Postal workers in Detroit, Atlanta outraged over workplace deaths of Nick Acker and Russell Scruggs Jr.

The WSWS is continuing to receive new comments from postal workers in response to the deaths of Nick Acker on November 8 at a United States Postal Service facility near Detroit and of Russell Scruggs Jr. near Atlanta, Georgia on November 15.

Several postal workers spoke to a WSWS reporting team at the distribution center in downtown Detroit about Acker’s death.

One worker, Kim, said, “They are really not saying much about what happened, except that it was a two-man job and [Nick] knew it. But I say, even if he knew it was a two-man job, that wasn’t the first day he did that. You knew what was going on. They don’t care about us period.”
