Regula carriers pay subs $$$ to take part of the route without management authority.. Brownsville texas. This kind of things should not be happening . What a disgrace not being able to complete a route alone…
jeff…..
Sounds good to me. I’m in the Chicago area. Let me know.
I look forward to seeing a ‘piece of crap” in person!!!
to EAS, stick it up your arse!! maybe we should meet and talk it over!! tuff guy!!
Maybe the OIG should look at Jeff’s ip address to find out who he is, and start looking to see where he is discarding his mail. Majority of carriers do a good job everyday. I think Jeff thinks the reason why he has such a good paying job is only for the days when the mail is light. Duh every real hard working carrier knows they get paid well to come through on the tough days. Ask yourself this Jeff how do thousands of letter carriers handle the everyday job of delivering mail so good, but apparently you can’t. Don’t even bother to answer I think we can all guess what your answer would be anyways.
i hope you are all proud of yourselves for catching this letter-carrier. ask yourselves if you can handle the everyday job of delivering the mail. the weather, the scanning, and worst of all, dealing with management. they suck!! the union just makes deals for themselves and doesn’t back us carriers. the whole system is broke so just keep blaming us carriers! go to hell!!!
jeff…….
Spoken like a TRUE LOSER!! The USPS didn’t knock on your door and ask you if you wanted a job, YOU chose the post office!! If you can’t handle or don’t want the job then maybe you should seek employment with Burger King, Wendys or McDonalds. You would be better suited to ask: “Would you like that SuperSized” instead of delivering the mail. If you did the job the right way, maybe you wouldn’t get ‘blamed’ for your inefficiencies.
Hell yeah I’m glad he’s caught and I hope he gets what he deserves. He made all of us hardworking employees of the United States Postal Service who are proud to deliver the mail on all types of weather, scan packages as expected of my work and do it with a smile. Those of you that cries when work is put in front of you should quit. I don’t want you representing what is good in the Postal Service,.
