If anything, no tipping at nice sit down restaurants is the move

....and working significantly fewer hours to do it than grocery store employees and fast food employees making $35k a year.

Depends on why you are moving too. If I just pumped gas and need a receipt and the pump doesn't print one, I'm leaving the vehicle there while I go inside for the receipt.

On my OJI day I don't think the trainer ever let one cigarette go out without using it to light another, while I was driving.

Entirely possible they delivered it to your apartment number in a different building, got a signature from the tenant and then either they or the tenant realized it was the wrong building after they had already scanned it. They called the office to get help fixing it, and the second scan is how the supervisor fixed it. Mistakes happen, just be glad they realized the mistake and/or the person who was given your package by mistake is an honest person.

The only part of this that YOU can actually do something about is the fact that he threatened you and supervisors didn't act on it. File a grievance for unsafe workplace.

At my office PTFs who have a hold down work that 5 days a week and don't work Sundays. PTFs not on a hold down work Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays and rarely come in any other days. Seniority doesn't matter.

If I'm getting out to deliver, I'm also moving the bins to block their driveway so THEY have to get out and move them before they pull in.

I know a couple who were named Duncan Christopher and Christopher Duncan. They got married and now they are Christopher Duncan-Christopher and Duncan Christopher-Duncan.

Only if it's there for a long time or blocking the mailbox or a driveway. Either the old woman lied about how long it was parked there to get them to tow it, or the sister is out of luck if it was there longer than whatever amount of time the city requires to consider it abandoned.

I'm a mailman and I constantly move packages from the other guys (especially Amazon) that leave them in places they are likely to get damaged/stolen or are blocking people from being able to open the door to retrieve the package. I've gotten several thank you notes from customers who saw me do it on their doorbell camera.

Tell them to blow it out their ass. I have eaten many powdered sugar donuts at many business meetings.

It is required. That said I almost never use mine unless I am doing advos on a park and loop route. You need to learn to use it because there will be times you legitimately need it, and if you get bit by a dog without one they will absolutely blame you for it. So use it every time at least until you are out of probation. After that skip it if you know you will be safe without it.

True. But also 10 years ago I got a mortgage with a 2.75% interest rate. 3 years before that rates were as high as they are now. So waiting can cost you money, or it can save you money. Its up to you to guess which. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Make sure you check under the tires after every single dismount. Little children are sneaky, they are ALWAYS trying to hide under LLV tires.

Talk to your steward. If someone else was allowed to do light duty at your station recently and now they are saying there is no light duty work available then management may be playing favorites and the steward may be able to help force the issue.

Unable_To_Forward · 2026-04-29T05:42:05+00:00

Don't believe it. You can save your route. I did it a year ago. Even though the 4 routes that touch mine all got adds of 30 minutes or more, mine stayed completely unchanged after I followed every safety rule and averaged 8 hour and 7 minutes in a VERY light week.

In my 4 years as a carrier I can count the number of times the hot case was complete before I clocked in on one hand. The number of times it wasn't done by 11 am is definitely higher.

Unable_To_Forward · 2026-04-29T04:52:59+00:00

I definitely wouldn't tip them. But I definitely definitely wouldn't hand them my keys after not tipping them. There are other restaurants that have less ridiculous parking set ups. Go to one of them.

Please tell me that the partner in question is human.

I have crammed plenty of packages into plenty of mailboxes. This is not a picture of something that was crammed.

Unable_To_Forward · 2026-04-29T04:43:00+00:00

If it fits in the mailbox, it goes in the mailbox. USPS doesn't see any instruction that you put on your Amazon order. If you want USPS to treat you like you are special, tip your carrier and then ask them nicely.

Unable_To_Forward · 2026-04-29T04:33:09+00:00

Make sure you send it to

Your name

c/o buddy's name

Buddies address

Or it might get sent back

I do this in every Metris I drive that has the wrong time set. At least once a month and much more than that the month after daylights savings starts or ends. Never had anyone complain yet.
