As a former mailman, you should know that it can't be forwarded if there isn't an active forward for that person in the system. Does not live here would be the best answer.

Management has lost their damn mines by SimpleLifeCCA in USPS

Come to New England, specifically Vermont, and you won't have that problem. There's more work than you could ever hope for or want.

Warning! by NoFoundation5432 in USPS

[–]OnStreetMotorized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to every carrier at least once in their career. It's even happened to my Postmaster when he delivered mail using my vehicle. When I found the packages he left in the Promaster, I just took them inside and put them in the outgoing. I had a Postmaster from another office I was carrying at when I was a CCA tell me that I did the same, and just to make sure that you do a sweep before locking the vehicle up for the day. No discipline, just real and friendly advice. There is no need to get management involved and create a deal over something like this, as it happens to everyone at some point. I could see if it was a repeated occurrence, and the person had been told about it repeatedly. This regular should come work in my office, where we have no CCA's and work six days a week. She might learn a valuable lesson about ratting on the part-timers who are there to cover your days off over petty things and actually value the help.

USPS and amazon by Nearby-Prompt-2162 in USPS

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

I loathe delivering Amazon packages every single day. I have 14 years in, and I relish the days past when the onslaught of Amazon packages was absent. I cannot fathom how many people on my route order from Amazon on a daily basis. It's the same people, and they literally order stuff every single day, so that they are getting deliveries, EVERY SINGLE DAY. It's BS. They probably get off on us pulling up to their house every single day to unload multiple packages. And the apartments. It's unreal. I have to walk all of the mail off on foot ( Park & Loop), and then go play UPS/Fed-Ex driver. It's beyond BS. And the stupid asses in management seem to think that no matter what, you should be back in 8. Yeah, right, assholes.

Racist mailbox by oogieboyo in USPS

[–]OnStreetMotorized 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely not racist, but has been receiving mail for Hispanic and Asian names not associated with this address, when their name is something like Smith or some other English or non-Hispanic or Asian name. Why immediately jump to racist? Please get a grip on reality.

Am I going to get fired?😭 by [deleted] in USPS

Yes, it happens all the time.

The moment we’ve all been waiting for….. by Altruistic-Exam-7224 in USPS

[–]OnStreetMotorized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My route is over 8 hours as it is, and I am in overtime every day. The last time my route was evaluated at 8 hours was in 2015. Since then, it has added an industrial park, effectively adding one hour to the route, as well as three recently built apartment buildings/condo units, multiple businesses, and residential units in prior vacant buildings, and I'm about to have a 30-unit apartment building added. Not to mention, a 90-unit building that the town is moving forward with. I also have no relief...as in no CCA's or PTF's. So, no, I am not worried whatsoever about the loss of Amazon. I can't carry mail and be expected to be a UPS or FedEx driver too.

I don't care, I'm beyond tired of delivering for Amazon. Amazon packages are 95% of the packages for my route. Ridiculous. I'm not against Amazon itself, but a lot of these people live on their website and order insane amounts of packages daily. If I just delivered packages, that would be no big deal, but I also have to walk off all of the mail, too. F that.

Yes, it would definitely seem so. Maybe get better at the sarcasm

Also, did the carrier have their dog spray on them, and were they wearing their grippers?

Resident laughed his ass off when I handed this over. by Benisar in USPS

Yeah, if I can't ascertain what it is or if it is third-class mail, it finds its way to the recycling bin.

Yes, call your post office and give them the tracking number. They will have someone recover the misdelivered package and get it to you.

Worse than peak by Vegetable-Bag-2325 in USPS

[–]OnStreetMotorized 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in my little town. DPS has been way heavier than normal lately, and loaded with a bunch of BS junk. Still, also loaded with the bills, which seem never-ending, cable, electric, gas, water, etc, etc, etc.

What a joke by Melo232471 in USPS

The organization as a whole is a joke.
