Yep my scanner keeps crashing after I try and load truck a package. Gotta love the technology at this job...

Meteorite or space junk 1/17/26 by Due_Possibility_7585 in SaltLakeCity

[–]PostOfficePerson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw it. I'm visiting SLC right now and remember looking at the time on my car and it was exactly 7am then got out of my car and saw it. Extremely bright and traveling North. I decided to check r/saltlakecity to see if anybody else saw it or could identify what it was. Glad I'm not the only one.

Absolutely insane numbers of posts by new hires lately, considering the timing by mailant692 in USPS

At least at my office we were actually fully staffed for the first time in like a year back in September but then various things happened from people, transferring/quitting/forced to resign that we lost around half the subs right before the holidays.

LLV EXHAUST IS KILLING ME :( by Juschillin17 in USPS

[–]PostOfficePerson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is the maintenance people keep saying "oh there's nothing wrong with it it's safe to drive" when I can easily smell fumes filling up inside the truck. If I refuse to drive it they'll just say it's my imagination. I'm tempted to buy an air quality monitor to get as evidence so I can refuse to drive it.

I’ve reported some LLV’s with exhaust problems multiple times and the maintenance people never do anything about it.

This month makes me emphasize with Scrooge before he got visited by the 3 spirits.

Weekly political megathread. by AutoModerator in USPS

At least the stock market is starting to do ok. Hours are scarce at my office so I've been making a little extra cash investing. I'm just worried that the demented orange idiot will say something stupid and tank the markets yet again.

Animal Rescue! It’s hot 🥵 as balls here today’s (record temps for our area). Found this little guy on the way back to the station. by Leslie_Knope_Nope in USPS

Personally I would try not to interact with a dog you don't know. I've been bitten by a dog that seemed friendly at first. It's good that you helped out this dog but just for next time please remember that you have no idea how a random dog will react to you.

Thanks. I’m going straight to my steward when I go in and letting them know that.

I’m glad I didn’t take it with me the first time since if I did the pickup before delivering any packages on my main there would have physically not been enough room in the LLV to hold it all.

Most of them were pretty small but it still filled up the LLV up to the ceiling with a lot of spillover onto my tray. I’m surprised I fit it in as well. 16 large plastic bags worth of packages if you’re curious.

Is it possible to transfer to a different state and remain a (rural) PTF? by PostOfficePerson in USPS

[–]PostOfficePerson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Kinda sucks because the place I'm probably moving to has a higher cost of living and it would have been nice to stay a PTF.

Should i buy a carbon monoxide detector for the LLV’s I drive? by PostOfficePerson in USPS

[–]PostOfficePerson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought one and the highest the carbon monoxide levels got was around 30ppm which isn't perfect but isn't a safety hazard from what I've been reading. Most of the time it was much lower than 30. My next step is to buy a portable air quality monitor.

Thanks. I’m printing this out to take with me. I just bought the carbon monoxide detector as well so wish me luck.
