On the job at the Post Ofice


I not so fondly remember those so called Carriers who became supervisors and forgot your name and how impossible it is to do 10 hours of works in 8. Who made those statements like " just case those 4 extra feet of bulk mail " when you are supposed to be pulling down to get out on time on your 8 hour day. Call you in on your day off and promise you help then after you case mail for two hours past leaving time want to give you 30 minutes help. Then feel sorry for the poor bastard who gets that "30 minutes". Then fondly remembering being that Carrier who gets the "30 minutes". I never knew 30 minutes could take so long. Then it is the streets from hell where you can't find half the addresses and seem to bring back more mail than you took out. If you are the giver you receive all the mail back and the next day sucks too. And Heaven forbid if we have a holiday, it's just double the work/fun. Two weeks off is 3 months of getting your mail straightened out ie: mail out of vacant houses mail boxes, people running down the street after you, and that horrible pile of valid mail sent thru markup and send back that they won't let you go through. Enough off my chest today. The Mailmam
