US Postal Service reviews

Management is terrible, many areas of micromanagement,

The rushing mostly. When I say this is the easiest and hardest job at the same time, I don't expect anyone who's never done this to understand. In the beginning (your first month) it is going to feel impossible and you will consider quitting everyday because it feels like too much information to retain. You will eventually retain it all. I promise. The rushing is the USPS way of life. I came from a medspa wearing scrubs that promoted a calm, quiet, peaceful environment. The P.O. is not that! It's also pretty dirty. Don't but expensive shoes and definitely buy spray shout to wash your shirts. Lol. As a CCA, you will have a different route every day, a different vehicle every day and a different finish time every day. There is no work life balance but I just moved to Florida and don't know anyone here so I appreciate working 6 days a week at the moment. Lunch time is only 30 mins. Some ghetto people with nasty attitudes work here. I would not recommend giving the post office a try if you are lazy, too concerned about having a social life, have thin skin or just a slow moving person in general. You are such a tiny piece in such an enormous system with the postal service. Nevertheless, you will be a federal employee representing the federal government. If you have an issue conducting yourself with poise, professionalism or have an issue wearing a uniform (clean, pressed and appropriate) then this isn't the job for you.
