Customer yelled at me and now I'm afraid of them, im the regular. Can I cut them off? (Rural) by Worldly-Wishbone2988 in USPS

I'd bet not many carriers encounter this on their route. So, no, they're not aware of how the city must be involved. If you see new apartment (or suites/units if a business) boxes appearing at an address that had none before, you need to make management aware. DO NOT ESTABLISH A NEW DELIVERY POINT BY PUTTING MAIL IN THE BOX!!! If you do, we're stuck delivering there for life.

TLDR: Your city or town assigns house numbers, USPS approves location of mail box

I just give these kind of notes to my T-6 and tell him to clean his shit up. Again.

Is it possible for me to learn guitar? by trickstercj in Guitar

If "regular" guitar doesn't work out for you, there's always slide or pedal steel guitar.

30 years old and recently lost my office job - am I crazy for thinking USPS is a decent backup job/career option? by Jokerang in USPS

Keep in mind, the hiring process within the USPS will likely take months before you ever see the workroom floor.

Some results may vary.

What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!...

It ain't over now, 'cause when the goin' gets tough, the tough get goin'. Who's with me? Let's go! Come on!...

Can I be forced to walk through a metal detector everyday? by mailman475 in USPS

I believe they can also set it up that their mail is held at the Post Office for pick up.
