I am currently a Postal employee. I have been a carrier, carrier tech, EAS 16 supervisor, and now I am a manual clerk. Like a friend of mine said one time, "the P.O. is the only business that activly hires Vets. (many combat Vets) and then screws with them!" Have you been reading the papers from Calif.? Delivering until 10pm!? come on!
We have had 23 clerks either retire, die, transfer or whatever and their jobs never get filled. We are just expected to "git'er done". The only preasure that is on this job is that which you LET mgt. put on you. Mgt. comes down and says that this has to be done by such and such time and we'll see if it does or not. You can't fire me for working!! (My a$$ busting days are long gone) Had a supervisor tell me that I wasn't up to her (and there is another whole can of worms IMHO)expectations, Oh well, guess youll either learn to live with it or you'll move on.
