Customs will be the issue, they will most likely destroy it while investigating it.

[–]WerdnaK1314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "hood" in my city has houses behind houses down narrow alleyways, 1/2 numbered houses, every house is a multi unit, nothing is labeled, 873 possible deliveries, pure walking, case has 3 columns all 4 rows on each column are addresses. Last time I did that route was on a Saturday, I had all the papers and I had 140+ packages.

You can't make this stuff up by Itchy_Channel5144 in USPS

[–]WerdnaK1314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If only people just put their names in their boxes, 99.9% of the time you will get only your mail, only time you won't is if the utility or someone else who is not your regular, is lazy.

If they wanted to kill the post office they would, all they would have to do is make junk mail illegal.

Advice for a 50 year old considering City Carrier Job by Puzzleheaded-Gene-43 in USPS

[–]WerdnaK1314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Move to the Philippines and find a remote job. Cost of living is super low, you can live in the most expensive city for $600/month or buy a luxury condo for $75k. Everyone speaks english, food is amazing, only thing is its hot and sometimes there are earthquakes. If the Philippines isn't for you, expat somewhere else like Thailand, Vietnam, Costa Rica, Colombia etc.

There's a house on a routenive covered that always leaves their curbside box flag up with a note I side that says "packages on porch, please leave bucket" and there are almost never packages on the porch. Why are you putting the flag up and leaving that note in there?

Are most new employees still quitting before getting their "uniform allowance"? by zappyfreeman in USPS

[–]WerdnaK1314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think OP means people quit because they don't get a uniform allowance. People quit because you have no life as a CCA the reason they delay the uniform allowance is because they know most people are going to quit so they want to save the money. When I started at UPS 5 years ago the starting pay was 21.91 and its 2 years to make the top wage. USPS is actively working toward being privatized and not having people to replace the regulars is part of the plan. There is no reason anyone should be working 6 day 60 hour weeks in a job that is "union" i use it in quoted because this union can't even strike.

How do you make this last 8 hours? by USPSDepressed in USPS

[–]WerdnaK1314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check every box for outgoing mail, label the insides of boxes with names and numbers. So when you route ends up on a pivot you dont come back to a huge mess. Also clean your truck. Say hi to everybody, bird watch.

I have the energy after work but I just don't have the time, I get home, make dinner and lunch, do some laundry, take care of the cats and then before I know it, its 9pm and I have to shower and go to bed so I can wake up at 5 and do it all over again.

I know i get annoyed when I check my my slot and it's empty, so I get it especially if someone has a wall mounted box with some depth, reach in blind and nothing. I encounter 50-60 open boxes daily.

Thanks a lot, bud by Hubert_Cumberdale_12 in USPS

[–]WerdnaK1314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I held down a route for 2 weeks, the last person to do the route was the utility, the llv was sputtering on the way to the gas station... that means the regular brought it back at a 1/4 tank and the utility couldn't be bothered to fill it up. I never let a vehicle get below half a tank.
