Is the amount of time & energy that I will expend on seeking a proper Work Comp related claim & a Disability Retirement, after working there for 6 yrs & 3 months, from the USPS worth it? Considering all my options for current & future income, my current assets & liabilities, it looks to me that my time & energy is better spent focusing on current, more likely, less exhausting benefits driven by my own efforts that will yield greater results with less effort. I do know that it would best to never return to the USPS, based on what I have experienced through over 6 years of employment there. The dishonesty from the higher ranking leadership there, the reprisals for being honest about the tyrannical policies, the investigations into my efforts, with formal trial procedures, documented against me, simply for being unwilling to bow down to unjust USPS policies & practices, while the USPS harms it's own employees day after day for what many consider generous pay & benefits. But, what is a person's life worth? What is a person's health & happiness worth? Sometimes the wisest choices are to leave certain losses at the table and move to another table or establishment all together, where there is a more honesty, less bureaucracy, and greater control of outcomes. To become our own boss, start our own means of income generation in a field that actually inspires us to thrive & serve a greater master. A master that is the Lord of lords & King of kings first & foremost. Sometimes it's better to leave the Temple of corruption and just follow God wherever He leads me, trusting in Him alone, above all of mankind. At some point it's time to leave Nineveh, and take part in the promises of the new covenant in Christ's sacrifice, which doesn't include trying to change the hearts & minds of the proverbial Temple priests or the Roman government. Instead, I should share what actually is good news with those who have ears to hear, and support myself the best way possible, as God leads me, to His promised land of a New Jerusalem, with the certain & imminent coming of His New Jerusalem so close at hand.

My visit to the ER resulted in various testing, to include blood pressure testing as I kneeled down & stood up, and the like, a blood draw, a CT Scan of my brain, yes, there is one in there, and a remote heart monitor that was attached to my chest for several days until I mailed it back in as directed by the attending ER Physician. So far all testing has been interpreted as showing no problems with my health. I do have a follow up visit with my Primary Care Physician scheduled in December, which was the soonest I could get.

Thinking about making a documentary video in regard to all that has happened and still is happening. Thoughts?

Should probably share some things that help others understand who I am and why I do what I do. My name is Michael Naumann. I was blessed to be raised by parents that I still consider good hard-working people. I have one younger sister whom I love and adore. I'm married to wonderful loving woman who at times struggles to understand why I take on such difficult tasks, but she is still with me and still loves me, as I love her, and am blessed by God to have her, as well as all the family, friends and loved ones that I have. I retired from the U.S. Army in 2008, after 22 years of service in Active Duty, as I started out after high school, and in the Minnesota Army National Guard in both the 47th Infantry Division and the 34th Infantry Division as a proud "Red Bull". I was anything but an overachiever in high school, except when it came to biology class and a writing class. The army taught me many things, one of the most important things is that a person can do just about anything they set their mind to as long as we're willing to do the work, accept & learn from the failures, and just keep driving on with great care & attention to detail, knowing that we succeed as a team and fail as a team. Selfish goals and Individual accolades are all meaningless when I'm dead on the battlefield or worse yet, when a fellow soldier is dead on the battlefield because I failed to do my job, or teach my subordinates how to do my job in my absence. It's been blessing after blessing for me, as well as curse after curse. The blessings have all been due to God and the curses have all been due to my failure to recognize God's Truth. I have failed in many, many, many ways, and thank God that I have, because all my failures have been points of learning & strengthening. Some of the more interesting facts: I have been accepted for a position with the FBI but declined it, wouldn't have graduated high school if it weren't for my Army Recruiter, graduated at the top of my class for AIT (Advanced Individual Training at Aberdeen Proving Grounds), was the Company, Battalion & Brigade Mechanic of the Quarter at Ft Sill, been divorced 3 times, once while in Iraq, was an Honor Grad for a Combat Life Saver course at Camp Shelby, had a 4.0 GPA through 2 years of weekend & evening classes for business administration at Augsburg College, before I left due to the removal of their weekend or evening classes. I've had way too many car accidents, had "mommy issues" due to the divorce between my parents when I was 7. I have upset more of my leaders than I can even account for, because of my stance on doing the right thing no matter what. I won't deliberately lie TO you or FOR you, period.

Last week, I took 2 air samples and one dust sample to be tested by an independent, certified lab, after having ordered their test kit. Yesterday I delivered the test kit & samples to that lab. Will post the results of that testing here when I have them, which should be within the next 2 weeks. I have shared almost all these things I have shared here with my USPS supervisor and his supervisor. They have been silent for the last few days.
