EXACTLY. My postwoman has been doing my mail for 7 years. SEVEN YEARS. To this very day she does this with the signature cards. I report her every single time she does it in hopes that I see someone new doing my mail. Usually the superiors back at the P.O. are pissed that she is doing this still. Certified mail..anything...I have to drive 9 miles and stand in line to pick something up I could have just gotten at my front door had she bothered to get out of her mail truck and walk up to the door.
One day years ago she was complaining about her pay...$18.25 an hour. I laughed really hard and asked “How much do you think you should be getting paid?”, she said “At least $25.00 an hour...for the crap I have to put up with.”
Stunning.
According to the local conservative talk host, the *average* pay for USPS employees is $83,000.
Yes, that is my mailman to a tee. Whenever I have to go to the post office to pick up a package, I almost always have to stand in a long line stretching to the parking lot while the postal employees complain about not making enough money and that we need a bigger post office. It’s hard to be sympathetic to their complaints when they don’t do their damn job. It’s not like my front door is hard to get to.
