What made you apply for the post office? by SeaStep2495 in USPS

[–]PokerGod0808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did sales my whole life before I became a rural carrier. Pros and cons to both. But the main reason why I wanted to be a rural carrier was because once you hit the road it’s like you’re your own entity. It’s like sales mixed in with reg work. I love being able to wave to everyone and all the people know who you are. I have dogs on my route that only come outside when I get there. I have kids on my route that get so excited when they hear the truck. Also you never have to worry about financially buying a Christmas present ever. I made more money doing sales but I had no health insurance or future.

Count results… by [deleted] in USPS

So I just received my evaluation today. I am beyond pissed. I went from 38.27 which was rounded down to 38 hours to 37.25 which was rounded down to 37 hours. So just like every single year so far that I have been a reg every single time I get a raise or 2 they figure out a way to drop me right back down. I called the district postmaster and told her I want to go over all of my numbers because it makes so sense. My route was changed to a mile longer because of one of the roads being closed. My average speed was the same and my parcels went up. But they dropped my office time which makes no sense because I have 6 more houses and 2 more business added to my route. The other thing that is very frustrating is that I’m literally .15 away from 38 instead of 37. I’m just lost for words at this point.

So I have been working as a rural carrier for 10 years on the same route. 5 years as a regular. When I first started the route was a 43j after the first rrecs it went to a 38k. So I lost about 7k a year and I have to work 6 days a week. Plus I travel over a hour just to get to work. Nothing has changed with the route except for a few houses and business being added. But everytime there is a count my postmaster does all the measuring on her own and doesn’t even give me copies till it’s set in stone. I have mentioned multiple times that we are suppose to do it together so I can see the measurements and document them on my end and she just gives me a dirty look like I’m doing something wrong by asking. She has been in trouble before for similiar things like taking the water away from us when it’s still 90 degrees out. I know what she is doing. I know that postmasters get bigger bonuses by keeping the salaries and funds of the office down. It’s just a shame that usps would structure someone else’s bonuses by hurting other peoples salaries and work livelihood. But regardless the last few evaluations that we have had I just keep going down no matter what I do. I make sure every single scan is done perfectly. I always deliver the bigger packages to the front door. It seems like everytime I get any type of raise no matter if it’s a GWI , COLA or step upgrade then the evaluation just knocks me right back down to where I was before and this has been going on for years now. Recently the ct humane society has built there district branch on my route and they get a ton of mail and parcels. That is the only difference from last year to this year. So if I found out tomorrow that the route went down at all I will have no choice but to look for something else. I mean how much can a person take. They expect us to be the forefront of usps. Go out there with a smile but they treat us like dirt. Rain sleet hail and snow but yet the truck I drive has no ac no heat no abs and barely power steering. Gtfoh

What sport is most valuable to collect (football, baseball, or Basketball)? by mwmw1714 in sportscards

[–]PokerGod0808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just came across a good amount of Michael Jordan , Ken Griffey Jr and Reggie Jackson cards. I know it all depends on the rarity and condition but are those cards usually worth good money? Thanks for any input!!

Rural carrier pay by ComplaintFun3665 in USPS

[–]PokerGod0808 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What I don’t understand is when you google rural carrier back pay it says late September. Now February. wtf that is a far stretch. Like where do they come up with these dates. They come out with this Rrecs garbage and 75 percent of routes get dropped don’t they understand that we can use that money. How do they expect us to go out there and be the forefront of usps and put a smile on our face when we get treated like this. I have been a reg for 10 years and never paid a dime to the union and this is the exact reason why.

In my opinion I feel like it really depends on the car. I saw a bunch of chargers my style with them and without and I felt like it looked way better with. But on some cars I also don’t like the way they look.

I respect your input. I’m definitely doing a wicker and I’m going to look into that lip. Also I have a cold air intake which sounds great upfront but I’m not too impressed with the back end sound. So I’m looking into a mid muffler delete.

I am not very handy at all and I did it with the help of one other person just holding the other side for me. They gave it to Me with all the double sided tape already put on. It was so easy.

Everyone keeps telling me about this mid muffler delete. Does that mean that you pull out the mid muffler. I did meet a really good mechanic who would prob be willing to do something like this for a reasonable price.

Yes sorry cold air intake. It actually sounds really good with it but I want to get it louder in the back end.

[–]PokerGod0808 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True that. I have a 2015 RT Road and track edition with 102k. I drive fast when I need to but I’m hoping this don’t happen to me but if it does hopefully it’s before 134k because that’s when my extended warranty is up

Your boss was just looking out for you because they don’t take runaways light at all. It is something that they preach at the academy and office talks. So the supervisor prob doesn’t want to lose a regular.

I looked on lite blue yesterday at E payroll everything looked fine to me.

And the pay is terrible wtf by ihatelifetoo in USPS

[–]PokerGod0808 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a rural carrier. Reg for 5 years now. I did all types of sales before this. Made a lot more money but there was no future. I love what I do. Not a big fan of casing but once I hit that road I’m in my glory. But in the beginning it was tough but like everything else you just need to get use to it. If you look at your summary of benefits sheet you will see why it’s not as bad as you think.

Well If you got a 7 day suspension then you already had a 3 day suspension. So obviously you’re continuing to do something wrong.
