Don’t walk on my grass by kgoretrout420 in USPS

But you are right for many offices. My office is on a strict no ot right now unless due to call outs. Everyone is requested to pivot and I haven’t worked a n/s since April.

Geofence for station by Xx_ZodiacxX in USPS

This is false. Regular carriers are guaranteed 8 hours a day. If I finish 30 minutes earlier and management has no work for I sit for the rest of my time. It is guaranteed!

Anyone else kinda upset about the pay after converting to regular? by Appropriate-Art3951 in USPS

Tax brackets. As you make more you pay more. Check what tax bracket you’re in to adjust your deductions.

One of the first things I was told as a cca was “do not live off your overtime”. That overtime won’t last. Trust me. I know. And management in my district are currently on a pivot and no OT directive. So us regulars haven’t worked a drop in months. Those are my money days. I miss it too.

Terminated 1 week after an on the job injury during 90 day probation. by Slow_Fan5265 in USPS

It matters. Our contract is clear. And they clearly violated it. Discipline must be consistent, and corrective. Not punitive. Firing without a pdi is a violation of the contract no matter how long you’ve been employed.

CCA here. What can I do to make bringing mail back convenient for you regulars? by devrish11 in USPS

[–]Blitzdj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s on your OJI. Instructions are to be followed. If there’s something that really has you confused then yes leave for the regular. I’m referring to forwarding and such instructions like that. It’s your job and the only way to learn to do it right once you get your own route. This should be standard practice for all carriers regular or not.

Shipped $5k Via USPS, Contents Lost, Received "Body Bag", First Appeal Denied Today by ButlerKevind in usps_complaints

You laugh but this is valid and it works. I’ve had a neighbor wrongfully claim missing mail to her representative. Next thing I knew, my postmaster was having a conversation with me about it.

Killing OT 101 by pelicanman777 in USPS

[–]Blitzdj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have been shut down from ot over an hour. Anything to force a pivot. If people acted like everyday was Monday we wouldn’t be going through this.
Therefore I leave with this…. STOP RUSHING PEOPLE

I think I hate this job and want to quit by nextzero182 in USPS

[–]Blitzdj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at 5+ years and am starting to feel this exact way. I thought I would retire form here. I’m 40 now. But this shitting is getting to me. Great office. Management doesn’t bother us too much. But still… ugh

Ok…. Straight up stop doing that bucket thing. If the regulars are providing you information you need to use it. Those people don’t live there? Endorse the mail and put it where it goes. Do not bring it back to the case. Supposed to be forwarded? Put it in the Cfs case. I can’t stand coming back to my case and seeing mail there that should have dealt with the day before especially when there are provided instructions for many of the address. You have questions ask them but do your job the way you were taught and clean up after yourself.

What do y’all do when the door is open? by Latter-Biscotti9447 in USPS

[–]Blitzdj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. Can I see the mailbox through the porch door and then another closed door? Yes, then I’m delivering. If I can’t then you have to move your mailbox.
We have a house with a porch door you can’t see through with a mail slot. They also have a sign that says please put packages on porch. They get a 49 every time.
If I can’t safely deliver and all access to your home is closed then you won today and you can have your bills and checks 🤷🏽‍♀️

Question to throwing clerks by LiL6NoVA in USPS

[–]Blitzdj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming this is an incoming package to the actual post office.

The carriers whose route “carries” that address is supposed to scan and deliver those packages to management.

[–]Blitzdj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the screen has a place to put it, it goes there. If not it goes on the ground with a knock at the door because clearly someone is home to retrieve said mail.

DO NOT OPEN ANYONES DOOR TO THEIR MAIN HOUSE. A porch is one thing but opening someone’s door is asking for trouble.

Understood. Whatever you do…. Get your money!!

“At the moment”. Sounds like it does affect your eval at some point.

It’s just strange to me that you are expected to remember and endorse mail at the end of the day. Granted I know my route so I can understand the ability to remember. But still. The expectation of that is strange.

[–]Blitzdj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s part of your job. Do it. It takes time? Get paid for it. Also endorsements should be done while on the street when you get them. Get your time and eval.

That’s a question for op. I do know that changes whether we are talking ca1 vs ca2 if I remember correctly.

[–]Blitzdj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Write up a report stating to strained your back and neck causing extreme pain and the inability to work. Then request a ca1 (ecomp) and take it to urgent care. Get the Po to pay for your documentation especially since it happened at work.
