    I carried Mail November 1977 to October of 1984 .It was a tough job then its even worse now. Avg office time was about 4 -4.5 hrs now it is 1.5-2 hrs. I stopped carrying because they made me carry too much weight injuring my left shoulder. I moved inside and rose to Et 9 when I retired after 40 yrs 1mo. No one wants to work there because of supervision .

    I would have no issues in working for the Postal Service, but they can't give me continual hours throughout the week. Plus, you don't get any kind of benefits to start. Sometimes you have to wait a long time in order to get benefits, plus you have to use your own car.

    • @lovely31bluprint
      @lovely31bluprint 20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      You are absolutely correct because those job positions are non-career positions. You have to wait two years to get all the benefits, but you will be PTF depending on the location city and state those positions are careers.

    Cons :
    Work you from 8-16hrs a day ( depending on office AND if it has Amazon)
    Management is absolutely brutal
    LAZY CO-WORKERS!!!
    Dogs, heat, cold
    ZERO LIFE, your working EVERY Saturday ( Sunday in Amazon hub offices ), oh yeah, ALL HOLIDAYS ( if your newbie )
    PLENTY OF STRESS
    Working in the dark without proper or ANY safety gear
    Pro's:
    Alot of cash, which will come in handy for your early funeral costs
    Worker for 30yrs

    Enjoy a lack of work life balance? No problem. come work above 40-60hrs with no weekends.
    Come deal with station supervisors who have the people skills of an escaped convict, will expect you to meet arbitrary metrics and play favorites.
    Living in CA? Come join the only federal agency with no locality pay well pay you the same flat wage as someone in Missouri 🤡 work for roomate wages.
    Were looking to trim labor costs so dont expect much overtime in the future. Come join the next gig job.

    You don't want to take this job. Your milage will come up missing your sign on bonus goid luck getting that. Smaller offices they will make you buy your own car and for the gas and to plate it. Good luck on any reimbursement. It is a 90 working day PROBATION not 90 days. And I'm not even going into the abuse you will get. Because I feel they really don't want you to work there. This comes from first-hand experience. This is in Illinois..

    NO WAY. Not until USPS does something intelligent about the master key situation (which is archaic and imbecilic), security, training and arming their drivers, etc. In fact, it could be a TWO person job: one to drive and protect, one to deliver. It'd nearly eliminate theft altogether.
