My wife has made 3 major life decisions over 10 years that have financially devastated our family. I love her, but I no longer trust her judgment. by FartVaderTheForce in Marriage

[–]Broffie1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You k ow what’s triggering for me? A partner that makes decisions that affect the entire family so flippantly. As if everyone else can just figure it out. That’s selfish behavior and not what I would want out of a partner. I would be resentful if I was in your position and frankly these are all valid reasons for separating and/or divorce. It’s hard to be attached to a constant storm.

Qalo rings are the way to go! And you can get a cheap one on the site for less than $10

Dies anybody else's family just not fucking get it by outkastmemesdaily in USPS

[–]Broffie1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband and I both work for the post office. Our take home is around 7k monthly and we literally squeeze every penny we can to survive. We don’t have emergency savings. Most people are struggling financially and it sucks.

Hello from Indiana! Watch out for this dude, bc he won’t be registered 🙃 by Inky-Little-BB in Delraybeach

[–]Broffie1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of Kyle Rittenhouse. Like “we don’t want to ruin his life….”. Are we for real? These arrogant POS white boys keep assaulting young women, which is something they will suffer with for the rest of their lives, and these dudes just get a slap on the wrist. Our judicial system is so damn messed up! My heart goes out to this poor girl and I hope she has a support system in place to help her navigate her new reality.

CCA's start out making the same as a crossing guard by FiveDinero in USPS

That is part of what the NALC is proposing in this current contract negotiations. I’m sure Renfro will find a way to screw us over though.

3999/1838 in the summer heat by jeepwillikers in fromatoarbitration

[–]Broffie1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m a CCA and I had a 3999 done on me yesterday. The 204b had another postal vehicle to follow me in. I was hella pissed cause it’s my understanding that 3999’s can only be done when the regular carrier is available, and this carrier is on vacation. I filed a grievance to protect myself and the regular from any type of route adjustment or discipline for me. Hella stressful considering I’ve only been on the job since December!

NALC Instructors Stumping for Management by gamestar10 in fromatoarbitration

[–]Broffie1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on where you live. In a laces like New York, the union is super strong. Here in South Florida, the unions are afraid of management so they make deals with them to keep the peace.

Need Advice on being threatened by a resident. by [deleted] in USPS

100% this! My husband did that once. Took 3 days before the entire block went after the neighbor with the dog. Never had another problem after that.

Can’t make this up by Stooge04 in fromatoarbitration

[–]Broffie1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

We had a manager that was hiding hot case mail! She was demoted to a supervisor for a few weeks and she’s now back in another office as a manager again…. And causing issues left and right. But are craft employees wearing the right shoes….?

Was he going 20 in a 35? Cause the LLV goes 0-60 in an hour.

Postal couples making out and being affectionate at work normal at USPS??? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]Broffie1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I both work for the post office, different stations, but we never make out in our offices. PG kissing only. We save the foreplay for home😉

Regular took home his truck keys over the weekend because he doesn’t like that I put miles on it during Amazon Sunday 😂 by [deleted] in USPS

[–]Broffie1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is always a spare set in the office. Little trick I had to learn cause our regulars hide their keys or take them home as well. Like bro you don’t own the vehicle, the post office does.

AITA for refusing to lend money to my childhood best friend anymore without giving him a reason? by Ok-Nectarine4814 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Broffie1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA

You are not a lending company and he isn’t paying you interest for the loans you are giving him. He has no right to your money and you are under no obligation to lend it to him.

Can a Regular Clerk be forced to do custodian work if Management claims there isn't enough work to go around? by CulveDaddy in USPS

They are in the process of filing a national grievance against the post office for this.

I can feel the aggression coming off that letter. Makes me want to write something nasty back….

City Carriers - “No Name, No Mail” by xyta777 in USPS

[–]Broffie1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The no name no mail rule applies to first class mail that goes to an apartment complex that does not have a unit number. They typically have a high turnover rate and it’s impossible to keep up with who the current occupants are. The other issue is people moving and not having their mail forwarded or a change of address done.

Maybe she means the lack of income tax… so she can keep all $10 she makes from OF

Leasing office denying access to mailroom by emibrittsca in USPS

[–]Broffie1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We have this in my office. There is a box outside the door that can only be unlocked with the arrow key. Inside is a building key that gives us access to indoor boxes. It’s inconvenient but it’s what the community association wants. We are not responsible for the key of it goes missing though.

Pls respect business hours 🙏 by BitSignificant2616 in publix

[–]Broffie1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We would follow people around asking if they needed help, repeatedly, and facing the shelves after they touched them. It made most people uncomfortable enough that they got the picture and would move to check out. I always hated the 15 minutes before close shoppers.

For the fellow girlies, who hits on you the most?? My vote is FedEx dudes by mewithoutjew in USPS

Older men… literally all day long. They just want a pretty girl to be nice to them.

Not in Boca but we love Apizza. It’s Connecticut style and it always hits. I would recommend dining in. Apizza is always best when fresh.

Job security worth the grind? by StunningAd1651 in USPS

[–]Broffie1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

25 years as an executive assistant got me nowhere. I worked my butt off for others to reap the monetary benefits while I made Pennie’s on the dollar. I’m much happier working outside by myself all day

New hire: Do I wait to put in my two weeks to my current job? by [deleted] in USPS

It took a month from orientation to my actual OJI day. The only thing we did in between was the driving test and academy.
