Acting Employee Resource Management VP Rosemarie Fernandez
CHRO Jeffrey C. Williamson has named Rosemarie Fernandez acting vice president, Employee Resource Management.
Fernandez, a 35-year postal employee who began her career as a clerk in Van Nuys, CA, has been manager of the San Francisco District since 2010. She is a former manager of the Sacramento District and served from 2000 to 2004 as Postmaster of San Francisco.
A Lean Six Sigma executive green belt, Fernandez was named District Manager of the Year by the National Postal Customer Council in Sept. 2011. She also has received a Vice President’s award from USPS and was named as one of the “Most Influential Women in the Bay Area” by the San Francisco Business Times.
Fernandez assumes her new duties June 3.
I worked with Rosemarie in her earlier years with the Postal Service and she is an awesome mentor/person! Her strength was her fairness and acting on “the facts”! Congratulations Rosemarie, well deserved! Pen
Rosemarie full well knows, as well does everyone else in the San Francisco District, that this IS NOT a promotion of any kind, but rather a sift kick in her relatively large gluteus maximus. Shame on Rosemarie for bad mouthing the previous District Manager in her going away speech. The 2,800 mile commute to her so-called new job in Washington, DC. should get her attention that this is not a promotion. Submit your retirement papers, if hadn’t done so already. Adios Bruja!
Another typical product of inbreeding and nepotism in mismanagement and why without removing Donahoe and the clowns at headquarters nothing will change and the PO will keep losing billions even if a reform bill gets to Obama’s desk.And also wonder why her husband, Kim Fernandez, Bay Valley District Manager was summoned to headquarters and forced to retire last year so Jim Clausen from Minneapolis District could replace him.
She doesn’t look lean to me! Maybe she’s got an overactive thyroid.
Figures – a cut throat job killer with a degree you can get through the internet. Isn’t that the kind that always gets promoted? The worse you are, the bigger ass kisser you are or the closer you’re related to certain people the better your odds of climbing the postal ladder. There are a couple of families in my state where it seems just being born practically guarantees you a postmaster job. That’s a crock of shit. Not that this is news.
desperate times, lead to desperate promotions..no people skills, unions hate her and just a HS diploma….don’t blame Rosie….Its Patty cake time!!!
She was actually Dist Mgr in San Francisco. Talk about good riddance to bad rubbish! San Francisco will be thrilled to get rid of this creature. Her (ex?) husband was the Oakland Dist Mgr up until last year then he suddenly retired two weeks after the announcement. For the record, Ms Fernandez has a bachelors degree from University of Phoenix, which tells you everything about her background. We’ve seen her in action at a couple of AMP presentations, where she appeared to take great delight in shutting down facilities resulting in the displacement of a lot of jobs. Now she’s got a high level job in human resources, doesn’t that figure! 35 years, time to retire, Big Rosie! Another autocratic mgr at the PO elevated to continually higher levels over the past 35 years! More obsolescence by design at the PO, brought to you by Pat Donahoe. Turn out the lights, it’s time to finally shut the place down.
Today’s secret word is “featherbedding”. A manager in charge of employee resource management? What resources? A fleet of LLV’s that are falling apart? Scanners that move slower than a supervisor’s brain waves? Constant shortages of the most basic necessities like 3849’s? Or is it resource management for finding the cushiest hotels with the best brothels and golf courses for those oh so important management meetings?
How about us city carriers being called something like “quality control product dissemination managers” and a worthy salary increase in relation to the title? Sounds like some of the offices in Washington, D.C. As Dave Barry noted in one of his hilarious books, he said, and I paraphrase, when you go to Washington you’re likely to rub shoulders with the Second Under Assistant Deputy Secretary to the First Under Assistant Deputy Secretary of Sewer Infrastructure. It’s all in the title for these useless blowhards. I agree – 35 years is long enough. At least craft employees who stay that long or longer actually contribute something. I’m sure this woman will have a full staff to bully and issue all matter of useless statements and stupid “programs” that have nothing to do with the actual business of delivering mail. That’s the L’Infant Plaza way.

What another VP? How many we up to 33….34? We’re so broke but mgmt keeps increasing. We have money to roll out 1990’s era obsolete cell phones with GPS to track us. They have the gall to want to reopen negotiations. They want us out of FEHBP to create a Postal run third world health care coverage. Used to love my job, this is not the job I signed on for. C’mon mgmt offer an early out already many of us will go even without incentives, just want to go without the 5% peryear penalty
