1/ I am so tired of people JUST NOW saying USPS sucks and blaming Trump for it. My daddy delivered mail for over 40 years and as the years went on, the more he complained about its decline. Not only were they not hiring from within, they were hiring fresh
2/ out of college graduates with degrees in sociology and psychology that couldn’t find jobs in their own fields. They had NO experience, only a piece of paper that apparently made them worthy of managing dozens of life-carriers. When dad would come home after work, he was
3/ always so frustrated with the hard core pushing that they were doing to deliver 2 days worth of mail in one afternoon. He was always discouraged from overtime, and bitched at by people that had never even seen a route. He had always loved his job, and made so many good
4/ friends along the way, so he stuck it out. But by the time he retired, he told me, “That place is eventually going to run itself into the ground.” If my daddy were alive today, he would be shaking his head in disappointment, mumbling, “what did I say?”
