational Integrity. Facilities
that have a need for assistance will be able to contact either
NC Chapter President to request a review. Team members may also
be sent to perform a review at the request of Mr. Dix or either
president, but all reviews will be jointly assigned.
The purpose in forming this team is to be proactive and in SUPPORT
of postmasters and those serving as an Officer-in-Charge. It
is intended to assist them in any capacity that would help them
meet their operational objectives. This is not a “gotcha” or
data gathering exploration that is to be used for corrective
action, but rather just the opposite. It is an effort to prevent
corrective action from occurring due to noncompliance. It may
even help put some fun back in our job
Findings are to be kept confidential unless they are so blatant
as to compromise the health, safety or fudiciary responsibility.
Even then they will be treated at the lowest level in an effort
to correct such matters.
The formation of this initiative was at the request of the postmaster
organizational presidents and again, is intended for the sole
purpose of assisting fellow postmasters.
If you are interested in serving on this team, and would like
to volunteer for consideration please contact either the NC NAPUS
or NC League President. All participants will serve on a “no
loss no gain” principle and duration is yet to be determined.
