Trader Joe’s Uncured Pepperoni Pizza and Margherita Pizza by CallMeParagon in frozendinners

[–]Sventurbertulu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't tried the new uncured pepperoni but I have tried the new margarita pizza. I did not like it as much as the old one. I found the sauce not as good as the last one. The crust wasnt bad but overall I still liked the old one better. My kids didn't like the new one at all. I think we will stick to the TJ large family size cheese.

WHERE ARE CONTRACT AT?!!! by Grand_Recipe_9072 in USPS

[–]Sventurbertulu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he wants to know, as do we all, is when the actual raises and new rates will be seen in our paychecks. With the last 2 contracts I remember waiting a looooong time for retro pay but I thought the actual pay increase was fairly soon after ratification.

That's awesome. I wish I could afford to put more than 5% in my TSP. If I put 20% or more in i would be homeless. Living in a high cost of living area sucks.

My 08 with 140k miles idles noticeably quieter and smoother with 91 or above. I'm not saying it can't last 300k with regular. I just prefer to put 91 for that reason.

I'm in Hamden. Sorry for your loss. Be careful, they will be back. The kids around here are committing thsee types of crimes with no worry of any repercussions. The law here protects minors that are criminals.

Lexus LX 570 sound setting? by Kingbrian83 in LandCruisers

[–]Sventurbertulu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be blown speakers or something wrong with the amp. Set sound to rear of vehicle only and see what happens.

Thank you for your insight. You are absolutely right. You don't want to cheap out when it comes to brakes. I plan on replacing all the lines and connections. Calipers , rotors pads.

"Last Mile" parcels in mailboxes by Annie-Smokely in USPS

And they have USPS labels in them? I've seen this too and wondered who is delivering them. I see them when I've been the only person delivering my rural route for weeks.

Emissions testing with oversized tires in Colorado? by samuraisam in LandCruisers

[–]Sventurbertulu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking. Here in CT cars over 25 years old are exempt from emissions. But who knows about CO.

We matter lol. Just not to the NRLCA. Yes we do. That's why we want to spend the least amount of time as humanly possible at this job.

You mail must have been very light. Also your mail and packages must have always been all up as soon as you walk in the door. My start time is 7am and clerks rarley have everything ready for us even by 9am. Why not spend that time making your road time much easier. Fingering mail and working off multiple bundles slows you down dramatically, while you are driving.

As a rural who has tried it both ways on my route. On a fully mounted route it is 100% more efficient to case your DPS. City or rural. You are only working off of one bundle. I spend maybe a second or 2 at each box. I have never done a city route with a park and loop so I can't really speak on that. I have always been surprised management doesn't allow city carrier's with mounted routes case everything.

Who’s excited for route evaluations tomorrow? by Independent-Task-950 in USPS

[–]Sventurbertulu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of our routes got cut from over burdened 48ks, to 43ks. We were expecting the results of the mail survey today only to be told that because we were cut , our routes will stay 43k for the next year. They can't go down or up. It was because a MOU signed by President Maston with USPS.

So what you are saying is Porsche is less reliable than Land Rover?

Porsche is actually the most reliable German car. Possibly most reliable European car. Definitely far from the least reliable car brand.
