A lot goes on within the USPS that most people will never know. It is a difficult & time crunching job no matter the time of year. It’s like that daily

I talked to a carrier today who had 2600 hundred letters plus packages... she also had stacks of catalogs and magazines...

"It'll be delivered by the next morning". Yeah, if management doesn't decide to curtail the mail and hold it for a day or two. First-class mail USED to be required to go out the same day it was received.

the reason people quit post office b/c they make people work too much. I don't know why the post office don't hire more people. For example...u dont' want new employees to quit, if they quit, u have to train them again and hire them again..it's wasting goverment money.. That's why they need HIRE more people and don't let people work more than 40 hours a week. People have family and kids..they want to go home and hang out with their kids. If someone can step up and solve this problem, then post office is a great place to work. There are many places that are very BUSY ...and they want people to work overtime.. instead of making people working overtime..why not hire MORE people ?? if u make employees happy then employees will make post office happy...

Show them stealing, breaking, losing, items and not being accountable.
The most wasted tax on the planet is the post office and politicians.
There is no way to complain about employees stealing items which is a federal crime.
