This shit. This fucking useless banter while there are people on the line in the middle of processing something. God, really brings me to a stabby mood. >_
Untrue..there’s no postal exam, drug test anymore….reason is the managers had a hard time getting their kids jobs there🤣😂🤣😂 oh and now you can have a criminal record.
Every time I have to make a trip to the post office, I think of this skit. I always chuckle to myself; the painfully long lines, the hassles of buying the stupid bubble wrap, tape, or correct sized parcel, the one lady who always has an attitude and closes her counter right when it's your turn.....even the awkward shamble that some of the postal workers have.
FerrariCarr whenever I went to the post office in a large town or city it’s so true... I go to one in a small town and it’s so different, the post office lady was always so helpful and there was rarely anybody there. One of the few perks (there’s not many) of small town living.
if only the post office could work like fast food, when its fast of course ;) people steal tape all the time, its particularly annoying when u see PRIORITY tape on packages that are not PRIORITY, Mailhandler, USPS speaking here, 19 years - i work MUCH harder and faster than the zombie window clerks at our post office, i would try to move the line faster than about 12 window clerks that i've seen... its almost this conceit, this entitled federal job that they have no way of losing unless they kill someone, or steal - seen more than a few fired that way! the post office is polluted badly with corruption, from affirmative action for vets/blax, antiman genderism, to nepotism and simply lowering standards as to testing with no 70lb test anymore for mailhandlers... i'm giving u thumbs up, as the problem is wide and systemic...
In my country, they closed all post offices 20 years ago. We have zero today. Parcels are sent to the nearest gas station or grocery store, so you have to ask a cashier to leave the till and go pick up your parcel. In Scandinavia, epitome of infrastructure
Portlandia is the funniest show ever! Once went on a date with a girl who said she was from Portland. I said "No way! Is it anything like that Portlandia show"? She got really annoyed and said "yes". Haha!
Am I the only one noticing and laughing so hard at 0:34 when Fred pokes his head out and makes the "oh shit" face before going back in?? XD i can't help but wonder if that was a blooper left in or part of the script lol
I went to fiag down my postman for a package in my neighborhood and he flat out told me he doesn’t deliver to my address, and I said I’ve seen you at my address every day, and then he said oh yeah that’s right. Then he looked for my package in the truck. Wtf?
LOL I'll tell you something though being a long time mail carrier. It is really difficult to deal with people flagging us down to go find their packages. Everything is basically in order and we are on a tight schedule. We often then have to dig it out from under and mountain of other packages. It's best to wait until it is delivered to your house. If 5 people come up and ask for this during the day which can happen, it puts you behind by about 1/2 and hour or so which is a significant delay on the street. Just fyi.
@@wordswordswords8203I do think there is a sense of entitlement some people have towards federal employees because of the whole “our taxes pay your salary” thing, without considering that this is another person just trying to do their job. Not a federal employee, just an observation based on how people treat police etc.
The truly scary thing is, about half the people watching this video will continue to hold the view of "Yes, I would like the government to control even more aspects of my life."
I’ll take a government body, accountable to regulation bodies and the public over an anarchistic/corporate centric hellscape any day. Yes, some government institutions are mismanaged, but that’s why you reform them. The irony is that your ability to even make your comment is due to government research grants, infrastructure grants, oversight etc. that would not exist if corporations/individuals had their say. You think you don’t want government “meddling”, what you mean is you don’t want to pay your fair share of taxes/pay your employees a fair wage or provide health benefits and so want to lessen govt oversight.
when she says "i'm locked out" and just walks off. i could relate to that. i worked at p.o. for many years. it's like a mash unit. you get so tired and numb, beyond jaded. you don't really understand until you've been through it.
It's scary to think how close to reality this is. The first minute I am thinking this is EXACTLY my local post office. Like down to the trash pieces on the floor. The random printed signs everywhere. How you get to the counter and they make you go back and fill out another form! How the person closes their station (goes on break) at the most inconvenint times. Wow.
I lived in Portland for two years. It was the worst two years of my life. The coldest, meanest people on Planet Earth: dark, phony, and creepy. It was like living in an episode of the Twilight Zone.
Am I the only one who noticed the sign with the girl by the door changed from "Shipping...Priority? ...." 0:23 to "I got a package and it was this big" LMAO 0:26 Subtle.
It _isn't_ accurate though, especially outside the U.S.... I guess some U.S. POs have issues, but even in the U.S. many are just fine. I've never had any problem more serious than long lines.
Wait, where is the contradiction? My point is that his statement, which asserts that post-offices "everywhere" are the same, isn't accurate, because there are places where post-offices offer a very good experience (example: Japan). I've had many good experiences in U.S. post-offices as well, so "everywhere" isn't accurate there either. There are certainly cases where post-offices offer bad service, nobody denies that. The problem arises when people try to generalize their individual experiences and assert that they reflect something _universal_.
This is very funny but I have to say that my post office here is Emeryville is excellent. Seldom a long line, very efficient, and nice postal clerks. Just a plug, they are not all terrible.
Start your novel on page one. You’ll be finished by the time you get to the front of the line… that is of course your novel happens to be “Gone with the Wind, or possibly, “The Gulag Archipeligo”.
Vanessa should be a massive head liner above title actor star by now. She is superb in everything I've ever seen her in. Her management and agent team sucks.
LOL I worked at the post office for decades and it really is like this. Except that back is WAY more full and disorganized. The "kill me please line" is on about every postal workers mind, believe me. You think you are suffering when you go there, it's 1000 times worse for us. TIP YOUR MAIL CARRIER AT CHRISTMAS.
Why is this so accurate, omg... Yet I'm not even American, I'm a freaking Russian dealing with Russian Postal Service, and this shit happens every time I visit their office. Like, every thing mentioned in the video. Thought you guys have a better experience in such things, but nah, looks like the same fucking shit.
19 years at the post office, do u REALLY want the details? affirmative action for vets/blax/women, lowering standards, no more 70lb test, nepotism, lowered morale due to a corporate style of cost cutting that sees contracts go down the hill everytime... its getting blacker, dumber, more women, vets who get extra points... i EARNED my job, 4 year degree and aced the megaexam with no jock points or dark skin or nepotism, etc... the job is like a dead end, because in some areas u pretty much HAVE to keep it, nothing better as to pay - u r stuck with people u don't want to work with as well... its almost better moving up in life gradually and not watching yourself in stagnation... actually it now takes a full 18 years of work to max out as to your pay getting up to middle class, etc... when i started the max out was 13 years as to the contract... benefits and pay have been gutted repeatedly, its turning into this scab labor outsourced kind of corporate bottomline mentality... we had a wage freeze for two years once... medical used to be paid at 88%, now dropping closer to 75%, etc... overall i'ts GREAT because i live in a very poor deep south town with union protections and relative to my previous work record its a BLUE COLLAR GOLD MINE
PO employees frequently have to deal with some of the absolute worst people, so it's very difficult to stay chipper. It takes a certain type to survive that job.
I know. I worked there for 31 years. you have to be crazy and willing to deal with all kinds of shit. most people who work there are misfits. it's how we survive.
This is soooooooo real life true. There's always "that one lady" who's 80 years old in front of you that's mailing 50 things somewhere and takes 20 minutes.
I live in Portland, one time I forgot my bike on the bus and I went through this exactly. I went to one warehouse and they didn't have it, even tho I called them a bunch of times, then it had to go away out to the bus hq and get it, was so sketch! Straight up resident evil.
Last 2 times I went to the Post Office was because they left notes for me to pick something up and every time I go, whatever whoever sent me is never there.
oh my god, just like my postoffice. I mail a lot of packages so I print postage at home. The first time I went I asked if they could scan the labels so I have proof of mailing. They told me " we dont do that" . Love this scene.
They should have shown the customer (usually an old woman) who wants to buy stamps, and wants to see every different stamp design. Then finally chooses the plain American flag stamp. And just buys one.
i’ve only ever had efficient and courteous service at the Post Office, right?, because the Postal workers know exactly where each and every one us lives, and who we know, and where we bank, and where we work and how much we make; so the Post Office is great, right? -C
Not normally one to critique this show but man... it would’ve been way better if they didn’t add the horror twist and just left it at the very accurate/realistic shitty service. Still funny but it went from gold to cardboard
I usually don't have a problem with the post office other than waiting in line. Same thing at the grocery store. Not sure what the big deal is all about, just read the instructions
I've never had much trouble in the southeast, and in small towns the post office staff can be quite nice. So perhaps it's regional. I've seen some extremely bad post offices overseas though - like, stand in line for an hour and be told "oh, we can't ship packages overseas from here. You'll have to go to another city to send this."
It’s funny because I saw him in a more recent interview/round table thing and he really kind of does have that front of the head balding pattern in his actual hair now.
Completely unrelatable. I've spent a lot of time at various post offices and I never have a problem and only occasionally do I have to deal with lines. Might be that way in a garbage city like Portland but where I'm from we don't have any such problems.
I actually had a similar experience at the Sellwood post office in Portland. I don't know why my package got sent there, it's like 3 post offices away from my residence, but I had to go there multiple times to try and convince them to give me the package they failed to deliver 😬
Everyone in front of me in line are always applying for passports or have some issue that requires several long forms. They also have endless questions. I notice when the customer starts to chit chat that the employee pauses whatever they are doing to respond.
This would be so relatable except there are more than two workers which is too many
Vienna Jordan Thanks to the constant budget cuts
Lol indeed. I have two aunts that retired from Post office. They always had stories!

This is not a sketch. This is a documentary of what it is actually like going to the post office.
There's always at least one postal employee with unfortunate bad hair issues or body disfigurement
I went to the post office this week. I can confirm that this statement is correct.
The employee grabbing her in the basement was the employee of the month on the poster upstairs.
Never noticed that before. Good catch
Good job!

the job is like a dead end, because in some areas u pretty much HAVE to keep it, nothing better as to pay - u r stuck with people u don't want to work with as well... its almost better moving up in life gradually and not watching yourself in stagnation... actually it now takes a full 18 years of work to max out as to your pay getting up to middle class, etc... when i started the max out was 13 years as to the contract...
benefits and pay have been gutted repeatedly, its turning into this scab labor outsourced kind of corporate bottomline mentality... we had a wage freeze for two years once... medical used to be paid at 88%, now dropping closer to 75%, etc...

How it feels like to be in the waiting room of a hospital
I actually had a similar experience at the Sellwood post office in Portland. I don't know why my package got sent there, it's like 3 post offices away from my residence, but I had to go there multiple times to try and convince them to give me the package they failed to deliver 😬
Now we know why the Post Office is in trouble.
Everyone in front of me in line are always applying for passports or have some issue that requires several long forms. They also have endless questions. I notice when the customer starts to chit chat that the employee pauses whatever they are doing to respond.
I used to work for the USPS and yes, in a way this is somewhat true. lol
Freds face at 0:34 always gets me!
In the end they should’ve said “We got a runner” 😂
