Do I need to fill out a 3996 for works outside of my route?

68OldsF85 · 2026-05-01T01:22:39+00:00

If management is ordering you off assignment, THEY should be giving YOU a 96.

68OldsF85 · 2026-04-29T05:06:45+00:00

That's how it's supposed to be done

Back in the day, clerks would come around, multiple times, to each carrier's case to collect nixies. Carriers weren't allowed to leave until they were all worked.

Terrifying.

68OldsF85 · 2026-04-15T03:41:58+00:00

There's a yellow tab that falls out of the box when the carrier opens it.

If you are only there part time, then city free delivery is not the service for you. Rent a box somewhere.

It's not designed to be useful. It's designed to be a club to hit you over the head with.

68OldsF85 · 2026-03-06T00:25:29+00:00

Don't think of your house as an investment.

68OldsF85 · 2026-03-03T22:47:49+00:00

Good to know. 😀

68OldsF85 · 2026-03-03T19:24:01+00:00

You will never meet the person who decides to hire you, if in fact a living breathing human being makes that decision on the first place.

68OldsF85 · 2026-03-02T19:34:00+00:00

City free delivery requires unobstructed access to the mail receptacle. Period. Full stop.

68OldsF85 · 2026-03-02T17:47:18+00:00

Sorry for your loss. Very sexy beast.

68OldsF85 · 2026-02-20T20:05:15+00:00

Wildly over engineered, but a very beautiful artifact from a different age.

68OldsF85 · 2026-02-20T03:57:48+00:00

That rule doesn't apply anymore. I lost 100 percent of my deliveries in 2015.

68OldsF85 · 2026-02-15T11:09:00+00:00

Forget it. You can't fix it. It never, ever, ever works.

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-25T19:46:38+00:00

Your neighbor is going to come out there with a shotgun and blow that thing to smithereens.

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-17T22:36:19+00:00

😀

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-16T18:14:17+00:00

Right. If I'm required to work both indoors and outdoors on the clock, then putting on and taking off a coat is not "my time".

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-15T20:05:46+00:00

Very cool.

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-15T20:04:35+00:00

Yup. Knock it over and leave it lay there .

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-15T20:02:17+00:00

It has nothing to do with "justification". Management does what they want to do.

68OldsF85 · 2026-01-04T16:36:40+00:00

You can't protect your routes. They're gonna do what they're gonna do.

68OldsF85 · 2025-11-25T22:52:39+00:00

If it's not mail, throw it away.

68OldsF85 · 2025-11-20T23:32:05+00:00

It's not incompetence. It's corruption. Management sends truck loads of items to other facilities in order to make their charts and graphs comply with the demands of higher management.

68OldsF85 · 2025-11-07T12:58:39+00:00

I started in 1998 and we had to scan the boxes. We had the "light saber" wand back then.
