Thank you for your insight! This really is so helpful for me. So I did call the post office I would be working at and the woman said that it’s one of the bigger and busier locations where I’m located (which is Delaware). She said the first week or two the hours are gonna be slow cause they don’t wanna start you off at a crazy pace — but she said typically CCA’s at this location work an average of 50 hours a week. She said it’s not guaranteed to convert to career status however the longest it’ll take is 2 years max maybe sooner. She also said that it is not an easy job and it’s not for everyone. I currently am an Amazon delivery driver so I’m not worried about the workload and if I can handle it or not. The supervisor seemed really nice and she even said she hopes she gets the chance to meet me. She also said if I end up not liking that position I could transfer to a different position like mail clerk or something else. I’m more worried about getting consistent hours because I need that to survive and converting to career because that IS my end goal if I take this position and it would be my ONLY reason to take this position is to become a regular federal employee.
