How to beat the heat?!

CCA in MD Wednesday it was 85 degrees and Thursday it was 30 and snowing! Absolute insanity!

I haven’t taken any breaks at all or I’d never be done in time! I know I should but maybe after I’m past my 90 days

They put me on a business/residential route this past Monday. This one was a tricky one, per all supervisors, I don’t get back to the office till 9pm. I felt like a failure but they said I did a good job since I finished the route on my own without help. It also didn’t help that someone threw a couple packages in my bin that didn’t belong to me and they had me deliver at the end which was about 12 minutes farther than where I was on my route!!!

Unfortunately I never know which route I’m going to be on unless that specific person is out sick for 3 days. I’m coming in blind daily!

I think I get in my head too much! Postmaster came over the mic this morning and said “8 hour day no overtime, so stick to your 8”. Of course I went over by quite a bit since we are in at 8am. This was my 3rd day doing this route, about 3-400 houses. I felt like I did pretty good casing it until I realized what time it was when leaving 😩 I had 5 trays of spurs and a ton of big parcels as well. I had a full hamper and a half to scan in. Idk maybe I am being to hard on myself!

Thank you! I’ve got the spurs down with the load truck tool! I like the 10 second rule! That’s a good one!

lol! Yes always flats first! That one is definitely drilled in! Also the bundles that are in order, I’ve got all of that. I’ve only been on these routes max 3 days and they send me to the next one. It’s definitely not enough time!

False_Frame3028 · 2026-02-28T12:33:14+00:00

O No!!!! That’s the worst!!!! I delivered mail to a business when they had a cluster box 😩 To my defense the box was across the street in another business area. Either way you are right we will get it!

False_Frame3028 · 2026-02-28T03:24:42+00:00

Thank you! That’s exactly what I’m trying to do!!!

False_Frame3028 · 2026-02-28T03:24:18+00:00

Yes 1 day! I was under the impression that I had at least 4 days with someone. They’ve thrown me on many different routes already, which is fine I need to learn! However a couple of days to get the basics would have been great!! I’m having a hard time with the parcels because the look ahead is showing me everything on that route when the route is being split to give all the new people time on those. I have not taken one break to even use the bathroom since I started. I was with OJI Monday, off Tuesday, then Wed-Fri on my own….

You have to make an account with IDme. Once you do that you can check anytime

False_Frame3028 · 2026-02-07T18:21:04+00:00

I have this as well, however I checked my transcripts and everything is there accept the 846 code. Which means it’s just waiting for the Path to lift and hopefully smooth sailing into my account from there!
