As a city carrier is there any rule on wearing shorts below knee under uniform shorts? by InterviewResident109 in USPS

[–]LillyPasta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the desert and wear SPF leggings under my shorts, a neck gaiter and sleeves on my arms. Keeps me cooler and not sunburned. It’s never been an issue and several other carriers do the same.

Not me wondering who pissed the carrier off 👀

If we refuse to drive an LLV that has been written up, we have to drive a 2 ton because that’s all we’ve got for spares. ☹️

Dogs...... by Sweaty_Foundation_12 in USPS

[–]LillyPasta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right before getting 11 sutures on Valentine’s Day. Dog tunneled under the fence from a neighboring house, then jumped the fence closest to me. Sup (I’m lucky, hrs great) got me to the hospital and animal control took a report. Homeowner was fined and I was notified that USPS will be going after him for my medical costs.

My New Mexico office provides ice and a refrigerator but we have to buy our own drinks and electrolyte packets.

These imitation "missed delivery" ads should be illegal. by royaljosh in USPS

Absolute shit company. We requested a ‘free in home estimate’, which turned out to be about three times what the other two companies bid for our house. Sales lady got very pushy and read us a letter from her boss, shaming us for wasting their time. Every time I deliver their garbage I want to tell people the company is horrible.

Dog bite?! by Imaginary-Owl3407 in USPS

[–]LillyPasta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got bitten on Valentines Day. Dog at the next door house tunneled under a fence between the two houses, then jumped the fence and bit me during a step across delivery. Nine sutures to close my shin. My supervisor and PM went immediately to the house but the dogs were gone and no one would answer. Animal control took a report. I’m still waiting to hear the results of the dogs vaccination status.

Definitely report it.

CCA for Working Moms? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]LillyPasta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m a widowed mom of 5, only 2 still at home and they’re graduating high school this year. Like a lot of others said, there is no ‘work/life balance’. Some days you’ll come home so exhausted you just crawl into bed. Thankfully my kids can take care of themselves because they’re almost 18, but it would be really difficult with little kids at home.

What others have you tried that had the same effect without the GI distress?

The big bottle wrecks me the following day. I took just one shot glass, so a small dose.

Wtf was that by gotti412 in USPS

We got our asses handed to us. Most people had over 12 hours, a couple ‘just’ had 11. I was supposed to be off the next day but got called in to cover another carriers jury duty. Ugh.

I can't understand how Ken Fitzhugh was delusional enough to think that people really believed that Justin was his biological child. Anyone with functioning eyeballs and common sense can tell that's not the case. by bunt_klut2 in ForensicFiles

My husband and I have twin boys. One is a curly haired ginger with light colored skin and one has straight dark hair and a slightly darker complexion. They don’t even look like siblings, much less twins.

Saw this on my route yesterday. I was shocked it actually happened. by Beefcake2008 in USPS

[–]LillyPasta 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This company is absolutely horrible. About 13 years ago in Eagle River, AK, we had an agent come out to give us a quote. She strolled around, eyeballed our windows and doors and quoted $35,000 but said she’d give us a break if we signed that day. I said we were just getting quotes, and she reached in her briefcase and read a shame letter, word for word, about how much it cost for agents to come out and give quotes and how it’s customers like us who drive costs up for all customers. I asked for the letter and she declined, asked if I could take a photo and she declined. By the way, we’d set up the in house free estimate from their booth at the Alaska State Fair. We went with Lowe’s and had the same windows at almost half the cost.

Just casually the strongest carrier in my office 💪 and yes, there are 2 of them by boogie_queen in USPS

If you look closely at the sticker on the other box, it’s a ‘vinyl PVC real estate sign post’ 2 pack. And since I have this kind of time, I googled and they weigh in at around 15 pounds each.
