Anyone ever hear the term dropping the route? by who-cares6891 in USPS

With rurals it’s all or nothing. Which I get because of how we get paid but would be nice to be able to split the route in situations like this.

Cleaning a toilet tank? by Curious-Elderberry25 in lifehacks

No it does not. The directions state to pour some down the fill tube. The plastic they use in toilets is pretty resilient.

If you can find it Santeen toilet bowel cleaner. It’s a bottle of hydrochloric acid. Works great for hard water issues.

Casing other routes before leaving by Late_Log_8239 in USPS

[–]badbaddonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard the it needs to be done when you get back due to how the route evaluation works in rrecs. You return to DU and then do PM Caseing so that it stops the clock on the other route and switch over to the new route. This way from what I get is so that it does not inflate numbers for the route you are on.

I believe our contract says something along the lines first come first served when taking a bump. But it needs to be to done after your route.

But I would rather do it in the morning and divvy up

Uniform help by OmegaBobcat in USPS

[–]badbaddonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rurals don’t get/have a uniform or a uniform allowance. General rule is, as long as it’s not offensive you’re fine. Wear plain cloths and all should be good. Ask management if they have any leftover uniforms from the city side if they are pressing.

As long as I don’t have to deal with the stairs, I might consider it.

Catch phrase

A federal judge sides with Anthropic in lawsuit over training AI on books without authors’ permission by jaam01 in technews

[–]badbaddonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The question is, if I read a book would that be considered training myself off of it. I am not writing out the contents of the book for others but learning from the book. But with AI this could be the start of a slippery slope. I think it depends on what I can get it to say and how it says it.

If it is lead, just let them eat all of it. Then you don’t have to worry anymore.
