      Pros

      The only good thing about this job is the pay and benefits for someone who didn’t go to college

      Cons

      For some stations you have to wait a minimum of 4 years to get a regular position. Which means a consistent schedule, consistent pay, and get the full government benefits. Also after you become a regular your pay will drop because you’re not getting overtime. Constantly getting sent to different stations that will try not to pay you for the day. The post office tries to run like the military instead of an actual business. From a logistics standpoint the routes make 0 sense. There would be multiple routes at 1 stop which is costing extra gas and ware on the vehicles.

        Pros

        Paychecks are good and if you stick around for over 2 years you become a regular employee which means better benefits

        Cons

        Benefits are terrible when you're "part-time." You will literally work 6 days a week 12 hour days every day. Even when you convert to reg, they'll still try to overwork you.

      Just finished an application to a university that required me to enter all my work experience twice. First under employer history then AGAIN under work history. I am hoping no one else is that persistent or stubborn and I will be the only applicant! Oh, and you had to attach your resume too.
