@gordonc50 No, in my view, Canada Post was dishonest & shady & cheapskate back in 2019 and 2020. I have no idea when I was going to get called for work after some 2 days inital training back in October, waited over 2 months afterwards before I got called to work. The delays in recieving paystub made me very suspicious. They even put "overpayment recovery" as part of my earnings, when it effect it is a deduction to my pay!
And There was no ESS or any online paystub offered to new temp workers back in 2019 when I had worked:
I had no way to know the figures ahead of time, plus unstable hours on call based every single day. The 2 week withholding plus mail delay, means I cannot report the "allocated earning" on time per the end of each week.
Also being held in more than 2 weeks in arrears and made me unable to report it on the correct figure on the EI reporting website, as alleged by the EI department. My main problem here is with the unfairness of the Canadian government EI department itself, ruthlessly chasing for fines and penalties 3 years after the fact. The tardiness and delays within Canada Post is only a contributing factor.
But for fairness sake, maybe the whole "coronavirus lockdown" starting back in 2020 Jan is a valid reason why the delays happened back then.
Hopefully the situation has improved for all the lower level frontline workers at Canada Post afterwards. The greedy scheming ruthless overly-paid upper management tyrants deserves no sympathy.
