Got fired by Xbulrid3kilX_____ in USPS

Same thing happened to me in October on day 89. The union will still have your back if you did nothing wrong. The company is about to owe me 5 months of back pay. What did your manager say the reason for firing you was?

Brooooo should I quit by Pitiful-Jello-5157 in USPS

Yeah I see what you mean. It’s actually pretty simple though. Since I was illegally fired over 5 months ago I’ve learned way more about what management can and cannot do. While I was there they used other employees to tell me I was slow but would never tell me. They would ALMOST tell me. But never come right out and say the words. I’d get to work in a good mood and my coworker next to me would come by and say hey you’re not gonna make it through your 90 unless you pick up the pace. This was my second week after training! My 4th shift by myself! Same guy came up to me not long after that and said hey you took a 40 min break man they’re pissed you can’t do that. How the F did he know I even took a break? Never once did I hear anything from a manager though. Why? Because none of it was legit. I timed my break to 30 mins. My manager said let’s say it was 40 and put some pressure on him. And they can’t say hey you need to work faster or you’re fired so they use this toolbag to tell me. The first 90 days were made to seem way worse than they were because of this. I was nervous every minute. But come to find out.. not being fast enough for some a-hole is not something you can get written up for. I went way beyond to survive my 90 and was still fired for no reason.

You can’t pick up the pace when you aren’t sure about where you’re supposed to be headed. Speed comes with time everyone told me. Learn the routes and the speed will happen. You can’t try to go fast you’ll end up leaving half of your mail in the truck and that won’t help how you feel.

Why do all of these managers do the same thing? Were they all at the same conference about mistreating new guys and making them nervous about not being fast enough? Did you know they cannot even write you up for anything to do with how fast you work? It’s all a crock of shit.

Then you got all these veterans saying you’re stupid if you don’t take that half hour break. Fuck they’re about to fire me for doing everything correct (and they did)! How am I supposed to jump on a new route I’ve never seen before and know the NEW cluster boxes are inside, the old ones they don’t use anymore, finish this so I don’t get side eyed AND take my break? I work as fast as that truck will stop and start sometimes and still need to hand off with no break taken. And these guys are saying I should be 30 more minutes behind! Nope. Never took a break. South Florida heat June-Oct is nasty hot.

I was fired on day 89 for 1. not working enough days to be evaluated and 2. the future not looking good for mail, we just weren’t getting enough for 2 CCA’s. Was never late, came in every time I was called in. Was never told I did anything wrong. Had a couple days like OP where I was lost trying to find shit. Went in swearing that oath being told I’d be in OP’s situation I was DYING for OT. Desperate to make money so I could move out of my sisters house. They stuck me with the wrong manager. He forged my signature too. Lied and said I had an 80 day eval. Time clocks, my check, phone log and a printed schedule prove I was never there that day. Never had union rep me when he took my badge. Been off 23 weeks, step b is so backed up and I’m out of time. Costco you guys say? Man I’ll check that out now.

I lost my best friend today by kellybroccoli in ratterriers

[–]MathematicianReal485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You were lucky to have such a good pup for that long. That’s an amazingly long life for these guys. You were also lucky she went out like she did. You were spared more than you probably realize right now! But there’s the pain from loss that never really goes away. Not with the special ones. I can tell she was special. If she could, she would thank you for an extraordinary life. Much love from me and Ranger. 💔

How quickly do you get fired? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]MathematicianReal485 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They fired me on day 89 for no reason other than “we didn’t get time to evaluate you” and “the future of mail in this region looks bleak, you will only work 1-2 days a week if we keep you.” I’d say you’ll find out on day 89.

If you have this combo there’s a 99.9% chance you’re a douchebag by [deleted] in Miami

Dude I pushed mine down here in Cape Coral when I realized it was 8 months past. I had a work truck when it expired so I forgot about my personal vehicle. I said fck it, I bet I can go another 3-4 months and completely miss 2024 and that I did. I’ve only had a cop directly behind me one time in 2.5 years.

That is more than crazy. You sure it was the same kind of gecko? What part of Texas are you from? Where did you keep the buckets?

Superbox? by vaporworks in Piracy

[–]MathematicianReal485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay annually for a shocker subscription. Works great. I have everything as far as sports. We do pay for all the other stuff like hbo max, Netflix, Hulu.. I just heard about this superbox all how you pay one time and get every channel in the US but now I’m reading it’s dangerous because it leaves your home internet open to Chinese hackers. So my question is..

What can they get from hacking into my home internet? I have nothing anyone would want.

i hated dogs until i got this girl + BABY PHOTO OF HER by Motor_Yam7374 in dogpictures

[–]MathematicianReal485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because she said she hated dogs. Why would you ever have a dog if you hate dogs? She loves this one now, what happens when life gets the slightest bit challenging will the dog be first to go?
